A lot of people talk up PieFed, and I think I found a community I like (RetroFed, they're based around retro gaming, but they're also new, so I'm not really trying to push them per se) so I signed up with them... so, aside from looking a little different, what's really different here?

Not really looking for a "PieFed vs Lemmy" debate kind of thing, more of a "hey check this out" vibe.

PieFed born because of political differences (Lemmy devs are China fanboys and banned many persons, including in Github). It's not my experience and knowledge but all know it.

PieFed has improvements in efficiency (images and general things). More modern but new. Lemmy has more community. Probably, in the future Lemmy 'll migrate (for huge advantages) but not today.

my first community eas lemm.ee and was closed

after, I knew the admi was a developer in Lemmy group and he was very angry for "the direction of Lemmy" (the Commies developers + Bosses in lemmy.ml)
