MODERATORS
It seems that a lot of new people have learned about these platforms from a popular post on Reddit. We currently see ~~78 notifications (and counting) and a pile of applications on piefed.ca~~ too many registration applications for me to keep this up to date.
I am pinning this thread on both platforms for new users to pop in to and ask questions. Please give them a warm welcome!
Please let us know how we can help! For example, here are some tips on finding communities: https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/how-to-find-communities The guide says Lemmy, but the steps are the same on Piefed
Since a lot of people arrived here from r/BuyCanadian, maybe you will be interested in !buycanadian@lemmy.ca

Is there an iOS version?
You can use Mlem instead written in Swift.
Is Mlem Canadian?
Sadly it’s American but it’s a good app.
Okay well thats better than nothing I guess. Blorp is also a good app that supports Piefed. Don't know which country it originates from though
Thank you! I will try it!
