Comment on How can we make lemmy have more relevance?

  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.

  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.
