Something to help lead people to the Fediverse
(thelemmy.club)
I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day
https://old.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/1ijmkc0/make_the_switch_away_from_meta/
Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc. If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.
I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.
Please elaborate. What’s better on Piefed?
Some additional features that PieFed has:
That's just what I can think of off the top of my head. Otherwise a more complete list can be found here: https://join.piefed.social/features/
ok you got me interested
EDIT :
wait what? I might not have the whole lore but this reads as "communism" is not allowed. I guess that's a feature for some people.
Awesome! Definitely need to check that out.
Best feature, a working block feature.
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): https://join.piefed.social/features/
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.
Whatever happened to kbin -> mbin? That was another early threadiverse alternative, but I don't hear much about it anymore.
Mbin still exists https://fedidb.com/software/mbin
although the biggest instance, fedia.io, no longer allows anonymous viewing, which is kind of a shame
Thanks. I was wondering if mbin was still actively being used and developed.
looking at their Github they're still very active in development! If you want to follow their news !mbinReleases@gehirneimer.de
Cool, thanks!
Mbin is not as popular as Lemmy or Piefed, so nobody talks about it. Even before Piefed started being popular, Kbin was still not that popular compared to Lemmy in the past nor Piefed right now (might be an exaggeration).
With the Kbin lead dev, Ernest, not being active enough (due to medical reasons), the community forked Kbin, which is what we know today as Mbin.

Thanks. I knew that kbin had been forked to mbin, but didn't know whether mbin development had continued after that.
