      Piefed has quite a few features that Lemmy doesn’t have:

      • multicommunities
      • onboarding process asking new joiners what they are into
      • crossposts comments consolidation
      • communities moderation features
      • posts and user flairs
      • keyword filters

      https://join.piefed.social/features/

      Lemmy should get there in version 1.0, but they still don’t have any precise timeframe for that release, and still need to do some testing https://lemmy.ml/comment/23570258

      You might see a few people discrediting Piefed for some optional filters it offers, but all of those filters are configurable by admins and disabled by default: https://piefed.zip/c/fediverse/p/1005977/piefed-admin-settings-that-allow-to-enable-or-disable-content-filters-they-are-disabled-by

            Lol, why? I don’t use Piefed and besides, I work on my own open source project.

            But seriously, why would I contribute to a project I don’t use and have no association with?

              Because it would address what you talk about above. You dont like it, fix it. Ive done it on quite a few fedi services, its not terribly hard. It makes the world just a tiny bit better.

        Are these features available on mobile apps? Because I mostly use Lemmy on Jerboa

          I recommend MULTIVERSE, the anarcho-antirealist PieFed server. We have a karma system the same as Reddit, which you’re used to, and we don’t do any extra processing of the score. Some PieFed sites ignore karma earned on meme communities to prevent repost farming, but on MULTIVERSE, we just look at upvotes - downvotes, and unlike Reddit, your karma score means absolutely nothing for your ability to post on communities.

            Does it still prevent people from replying to people that blocked them so the conversation can continue without the blocker?

      They are similar platforms and they federate, i.e. you can see all Lemmy content with a Piefed account and vice versa.

      PieFed updates faster, is responsive to suggestions and user concerns, has way more features such as polls, topics (groups of communities that can be made by users, helps to browse all comms related to a topic) automated posts, it combines cross-post comments into 1 page, etc.

      And the Lemmy devs are transphobes, genocide deniers, support Russia invading Ukraine, etc. so there’s an ethical component to people not supporting it through using it.

      Because I’m sure “they’ll” come and rage here once they see this post I’ll pre-empt it and say the dev for PieFed is not perfect, no one is, and they’ve got some code around minimising meme images and 4chan content based on their personal preferences, but that stuffs all optional and can be turned on or off by the instance admins.

          Any PieFed user can confirm the features are correct.

          I could go digging through posts to find your well documented history of it, but I’ll quote your guy here because I have this on hand already and any ml user is going to trust their word.

          Dessalines has a whole link spam dedicated to genocide denial and spreading Russian propaganda on Ukraine.

          Or do you mean posting the previous thread on the brigading hatejerk comm?

            Nice screenshot by the way, which leaves out 90% of the actual comment. Link for comparison. I wont even get into the other deceptions, you really are true to your name.

              The rest of the comment isn’t about you, so why would I include it?

              What a deceptive reply you’ve made trying to frame it as if I left out information that reflected differently on you.

                Ah yes because one sentence by someone you dislike is enough basis to judge a different person that you dislike. Why dont you do something useful with your live, instead of hating on people who actually create something useful?

                  One sentence literally saying your views on the subject are deplorable are great evidence of your shitty views when that person is one of the most trusted figures in your instance.

                  Why do you think anything about Rimu not liking tankies validates your deplorable views? That was clearly an attempt at deception.

        All the people upvote you, it’s only “them” who downvote you. You have a clear picture of the world around you!

          I said nothing about votes.

          I’m talking about the hatejerk comm where they brigaded from the last time this image was posted and spammed it with misinformation.
