The differences is that you have the power to make a new community or Lemmy site with blackjack and hookers. (Piefed is kind of like that for people unhappy with the Lemmy software or developers.)
Kind of. I don't think the Internet will ever return to the heyday of Reddit.
Once governments and groups recognized that social media actually does move public opinion, that was the end of good, anonymous social media.
The ways to bring some of that back aren't great. A community where everyone's verified is much better, but it'll be quite different from the Reddit days where you'd have (usually real) ridiculous subject matter experts chiming in on random threads.
You don't get that with a small, verified population. And when you don't have verification, well forever now have effectively psyops intending to influence you.
Well we can assume political discussions have a lot of psyops and people with agendas. I appreciate that many of the loudest voices/posters make it very obvious ;)
Some of the craziest niches aren't on here (like if you clean sewers and septic tanks, DM me, you ought to do an AMA) but I have encountered people replying on mostly tech related topics on programming, linux, asklemmy, no stupid Qs where someone with niche tech knowledge did answer (i couldn't find the original comment link, sorry). My knowledge is in trains, electricity, Japanese and Japanese electric trains, you can ask me about.
How is piefed going? It looks like a really great alternative.
Absolutely fine. I can interact much better with the fediverse on here except search. I find Lemmy does search functions better currently.
That's not losing too much. You probably don't even have to sign in to use lemmy's search.
