That's a very good question. I don't have a good answer ATM. I have both because I'm on the fence.
Lemmy and piefed both scratch the topic discovery itch. Both are excellent software.
Piefed pros:
1. Topics (collection of communities) are awesome to subscribe to.
2. One of the best fediverse integrations out there.
3. The python is easy to read.
4. Mod tools are great.
5. The main dec is a treasureLemmy pros:
- Very reddit like UI.
- Lots of apps phone or otherwise.
- Very well supported by admins of the bigger instances
Lemmy has an easier way to post than piefed. The selection of communities is a bit better. Piefed is much easier to stand up on home servers (I did it once). It's also seeing a large amount of dev work right now. And as I've said before it has much better fediverse integration than Lemmy.

Piefed /Lemmy for keeping up with topics.

Pixelfed for my dog pictures and other people's pets.
Peertube mostly for my family (dog or otherwise) videos.and subscriptions. I have around 40 now :)

- Comment on Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forks 3 days ago:
I think your right as well. Most manufacturers don't actively go after such projects unless they hit the bottom line.
Notable exceptions are old licenced games that may hit rerelease and someone came up with a way to decomp it. The policies are all over the place.

Yep and you can dictate the sync time. It's great.
- Comment on Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forks 5 days ago:
We are literally in a thread about a takedown in GH. But if you go to other sites, they have the repo up.
Suyu, Nuzu, Uzuy, Torzu, and Sudachi have all been taken down. Youtube-dl got taken down until public outcry. The number of takedowns since 2022 have only increased over the years. 2024 being the highest amount.
I'm glad the repos above are not yet being taken down, I truly am. But GitHub is just Microsoft at the end of the day.
We are also literally on platforms (Lemmy/piefed) that have chosen codeberg over GitHub for their main git hosting.
- Comment on Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forks 5 days ago:
Just a reminder don't have emulators on GitHub. They work with big companies to make sure they are taken down. Forks do nothing to help since it's easy for them to find now.
