Kaity has just spun up a PieFed instance, which is open to anyone that wants to try it out.

PieFed is part of the "Threadiverse" along with lemmy and mbin. If you are already reading this in lemmy, then you already know what PieFed is about.

If you're curious to try it out, or if you're just looking for a way to avoid lemmy, you can find it at https://piefed.blahaj.zone/

Like our lemmy instance, we have set PieFed applications to require manual approval, but if you're already a member of our lemmy instance, you can get auto approved by our modbot by quoting your registration code somewhere in your application.

I’m not sure if this is a Piefed software issue or a Piefed Blahaj federation issue; has anyone had trouble getting communities from slrpnk.net to show up on the page to add a remote community? I’ve been trying to add !birding@slrpnk.net, which as far as I can tell is still up and functioning, but PF Blahaj just gives an error that says “Community not found.”

EDIT: facepalm, I was checking to see if it was up on my Blahaj lemmy account. slrpnk.net itself is down. Dunno how I missed that happening, but in my defense there’s been a little bit going on in LA right now 😅

I think I'm not really a fan of any of the existing mobile app options for PieFed. I'll definitely keep an eye on that and see if any ones that I like more become available.

hmm i already have a piefed account, do i make one for blahaj too..

You don't have to, your existing account will work perfectly fine.

But on the other hand, we're not rationing them out based on how many you already have either!

Go to https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/link for a code you can use to get instant registration approval.

I'd love to know the performance different between the two. It feels like Lemmy should be more lean.

silly question and it's probably not possible but i wonder if there's a way to sync the sticky posts from this community on piefed too (or make this community more prominent on piefed) since ive been using the piefed instance more and more now that i got used to it. :^

We don't have any stickied posts on lemmy at the moment, so there is nothing to sync, but as I understand it, they will sync fine

That being said, another thing you can do is turn on notifications for the community itself. That way, you'll get a notification whenever someone makes a new post (not comment) to the community. You can do the same thing with individual posts too, and get notifications whenever someone replies to a post, even if you didn't make the original post!

ooh thanks i feel dumb :L i thought i saw one on lemmy but maybe it was just old >_>

Post pinning should be fixed now between Lemmy and Piefed, so if the mods unpin/repin it it should work

[–] cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

but like in the main screen when you first go to the page where it lists all of your subscribed posts. sometimes on lemmy they would stick to the top from the meta subreddit. :^

I just checked, at the moment there's only an announcement function:

Ah, you mean instance-wide pinning! Good point, let me check with the Piefed devs
