PieFed Meta

I was looking at Voyager on my phone and saw communities I hadn't subscribed to in my home feed, and upvotes on posts I hadn't voted on (or even seen before). When I tried to remove the upvotes, a message said "problem voting, please try again".

The other day, it was at 96%. This morning, it was at 88%. Now, a few hours later, it's at 80%. What's going on?

If you haven't tried @blorp yet, now is a good time! It just added support for @piefed_meta so now it supports both Lemmy and Piefed!

There have been some exciting new things but I sorta don't want to peanut gallery while things are in motion. Whats a good place to hear about changes and give feedback on the particular thing?

Tô bem impressionado com o @piefed_meta, achei mais interessante que o Lemmy.

Sometimes I write a comment on a post that is relatively new. Often, in such cases, I am interested in what others comment. Having a checkbox to get notified of other comments (effectively clicking the bell button via the action of commenting) would be handy

I've been considering making the move to Piefed for a while, but I suppose there are a few things that I haven't been able to find that I was wondering about.

I’m not totally sure if this is a Piefed issue or a Blahaj server issue, so sorry if it’s the wrong spot for this.

Tl;dr: I think we have too much "empty" content and noise here and it drags down the place for 2 years now. Does PieFed include an approach to change the situation?

Since https://piefed.social/f/rpggames seems to be mostly about computer games, I created a bunch of feeds for TTRPG

Title. Can't figure out how to crosspost anything in Piefed.

Votes are no longer using an alt profile so instead you now have the choice of federating your votes or not. Please go to https://piefed.social/user/settings and see the 'Federate votes' checkbox. It should be showing the opposite of what you had for the 'Vote privately' checkbox that was there before, however the behavior and tradeoffs are really quite different so you might want to revisit that decision.

A way for people to screen out AI generated content, similar how people can screen out nsfw content already.

I'm excited to announce that Voyager now has experimental support for logging in with Piefed! You can try it out today on:

Hello folks: I'm wondering if there's anything in the UI or API to view the status of federation/list of federated instances. Largely, this is for personal curiosity but, it could be useful for users deciding what instance to join and for quickly detecting odd federation behavior/API compatibility breakages.

I've seen a lot of people say the piefed API is similar to the lemmy api.

I post things every so often but honetly I understand people are busy and developing is not a cake walk. I am continually amazed as things just show up. Seperating the comments and posts for users is just massive for evaluating a troll user because the posts tend to be more karma fishing while the comments tend to show what its really doing. Im so impressed at how piefed is working to improve so much and kudos to everyone working on it. This is actually why I originally was on kbin as earnest definately was looking to improve, improve, improve. I still worry about what happened to him. Need closure on his situation and I hope its good or at least better.

EDIT: Initial self-votes don't federate, so it seems this specific way doesn't work.

For example, things that are posted in one instance being delayed in the other, things that are removed not being removed, name changes not showing up, being directed to the wrong places when searching things, info not showing up letting people know they are banned, etc.

What features made you choose PieFed over Mbin/Lemmy? What features do they have that you’d like to see in PieFed?

I've created [email protected]. Normally I would go to the big community promo communities on Lemmy and promote it there. But, since this is a polls community and Lemmy doesn't support polls yet, the community is completely empty when viewed from Lemmy.

Lemmy have Moderator feed which only show post from community in which you mod.

OpenAPI docs are at https://freamon.github.io/piefed-api

I'm new here and think it's developing very nicely. Congrats and thank you!

I just created an account here just a couple of days back, so I don't know if this is normal or a bug, so I thought of asking here first.

Due to the unfortunate down-time of slrpnk.net we are currently researching possible blockers for creating a Lemmy to Piefed migration guide or script for a relaunch in 1-2 months.

Currently the profile and banner images that are gifs don't animate/loop in piefed this is different compared to lemmy and mbin. This is also true for other formats like animated jxl, webp and avif, etc. It would also be great if there was an option to enable/disable this behaviour in the settings or in low bandwidth mode.

I'm yet another lemm.ee refugee looking for a new home. I signed up to piefed.social, and in the process was required to select at least three interests. That seems to have been used to sign me up to 58 separate communities, none of which I actually wanted to be signed up to! I can see how it can be a good way to fill new users' feeds and give them a starting point, but I'd really like to see an option to say "Don't add me to anything, I'll handle it from here". Unsubscribing from all of those was painful.

Hey, I'd like to know if an option for right alignment could be added for the main menu on mobile?

UPDATE: the final (for now) version has been published at https://piefed.social/rules

Hello! TL;DR for the unnecessary long background info I just typed up then deleted:

It would be great if we had a way to mark images/videos/links on a post as a spoiler.

I'm loving the Feeds feature, but just some things I've noticed.

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

This post summarizes the development work completed in May 2025, grouped by contributor.

Ok so this is likely one of my wierder experiences with the fediverse and is a bit of a story that ends with something wierd with https://piefed.social/topic/chilling/comics?sort=new&layout=list - So to sorta start this off I rarely post but had taken to posting a comic I like called devils panties to [email protected]. One day when I clicked on replies to the comic I was getting 404 pages and I could not find the comic anymore. There was no notification or anything that it was removed but I checked the sidebar rules and it did not seem to break any. So I posted again and the same thing came back. I suspected that things can be removed without notice or such or just maybe something was breaking so posted to [email protected] and that went fine. I changed to posting to [email protected] but then noticed that the comic was being posted by someone else to [email protected]. It did not show up greyed so it presumably was not a bot. I figured I would bow out as I was going to stop posting once I got a job as when working I tend to not be able to really get to anything even small like this (im not a good waker upper and I tend to be toast after work). The next day though no post was done by the other user so late before I went to bead I did the lemmy.ml post and one hour later it appeared in lemmy.world. Its been pretty consistantly one hour after. Anyway the whole thing made me feel pretty wierd but then today its sorta on another level. When perusing https://piefed.social/topic/chilling/comics?sort=new&layout=list I see the duplicates the user does to lemmy.world but I don't see my original posts to lemmy.ml but I do see another comic posted to lemmy.ml and if I go directly to [email protected] I see my post. Anyone have any idea whats going on???

I want to add my Lemmy alt account to some piefed community which I migrated how I do it? Thanks

I was thinking about donating a few dollars, but I noticed all the donation links are monthly subscriptions. Is there any way to donate to piefed in a one time payment?

It's already been 1 day.

Examples: - https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/45888987/19194128 - https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/45867045/19183694

just wanted to say that this is excellent. interstellar works so well on the phone. and pieces.social is so great. thank you all so much for your hard work. this is beautiful.

It would be nice to be able to set the default comment sort (Hot, Top, New) in settings. A dropdown similar to the post sort setting would be ideal.

So awhile back viewing a post options and stuff was just one click like what I currently am looking at as I create a post for type of post. It was changed to dropdowns awhile back and I really gave it a shot but ultimately just wish so much it was back to the way it was. For me less clicks is a better interface and this change transformed a one click thing into a three click thing. Before it was click on sort by new. Now its click on dropdown. click on new. click on apply. Im not sure the reasoning behind it. Maybe to make it look cleaner but it does not actually save any space really as the horizontal is just not used now. I mean I may be wrong on that but personally its all about click reduction for me with most interfaces.

This is fantastic work from the @piefed_meta team: peertube.wtf/w/8b6wa113MuekvbFBlocking images via PDQ hash

Given that Lemmy is currently asking for donations, and given the disdain I and many other have for the Lemmy developers' actions, I was wondering if its possible/helpful to donate to PieFed's development instead?

I'm using Piefed.social, obviously, and I'm getting a LOT of notifications. When I click on the bell I have a massive amount of notifications. Is there a way to mass delete notifications or do I have to do it one by one? Any plans for a mass delete of notifications?

I've encountered a bug, I think, where in piefed it didn't show the whole content of the post.

Another big month.

So in the comics topic I don't seem to be able to choose a view type like hot or new or such but when I went to a specific community I see its there but it changed a bit with drop downs sorta off to the left. Was there a change? Is this intended long term or did it just not take for topics?

The link text is: "Please click this like to verify your email address."

How do I turn off new post notifications? I checked Settings but can't find anything

One of the things I miss a little from Lemmy is the different Top Hour/Day/Week etc. sort options. The most used one for me was Top Day, it was a nice way to get a suitable amount of doomscrolling each day with mostly new posts.

An absolutely huge month with the addition of Feeds (multi-communities), de-duplicating posts in the timeline, comments on cross-posts merged into one tree, and much more:

"Field must be between 3 and 5000 characters long."
