Thanks for everything Demigodrick! Anything of particular interest in the coming Lemmy 1.0 update? Do you prefer Lemmy or Piefed from an administrative stand point? Take care, and happy upcoming birthday!

I’m more comfortable with Lemmy because I’ve been doing it 3 times longer than piefed, built all my own custom bot stuff, and had to get comfortable with the API. The admin side of things is also way simpler in my opinion, but Piefed offers a lot more in terms of customisation, such as plugins and custom built in pages. Pros and cons both ways to be honest. Piefed is also under very rapid development vs Lemmy which is very measured and tested. Again, pros and cons either way!
I’m looking forward to both plugins and private communities in Lemmy 1.0!

Pf looks exciting. I was going to go with lemmy but apparently usernames cap at 20 characters.

i’m grateful you took on the challenge of adding piefed to your workload. if i had to choose, i also would probably go with lemmy, but…options!! i’m just glad both platforms are available in .zip
thank you!
