It’s a fork of PieFed, focused on empowering users with new features and removing design choices that take away from users (vote quotas, hidden censorship, etc)
I run my own Lemmy instance, would it make sense to migrate to piefed/this fork?
Going from Lemmy to PieFed is a huge mess, and as far as I know quokk.au is the only instance to completely swap over from running Lemmy to PF.
I would say if you’re happy with Lemmy to continue using it, v1.0 should be out soon with some pretty cool new features. If you’re wanting to try out the PieFed/PyLova experience, be warned that such a move over would lose everything you have to date and may cause syncing issues with same named users/communities that previously existed.
Thank you. I am pretty ok with Lemmy, so no need to switch I guess…
Good, hope for 1.0 then, tbh I just pull my containers periodically without even checking which news are there
Are any instances using it though? I’m newish to Lemmy, so I don’t understand how I would access it.
Quokk.au and Anarchist.Nexus run it currently. There are a few more who have expressed interest and may one day swap over.
It’s the same as Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed, different instances run different interoperable Threadiverse software. So to use it, you would need to be a member of an instance running it.
Nice to see that Anarchist.nexus moved!
