Fediverse

I actually don't like that feature cause it's not something the user chooses, it's up to the dev or admin (not sure which).

Multi-communities? Really? 😍

Can I aggregate all threads that link to the same URL so I can view all comments on that URL in one page?

Ideally across all instances of mastodon and Lemmy and others?

Does it require JavaScript? Does it load in Tor Browser on strict mode?

The lightweight claim is a bit of a stretch. You're counting content that gets cached in the browser.

Speed is literally not even a concern, the only thing I want more of is people. Make it easier to sign up or something

In my experience it's very snappy, and with minimal JavaScript (if at all). Hell, it's even somewhat usable in Lynx, though I couldn't sign in.

And uses less data - helpful for using a mobile data plan. Those numbers shown in the article are all the more impressive even for sending 5x more posts on the home screen than Lemmy's default, even while still sending >4/5 less data - i.e. it's more like sending roughly only 1/25th the data per post, if I'm reading that right.

I'd heard of it already, since apparently I had added it to my block list, but for the love of me I cannot remember why. Looks like a pretty nice and standard Lemmy visualizer.

Tbf you're on Lemmy 24/7 so you'll hear about things much earlier than many others. I've also been on Piefed for a minute.

But I've come to understand how slowly knowledge propagates through large numbers of people, at least via this medium. First with the APIcaplyse, when I realized that virtually nobody on reddit had even heard of the API changes, let alone moving to Lemmy. And then on Lemmy itself with various major events/dramas that people were totally unaware of until much later.

Piefed is developing rapidly and seems like a worthy alternative to Lemmy and Mbin. The private voting feature is also really cool.

You can't, no. PieFed and Lemmy are operating in similar spaces, but are completely different architecturally. PieFed doesn't yet have an API. Unlike Lemmy (and a lot of other modern web platforms), it doesn't need one to operate, so copying Lemmy's to the extent that you'd be able to plug in something like Voyager would be overkill. It would probably also be against the TOS for Voyager (Jerboa actively prevents it's use with anything other than Lemmy, even if the API is the same).

Yes. I added that myself a couple months ago 😎

edit: you have to export your lemmy user settings. that comes down as a .json file. Then you make a piefed user, and there is an import settings in the piefed user profile.

it will also attempt to import any blocks/bans of users/communities you had in the lemmy settings. But if the instance of piefed you are on does not 'l\know' about those users/communities it wont add them to bans list. But of course that means the community in question is not federated to the instance you are on, so half-dozen-of-one-six-of-the-other really.
