Ah, might be a frontend thing then. The default web frontend for blahaj can’t do that at least.

Ah yes! That’s correct. I’m an admin over there and can therefore moderate here as well
Nope! I just think it’s neat. I tried out piefed only because there’s a blåhaj instance. I’m WillStealYourUsername, a longtime mod of this comm
I found it on android. I am using the web frontend on desktop personally
Yeah! It’s part of the fediverse! Check what instance I am talking to you from :3
- Communities can have a topic, this means you can browse by topic! Nice but not mindblowing
- Communities can define post flairs! Basically very visible tags on posts that you can sort by. I’ve wanted this for a long time and some communities do this on lemmy by adding [flair/tag] to the title. Easy to forget to do. With it being a feature instead it’s just much nicer and handier
- Wikis! Some communities really benefit from having a wiki alongside it, like my DIY HRT community! I’m super pumped for this one
- There’s a NSFL flag for posts in addition to NSFW
- Lots of neat options for communities and the user. You can set communities to be mosaic instead of a list! Haven’t tried it yet but it’s cool that it’s an option
- Built in custom css stuff
- The dev seems very active and communicative
- The dev isn’t a transphobic tankie as far as I’m aware
- Everything seems to be better made than here. Did you know on lemmy you need to comment/post in a community to be made a mod? You also can’t be unmodded unless you have a comment or post. On piefed there’s a menu for this instead. Lots of just better little things like that
- More probably
The downside is Lemmy is more popular. I don’t think there is a mobile app also (edit: there are mobile apps like Interstellar, but I dunno if they support all the non-lemmy features yet), just the web frontend. There might be more, but I just started using it. Also, since the instance is new it’s still syncing posts and such from other instances and from lemmy
Edit:
Oh! And you can have “feeds” which are like multireddits. Instead of just your frontpage which acts as a singular feed you can have multiple custom feeds! Say a meme and a hobby feed f.ex, instead of everything being mixedEdit:
One more negative is lemmy can’t see the piefed only features like wikis. It’s also newer and there seems to be mainly one contributor to the code, so I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some bugs lurking around.
I would think so! I haven’t tried that yet, but piefed is also part of the fediverse so I think it works both ways
Blåhaj just made a piefed instance and I just think it’s better
It’s compatible with lemmy, so I can just use my piefed account for basically everything!

Is that real. I need to try this
Haha! :P
There’s a migrate community button actually, so you can clone over everything if you want
