This is where I feel piefed is better for onboarding new threadiverse users, from reddit or elsewhere.
On sign up, they ask you for some topics you’d like to see, ask about how you want to see US politics being in your feed, and lastly they have set topics feed already that you can choose to view.
Personally I think piefed is the next good iteration of the threadiverse. It’s an in between of having to curate your feeds on your own (Lemmy and mbin) and algorithmic feed (reddit and other thread based social media).
Desktop use is already good, although personally I’d like Tesseract front end support. Mobile still needs to be picked up by more apps personally. Interstellar is good, but I like the “read on scroll” and “hide read posts” from Thunder. Despite that though, it’s also good already on mobile browsers
It’s funny how I replied to this post and glazing piefed with my Lemmy.zip account instead of my piefed account.
Also another great feature of piefed that I forgot to mention: piefed consolidates similarly titled posts / crossposts and present comments from the different communities into one page.
I haven’t figured it out yet if I reply to the post, which community will it go to. I assume if I reply to one of the comments it will go to the community where the comment is.
I could not agree more like the early web before it became popular enough for corporations to take notice and start exploiting it. Cherish being under the radar and enjoy the community that’s already here. More will come when they are ready just be ready to welcome them when they do.
This really feels like Reddit in the first couple years. It went to shit so gradually I didn’t even notice although I can remember big events. I remember when “downvote ≠ disagree” and the place felt nicer.
Yeah nowadays Reddit has not just every sub, but every meme version of a sub, and that’s neat, but at what cost? I don’t like being on it, and I’ve been um, banned an awful lot of times lately. Not really worth it. So I will have to try to build the top few communities I am missing here, like centuryhomes.
In my opinion people focus too much on what lemmy could be and are failing to appreciate what it is.
Engaging with the platform as it is will better attract others than going elsewhere and promising things that lemmy might not ever be.
A firehose of US politics and bad news?
Lemmy is a platform without an algorithm, the content curation is in your hands.
My feed is shitposts and cute animals, if you don’t like what you see then unsubscribe from those communities.
I’m talking about my highly curated feed. Otherwise it would be an avalanche of US politics and bad news.

Aye - rather than how, why? I do not mind a smaller community.
I’m a big fan of what it is, but I’d love if there was something unique people could come here for, I’m describing it terribly though.
It’s already unique. I can’t get what I get here anywhere else.
Lemmy is like a cafe, not like a stadium.
