Something to help people lead to the Fediverse

[gardengeek@europe.pub]

I recently contacted a content creator at youtue asking if they might also share their content on peertube as they have the rights to do so. Maybe this is a way of getting more content.

Since the videos are already made for yt it shouldn't be a lot of more work to do for creators.

Please elaborate. What’s better on Piefed?

[asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev]

It has more features than Lemmy atm, such as custom feeds, flairs or tags or whatever you call them, community moving, etc. (Some of which will also come to Lemmy in v1.0.0):

Since it uses Python and not Rust, it can be developed faster* => faster development and more first time contributions.

Of course it isn't perfect, it has its downsides as any other software. You might also find it more attractive if you don't like the Lemmy devs' political views.

Though it is a bit opinionated, it's good to have another alternative in the threadiverse.

[truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

It could also be lemmy/piefed since both are interoperable.

[blackn1ght@feddit.uk]

I wish there were a better name that represents lemmy & piefed. I know "threadiverse" is probably the "correct" name but it's a bit... shit.

[nocturne@piefed.social]

Piefed is a perfectly fine alternative to Reddit.

[nocturne@piefed.social]

Mlem is doing a pretty good job of adding features as their apis become available. I have a feeling the next TestFlight will have polls added.

[coelacanth@feddit.nu]

Agreed. I know you can technically browse tiktok on PC in a browser, but realistically that is not really how people interact with it.

As long as Loops doesn't have a phone app, it is not a TikTok replacement.

[biotin7@sopuli.xyz]

Well let's add facebook & discord alts as well.

[quadraturesurfer@piefed.social]

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?

[zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Fuck lemmy and its tankies

[blinfabian@feddit.nl]

[hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz]

Awesome! Definitely need to check that out.

[darkness343@lemmy.world]

Piefed? Wasn't the replacement Lemmy?

[dannymac@sh.itjust.works]

PieFed is just a Lemmy instance, no?

[toomanypancakes@piefed.world]

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.

[zorque@lemmy.world]

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.

[zorque@lemmy.world]

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

[jaybone@lemmy.zip]

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.
