Hello m@teys,
I've been waiting for this a long time (half a year), personally. After seeing the surge in piefed instances, i.e. blahaj, .ca, .zip, quokk.au, and .world creating their own instances, and clients guaranteeing future piefed support, we've been thinking about potentially opening an instance in the future. Not a guarantee, just an idea. This isn't a voting thread, just a discussion. Later on we'll actually vote on this.
Do note that this thread will not guarantee an instance; we are discussing a hypothetical. Suggestions? Ideas? Criticisms? make your voice heard.
Have a good week!
pie picture comes from here
governance type: sense check
What's the use case for this? Or is this just another similar thing but on a different back end?
Piefed has a lot more tools than Lemmy: feeds, following communities/posts and profiles and getting notifications for them. Flairs, hashtags and many smaller little things and it is getting a lot of updates compared to Lemmy.
Sounds like more fragmentation of an already fragmented ecosystem.
I guess we'll see what comes of it until the next new shiny comes around lol.
it's not fragmentation. piefed federates with lemmy. some of the comms you use are probably on piefed.
I mean Piefed communicates with Lemmy anyway.
