Ugh…

I find generic phrases such as “tolerance is at the base of civil life” to be unconvincing, especially when parroted in such an aggressively self-aggrandizing manner. You might as well say something along the line of “An apple a day keeps the doctor way”.

You either don’t have much life experience (and lack intellectual curiosity) or you’re just grandstanding online.

It’s great, a lot better than Lemmy.

The main weakness IMO is that Voyager doesn’t support most of the cool features of Piefed (core interaction works great though). I have yet to try Interstellar. The mobile WebUI is pretty good, albeit in need of some polish and optimisations.

This is some of the most pretentious, ostentatious posturing I’ve read on this topic.

You really think people can’t see through this?

You don’t see the irony in doing the “sophomoric debate club” thing while calling those that disagree with you “Kids”.

“Dangerous trends”, “base of intolerance” or the pompous drivel about “grow my ideas and enforce and dispute them” are almost comical in their tone.

The world doesn’t work that way. This is a motherfucking internet forum.

Or is this a satire of American style polemics and I got played? 🤣

If it’s satire, then good job!

There is Piefed, it’s compatible with Lemmy instances and has a whole load of useful feature for both users and moderators.

Much quicker and responsive development (I’ve been able to get two small feature/improvement requests implemented within weeks of my initial issue post).

One of the Lemmy developers is also an admin on the notorious Lemmygrad instance.

Check out the linked thread asking for Reddit alternatives.

I am talking about the population of people interested in alternative platforms, so maybe like 1-2% of the Reddit’s MAUs at most. I was pretty clear about this:

…among users who are looking for alternatives to American oligarchic technology services

…

…is a massive turn off for the exact target market of the Fediverse

The market for Fedi is clearly not the total unique MAU count of American social services.

I feel like I should make a joke about not reading an article and just commenting about the headline. :)

I’ve seen that being used. It works fine for more technical users, but it’s just an extra pain point.

• If you make links, you need to apply the service
• Different UI from whatever instance/client/platform that you are using.

I much prefer Piefed’s soon to be released link substitution feature.

How do you discover good peertube channels?

I only have two subscriptions, a gaming channel that uploads to both peertube and YT and the Piefed channel.

I believe I2P is more for things like torrents.

I’ve been meaning to test it out (I seem to remember that it’s possible to run it side by side), but haven’t got a chance yet.

Tbh, and I plan to do this for piefed.social soon (and rimu has given me the go-ahead) - abandoned discarded communities with literally zero posts need to be purged by instances. It’s just clutter.

Cool, it’s a good idea. But there are also other instances.

Then there is the issue of communities with a large number of subs but where the last post was 7 months ago and they have 0 MAUs. While a community with a lot less subs can have several posts per week and at least some MAUs (couple of hundred).

Mlem is an iOS client.

I was wondering what Mlem is. Thanks!

I would just try a piefed.social account.

The support docs don’t really look comprehensive.

You have comments from different communities under the same URL post. “Multicommunities” but without user intervention.

It does have some drawbacks. For example, under this post, I can see comments from an earlier post (referring to the same URL) from over a year ago.

Piefed is also a platform, in addition to Piefed servers being instances and clients.

This is solved by Piefed.
