  What are the pros/cons of piefed for someone who has only used lemmy?

  source

  • Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    All the comments from all cross posts on a single page is great. You can also add your own user flair like you could on Reddit, which lemmy doesn’t support. I haven’t messed with it much yet, but the ability to make lists of communities into feeds also seems really useful.

      Votes are private as well.

    I haven’t used piefed myself but I wouldn’t want to switch to it because I feel like it gives more power to downvotes and karma (or “reputation” as they call it):

    • Comments with -10 score are collapsed by default.
    • People who get downvoted a lot end up with a ‘low reputation’ indicator next to their name. You’ll know it when you see it.
    • Upvotes in meme communities do not add to reputation.

    Those are three of the twelve points listed as differences to lemmy on their features page.

    I also don’t agree with some of the points in their article on “PieFed features for growing healthy communities”.

      Yeah I’m not going to move to that either, also private votes seems like it’ll be a nightmare. Good luck combating all but the most obvious vote manipulation.

      That seems aimed to create a very closed echo chamber.

      The “low quality” thing seems… Kinda bad. If you mostly post in “low-quality” communities you’ll gradually lose karma? That sounds like it’s just punishing people who are more interested in shitposty meme communities.

      Well, that doesn’t matter for blåhaj, which disables downvotes, at least

      I see what you mean on the growing healthy communities bit.

      That plus private votes, nah, I’m good.

      I find the reputation system good, however it should use percentages instead of points to make it different than what the karma system in Reddit was. People are less likely to farm for upvotes when it can only show 100% max.

      isn’t a low reputation indicator exactly what a troll would want?

  • gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I asked that question recently and got some helpful responses,

    lemmy.world/post/30977919

    tl;dr PieFed has different people behind it, a few more features, and is written in Python instead of Rust (I’m not a coder or an instance host, so don’t ask me what that distinction means, but I’ve anecdotally seen more people saying python is easier to work with than rust than the other way around),

    PieFed communities federate with Lemmy communities, tho, so no matter which kind of instance you’re going through as a user you should be able to interact with all the communities (assuming your instance admins haven’t decided to defederate with the other instance for some reason)

  If Voyager adds piefed support I’m definitely jumping over

  • MolecularCactus1324@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I could see it. Lemmy devs are weirdos and I’m not sure they’re the right group to attract and grow a Reddit alternative.

    source
  • Eldritch@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I’ve already created an account on a piefed instance. Planning for the future. I’m sure Voyager will get it sorted.

      i will create one when EE. is fianlly sunsetted.

  Interesting is this a reaction to something I’m unaware of?

  • walden@sub.wetshaving.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I can only speculate, but PieFed seems great for a community like blahaj. It makes it super easy root out disrespectful users.

    • Ledericas@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      they had problems with transphobia from various lemmy instances, this is a way to limit that.

  • irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    nothing that I’m aware of.

    source

    • Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Well, lemm.ee shutdown lead some communities to move to Piefed
