Lemmy all the way. PieFed is cool in some of its features, but the way Rimu makes heavy-handed decisions without properly getting community input is insulting and reeks of everything I left centralized Web for.

I keep PyLova in sight, but for now, Lemmy serves me well.

    The choices are confusing. I'll remain where I am until I stumble over a reason to switch.

    I've engaged in this debate in the past. Even started some threads and caused accidental fires. I'm not doing that anymore. It's unhealthy for the threadiverse. Just pick and use what you like. If you don't like it anymore, switch to something else. If it speaks ActivityPub, it's all good. We need more fediversing, more decentralization and less drama.

    Mbin. Neither Lemmy nor Piefed appeal to me.

    I prefer the funny people living in the Voyager app.

    PieFed because it has more features and integrates better with Mastodon users.

    Lemmy. I dislike the tech stacks of piefed and mbin.

    I prefer anyone that doesn’t support the tankie triad.

    I left lemmy to move to piefed after disagreeing with lemmy’s developers moderation practices and finding out a portion of the donations go to keep .ml running.

    I switched from Lemmy to PieFed a few months ago bc I really like the combined comment streams and hiding posts based on keywords (and the HPT-Fruits theme), but I'm eagerly waiting for PyLova to gain more traction, as it seems to address quite a few pain points of PieFed.

    Why not just jump onto a pylova instance then?

    Lemmy. My instance has alternative UIs linked in the sidebar that allow my feed to look reasonable instead of like a modern social media ui designed for dark patterns

    I use a mobile app, so it really doesnt matter to me. Lemmy frontend is a bit shit though

    Is still don't have an idea what the difference is. I feel like it sounds too samesies to switch.

    A lot of the big differences are in the community moderation and instance admin side of things. If you use a client app that does both Lemmy and PieFed then using your new PieFed account would feel exactly the same. So for the average phone app user there's not much reason to switch.

    The admin and mod tools being so much better does mean that PieFed communities and instances have the potential to be run much better, in theory.

  • Pylova personally, but my client isn't quite there with Piefed support yet, and I can't be bothered changing clients right now.

    I haven't used Piefed so I can't say. However, what I can say is that place seems to attract more than their fair share of obnoxious users.
