I’m not new to link aggregators/communities, but new to those outside of Reddit. About a month ago I joined Lemmy and today my curiosity led me to Piefed, although I’ve come across the name before.

My research told me Piefed is developing at a much faster pace than Lemmy, is that true? I like the onboarding of Piefed better, because it allows you to select things you might be interested in as part of the process, which is helpful. Overall, it’s a much more guided approach.

I’ve also gotten to know it doesn’t really matter for the average user which of the platforms one joins. So I’m specifically posting this question on a community on Lemmy through my Piefed account.

I’m based in Europe if that makes a difference, which I believe it doesn’t. Nonetheless I’m happy to read your thoughts. Thanks

    I started on Lemmy world and I was happy there for a while. It was my first Fediverse instance and account. Then I noticed all the 🏴‍☠️ comms were blocked, so I switched to PieFed and I’ve been pretty happy ever since.

    Both have pros and cons. I’m not a fan of the admins of Lemmy with ml and I don’t agree with everything Rimu does with Piefed. I use Blorp on my iPhone for both formats. Overall though, I’ve had a better experience on PieFed than Lemmy, even if it’s mostly because I get to see pirate content again.
