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.

    No, you can’t. You can go to jail for suggesting Germany’s support of Israel is support of genocide.

    But specifically both in China and Cuba you’re free to criticize the government. Hell there’s a ~100k strong protest in China every couple of months regarding the government’s apathy towards Israel; and the recent while the most recent cuban ‘protests’ were more in line with ‘encouraging’ the government to just spend more money to encourage countries to break the US military blockade, they were still ‘criticism’ that the government wasn’t doing enough.
