Every time I go to the piefed frontpage I’m blown away by how much more polished it is. It has all the bells and whistles that lemmy is sometimes missing.
Whats the catch? Why aren’t we recommending everyone goes to piefed instead of lemmy?
App support is one thing I can think of.
Apps make or break those platforms. Lemmy apps are way better than what Mastodon has for example (but I have to tip my hat to Phanpy). We got really lucky that Lemmy exploded in popularity due to Reddit API changes which meant many app developers gave Lemmy a shot. I probably wouldn’t use Lemmy so much if Voyager didn’t fill the hole Apollo left in my heart.
Voyager is so polished, it elevates the whole experience.
Phanpy is phenomenal and fixes a lot of the problems Mastodon and all microblogging platforms have.
Mona is also a good app.
If it can get apps, ill probably be more on it.
I love you lemmy.world but I would rather like to run my own piefed.
