  • Its been pretty good. Lemmy has more momentum…but that doesn’t really mean much when you can just subscribe to different instances all over the place.

    It has quite a few UI templates. So you can further customize your experience. Its initial setup is MUCH nicer than lemmy. It has starter pack kinda deals. Theres a lot of other cool features like reposts show all comments from both postings. I also self hosted my own for a tiny bit, but I like the default piefed.social website the most. It is much more stable haha.

    Plus Piefed can hook into other ActivityHub providers like peertube, mastodon, etc…without any real issues. Its a bit better than lemmy in that it utilizes the nature of the fediverse a bit more. Dont get me wrong, there both very solid projects. But as a layman, Im really enjoying piefed.

    I’ve done more than 18 years of dev work. I only hate js. All the other parts of the job are fine. Other languages are fine as well. I’ve had to learn so many. Hell I know cobol right along side ruby.

    Js sucks. It sucks to debug. Its frameworks still have issues with basic stuff like many to many relationships.

    All the solutions that don’t use or use it sparingly work for years. The ones that rely on the language usually die a firey death by npm/yarn or get deprecated within 6 months.
