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.

    You’re assuming I care enough to. I got plenty of ratio’d comments. I’m not tore up about it. But I do think you’re guilty of it.

        ? Lol. There is absolutely nothing that I said that can evenly remotely be construed as an apology. But making shit up seems solidly in your wheelhouse.

        Edit: this comment is so deeply buried that I’m going to double down on my vote manipulation content. You really need therapy.
