    I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day
    https://old.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/1ijmkc0/make_the_switch_away_from_meta/

    Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc.
    If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.

    I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.

      Some additional features that PieFed has:

      • You can create posts with polls.
      • Crossposts shows comments from everywhere that something is crossposted to (organized into their own sections)
      • Feeds for combining multiple communities into one.
      • You can blur images with spoiler tags instead of having to use NSFW.
      • You can tag posts and then filter down posts based on those tags within a community.
      • You can set a time/date for when something gets posted.

      That's just what I can think of off the top of my head. Otherwise a more complete list can be found here:

        So he doesn't like the political "tankie" ideas, so he implemented a social credit score to improve it?

                  PieFed = Lemmy but better. (In my opinion)

                  They share the same content, but PieFed has more features and better UX.

                  I'm typing this from PieFed right now

                    Nope, it's its own thing. It's federated, so you can view piefed content on lemmy and vice versa, but it's a separate platform built in a different language by someone else. I like it better mainly because the lemmy devs are transphobes who are fond of the idea of mass murdering their political opponents.

                      There's a few different options. There's also Mbin and a couple others that I couldn't name off the top of my head.

                        Its a similar base but distinct in feature set and backend.

                          It’s a different software stack, both server and client. But it uses the same protocol as Lemmy for federation (same story with kbin/ mbin.) so all those talk to eachother.

                              Agreed, but choice fatigue also needs to be considered.
                              Pick your favorite and promote it to people.

                                Revolt got at cease and desist for the name. They renamed it to Stoat.

                                  My god, thank you for putting the names under the logos. I've seen too many people just put the logos without any text because it's "clean", but then the viewers have no idea what to search for lol

                                    Yes, but if you try to recommend people to use Mbin you have to explain why they have to call shitposts in meme communities "articles" in "magazines".

                                      Its fun. Honestly though, we are so similar its like choosing apple or cherry pie. It comes down to preference.

                                      Fediverse means lemmy/piefed/etc..etc... can thrive and we all have a better experience.

                                        Take a look over at !peertube@lemmy.world It would be great if more people knew about it and posted/interacted.

                                          People are fleeing to another close source centralized app that’s not federated. People will use anything but Fediverse. 😞
