there is one issue that I've found - my work blocks lemmy.zip, so I'm using the piefed account I made to test it.

My guess is that it ends in ".zip" and is getting blocked, b/c the rest of lemmy they aren't bothering with.

I actually described how dutch sounded to me to some dutch friends. I said something like, "Dutch sounds like if a German got drunk, tried learning English, and then started choking."

They told me that wasn't far off ๐Ÿ˜‚

that is very good to know, especially the tuning. Thank you!

thank you, that's a good reference :)

thank you! that's actually quite useful

 

I've been considering launching a Lemmy server for a community lately, but am now back exploring piefed with the Lemm.ee shutdown.

I've read that Lemmy for some has been quite resource intensive and piefed was much easier on CPU and RAM. Is anyone able to share some metrics, say, for this server for reference?

It looks like documentation is better for piefed and the mod tools are better. I like the topics organization.

Downside is that the interstellar app didn't seem to have that feature built in.

Also, my phone really does not like the word piefed lol.

But I'm starting to consider whether to trim a piefed instance instead of Lemmy. Is there anything I should know ahead of time? Such as unexpected gotchas or federation issues with Lemmy?
