Piefed is cool! Lemmy is too! What's not cool? Infighting, it drives away new users. Unfortunately this seems a common sentiment...

Some fair points here but don't allow the person you are responding to here warp the conversation with highly charged wording choices, possibly influenced by the very drama posts that OP was referring to (except in reverse).
I do not see the word "negligent" anywhere at https://piefed.social/auth/instance_chooser. I see only "Newbie-friendly" and "Choose your own adventure". Is there something wrong or negative (hehe, "negligent") about "Choose your own adventure"? Conversely, "Newbie-friendly" speaks to a playground like experience where even a former Redditor might be able to understand something - without having to bother to read anything at all, certainly nothing as complicated as my very own comment here🤪.
PieFed.zip is not "negligent", nor have I seen any hint or question that it ever might have been? There was concern that it might rather have been "Choose your own adventure" (and if so, then what would be wrong with that?) rather than "Newbie-friendly", but even that was cleared up in favor of the latter.
The person you are responding to is being negligent themselves (in their wording choice) if they are accusing piefed.zip of being negligent.
PieFed.zip is a wonderful instance and to anyone else reading, it is highly recommended by many people to check it out and then recommend it to others as a great default Threadiverse instance (as lemmy.zip likewise used to be, before PieFed's additional features eclipsed Lemmy's).
