According to Rimu Atkinson, the main developer of PieFed, all PieFed instances come with a 3000-long block list of resources that cannot be linked to. These include all sorts of right-wing outlets. There is no easy opt-out, forcing existing instances to follow the blocklist.

The flagship PieFed instance also rolled out a feature marking various other sorts of outlets - among them, resources considered AI slop and Marxist outlets. These are specific to piefed.social.

Why YSK: Many users have hard time choosing between Lemmy, PieFed, and Kbin/Mbin. Users that prefer a more curated and politically uniform experience might prefer PieFed over the alternatives. Users that are right-wing, Marxist, or generally concerned about global censorship of the Fedi-/Threadiverse, might opt for other options instead.

Note: The post is only meant to inform users of the potentially important differences between Threadiverse platforms. Any ideologically charged discussions are better left in the respective topic.

      It’s what happens when you step out of the west and into any country that are the victims of the west, which is around 176 countries.

      Why wouldn’t a site that isn’t slanted towards coddling western children like liberals and neoliberals be more reflective of the actual majority opinion in the world?

        You come across very rude, in case no one has told you yet. You should be more aware of that.

        Edit: vote manipulation isn’t a good look either.

          Bold claim from someone denying US participation in genocide. Misinformation is kinda your forte isn’t it?

              Feel free to report it. Vote manipulation is against lemmy.world’s rules and the moderators can see the ip’s.

              It would be a quick instance ban.

              Do it, you genocidal cunt.
