1st Feb is #GlobalSwitchDay

I've been using lemmy.world with the boost app. Should I look into piefed? Am I missing anything? I mean I'm happy with what I got, but is the grass any greener?
It has a lot of cool features, I'm almost tempted to switch but am waiting on the app I use to finish supporting it first.
-
Here's the writeup about it, going around
So it basically is a worse version of Reddit's karma.
-
can anyone eli5 what the difference is from piefed to lemmy? i have a lemmy account, do i have a use for a piefed accnt too?
PieFed has flair and topics, which make it easier to find content you like.
-
Hey, hey you.
Get some.
Much better!
-
Essentially, yes. And maybe that's part of why people jumping from reddit like it so much, but personally, I don't think the things like this that Piefied is doing are good for the fediverse ecosystem
-
Yuck. Do you have any evidence?
Thanks. Disgusting
-
Is there a federated version, either in the works or planned? Because otherwise, Stoat is the only option.
Roomy says they plan to integrate federation in the future, though it doesn't have it now.

Even your chief propagandist agrees that you're deplorable.

I used Lemmy for months, mostly in the browser and my UX was absolutely horrible.
The default browser UI sucks.
I had to try many different settings and eventually through a lot of effort found the Photon UI, which is nice.
The vast majority of users just won't go through that effort. PieFed's default UI is quite clean and modern and much nicer to use, which is why I promote it instead
I tried out a handful of Lemmy apps and Thunder is what I used for most of it but then switched to Summit. There's aspects I like about both and aspects I dislike about both, but they don't have a bad UI.

oh cool. thanks for the info :3
-
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?
-
Maybe add Matrix as a Discord alternative?
The Element application is solid now. Still I think it'd be a rough transition for most discord users. But more users probably means more potential for developer interest
-
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.
-
So why don't you go post that in reply to user in your instance saying this about you?
-
Who is deb?

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?
-

Why dont you mind your own business?
-
Instead of recommending Lemmy in general, you should recommend a specific instance which matches the audience. For example someone posted about piefed.ca in /r/BuyCanadian. Or you can link to a different frontend like vger.app.
I did make a redesign to join-lemmy.org recently so that new users can reach the registration page with a single click. I am also curious about any suggestions you have to improve the onboarding.
That person was me.
I've promoted Lemmy in the past only to be met with comments complaining about the 'dogshit UX' and tankeis.
So I switched to promoting PieFed instead, and have had no such complaints.

The default browser UI sucks.
How long ago? It was a bit flaky a couple of years ago but for me now it's perfect - like Reddit UI before it enshittified.
I'm sorry but the default Lemmy UI is objectively bad, it breaks so many UX principles.
Photon is good, but go to Lemmy.world and it looks like a website built in the early 90's
