Care to explain what piefed is and how it differs from lemmy? I thought it was just one of the instances in lemmyverse
PieFed is an alternative platform in the same social media category of Lemmy, "Forum and link aggregator".
It's younger, but is being rapidly developed, esp considering it's written in mostly python instead of Rust.
Biggest benefit though, is it doesn't come with toxic political ideologies attached like Lemmy does (https://lemmy.world/post/29072279)
Also why we're moving to more generic terms like "Threadiverse" instead of "Lemmy-verse"
So far, the Lemmy devs being Marxist doesnt seem to affect the quality of the software. And since it's the fediverse you can just go to a server that doesn't clash with your own world view.
You don't want ideology to be mixed with a social networking service. It can get problematic. Maybe it hasn't yet for you. But it might. So might as well switch now to something neutral.
This is gonna blow your mind: Liberalism is also an ideology and a reactionary one at that.
Just because it's the "default" doesn't mean it's not influencing anything.
