Wait piefed has a secret shadowban list too?
Did they learn nothing from Tessaract?

I don't see how people can still use piefed with someone like this in charge. A new red flag pops up every month. It's hard to see them among all the other red flags.
good news, nobody who like Piefed has to use it. we've gotten PyLova to the point it's running Quokk.au and Anarchist.Nexus, and we've not only removed the censorship and the bias, but we've also improved the UI, made some new themes, and most important of all patched some security vulnerabilities.
at this point it's better than Piefed in every way.
Just curious, but why not use Lemmy instead?
Some people still believe @dessalines@lemmy.ml and @nutomic@lemmy.ml are out to get them I guess. It's ironic because every talking point about developer overreach and unilateral decisions applies to piefed more than it does Lemmy. I know it has more features and it feels like Lemmy 1.0 is taking forever, I'm still holding out hope for it and making do with what we have here.
Totally agree with you. Which sucks because I really wanted to like the project. But the more stuff that comes out about it and the creator just makes me shake my head.
Rimu is not just instance-beefing, he's so salty he's going against the whole FOSS ethos just to be as petty as possible. PTB.
Man, I saw a single post from Rimu some months ago and pegged them as a scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds, censorious control freak totalitarian, months ago, blocked em.
Is this person like... actually important in some way, or do they just... loudly think that about themself?
They're a piefed dev/contributor or something?
Rimu initially made PieFed because he wanted more moderation tools that the lemmy devs didn't want. It was always about censorship for him.
All the original PieFed fanboy power users and slowly realizing that they picked a fascist over the communists.
Rimu rehashing old drama?
What is the manchild trying to distract from now, did he invade Iran and fuck up or something?
Yeah, this is PTB.
You can't just shut down an otherwise on topic comment because you don't like it. I mean, you can, but if it's in this situation you're using your position to block dissent. That's literally what power tripping is.
I saw the thread without context trying to defend their actions and I just laughed.
"Boy golly, I'm just so new to this FOSS thing!"
Like, I still don't really know the details, but this pattern has gotten old.
