The point of ActivityPub is that this exact conversation doesn't matter.

I don't see the point is this dick measuring between piefed and Lemmy, and it is becoming a bit annoying. Don't we have enough problems as is?

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 29 points 2 days ago

Let's just agree to hate on reddit like everyone else does lol.

I agree with you.

And it's mostly just Piefed people spewing this stuff; often about how their "sports team" is "superior".
Quite sad really

[–] JustJack23@slrpnk.net 7 points 2 days ago

That could be explained by Lemmy being the incumbent for this fediverse position. I used to see the same about kbin.

But again imo it doesn't matter "who started it" and who is supporting who. The more software work with activityPub the better.

Switched from Lemmy to PieFed last year and literally see zero difference between both and have never read this rhetoric anywhere.

Please give us links to name and shame otherwise You are making shit up.

It's literally from the OP in this thread, please read things.

Yeah they just talking smack with no evidence.

There's not enough Piefed users to begin with. Most people are just happy the services exist.

I'm just happy to have an option available that wasn't coded by proud authoritarian bootlickers. Hopefully as more PieFed instances spin up and as more people move to them we can start defederating .ml.

Not who you replied to, but I know that I've seen a handful of such posts over the past week. But no, I'm not going to try to find them. Maybe if I see one in the next day or two, I'll remember this post and add it.

[–] Skavau@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Individuals might push for that or want that to happen, but it only matters what actual developers or instance owners say.

Hey, I have no skin in the game. I'm just a user, not a developer, so whatever people come up with that I use, I'm not going to complain. I find the language zealots kind of funny.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago

Comparing network utilization of Lemmy, Kbin and PieFed says that PieFed uses 5x less data (on e.g. a mobile connection) despite showing 5x more posts, i.e. overall a landing page is 25-fold more efficient per post than Lemmy.

I doubt this has anything whatsoever to do with Rust and more about choices as to what data is sent when.

As it should be.

Yeah sure I'm gonna sift through weeks if not months of random post and comment history for some NFT ape clown; LMAO

Edit: also L + ratio

Edit: literally look at this post and OOP's comments in it's thread

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Seems you're the angry person having to comment on this.

A bit of Christmas banter, some healthy competition, what is not to like IMO?

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I'm just trolling back lol >:3

At a certain point implementation does matter

[–] Sunspear@piefed.social 11 points 2 days ago

No it doesn't - fragmenting ourselves in a fight to be 'perfect' is horribly counterproductive when the alternative is simply being ... good, dare I say acceptable, but doing it together.

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah, but not between Lemmy and PieFed. I don't get why people try to interact with Lemmy/PieFed using Mastodon for example, it's just painful.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip -5 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Its because piefed is looking to de-federate from Lemmy as a whole.

[–] c0dezer0@programming.dev 3 points 1 day ago

Source on this claim?

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 11 points 2 days ago

that can only be true for one instance, not for an activitypub software as a whole

[–] Skavau@piefed.social 10 points 2 days ago

That's literally impossible.

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I'm not sure what you mean? Piefed had no plans like that.
