I've been on Lemmy for ~3 Months and it's nice but picking a instance, figuring out which web UI works for me, figuring out which Mobile App works for met etc. was a lot, and most people would have given up.
I've been using PieFed for the last few days, and wow I like it so much more, it solved so many of the UX issues that Lemmy has.
These features make a BIG impact, most of the common things people on Reddit complain about when you promote Lemmy isn't a issue on PieFed.
My favourite feature is de-duplication, on PieFed if I view eg. this post https://piefed.social/post/749818#comment_6102866
It combines/aggregates it with cross-posts/reposts
So I can see it in one place, and see all the comments in one place.
Have you tried out PieFed? What are your thoughts?
PieFed looks fantastic, but I wish there was a seamless way to migrate to it from Lemmy - I spent a LOT of time customizing my feed, blocking some communities, subscribing to others, that sort of thing, and I honestly don't feel like doing it all from scratch...
Actually, Is there a way to automate it in some way? Probably not, since PF is structured differently, right?
You can export your settings from Lemmy and import them into PieFed.
Really? That's awesome! At work now, but let me try to do that later, thanks so much for the info!
