    Can I just say, as someone new to any of this you all sound like a bunch of absolute loons. It’s like you’re arguing over your favorite tarts flavors.

    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.

    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.

      I mean, the Lemmy devs are easily just as bad. Just try to have a political discussion on .ml while not being a scum sucking tankie. I would be negative levels of shocked if it turned out they added something like a global shadowban list or other similarly shit moves other fedi devs have made.

        For all we know, Lemmy does not have that, though.

        It’s one thing to spread your views through the developer’s instance and ideologically police it (not great, but eh, users can just block .ml), it’s another thing to bake your bias into code and make it affect every single instance. Besides, PieFed makes other, non-political controversial changes, too.

    Piefed (though I also generally like Mbin). However, I haven’t used lemmy since the old version with autorefresh and such so I’m not sure. I also just use it in the browser with no separate client/frontend.

    i much prefer lemmy and i’m banned from piefed.social because the developer is extremely thin skinned so i’m not really interested their echo chamber

    He [Rimu] has decided to mass ban 20 users because they have spoken out against his erratic and hostile behaviour as of late.

    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.

    Piefed because the software has a ton of awesome features and the dev is very responsive.

    Lemmy has completely stagnated. They raised enough money for 2 full time devs and pretty much nothing has changed in the past 2 years.

    I like piefed because it was actively improving with neat things. when I first came I was on kbin for a similar reason.
