    good news, nobody who like Piefed has to use it. we’ve gotten PyLova to the point it’s running Quokk.au and Anarchist.Nexus, and we’ve not only removed the censorship and the bias, but we’ve also improved the UI, made some new themes, and most important of all patched some security vulnerabilities.

    at this point it’s better than Piefed in every way.

      This is my first hearing of PyLova, could I get a rundown? Is it a fork of piefed? Seperate project? Are there things it has that piefed doesnt, or things piefed has that PyLova doesnt currently? What’s the state of app support (I assume not there presently, which is totally fair)

        For me in particular:

        • reactions (prevents rank abuse)
        • tags
        • mirror integration
        • multi-com interactivity
        • remote instance cannot delete posts/comments by default (gaslight abuse)
        • <img height="auto">

        Other stuff idcb:

        • polls
        • comment voting (stackoverflow)

          one of the biggest for me is the ability to disable downvotes for people who aren’t from trusted servers. we have a lot of :slopper: downvoting anything genAI they see. restricting downvotes to exclusively FAF instances wiped out the problem.

            I use the term “rank” now, because pylova/fed already implemented comment voting, as in, if you post a question, anyone can vote for answers. It’s meant to give pylova stackoverflow behaviours: best voted answer get pinned up. Ranking a comment or post doesn’t affect how folks pin comments on a question post.

      What’s the differences between PyLova and Lemmy? Why use it over Lemmy?
