PieFed is seeing quite steady growth, nice to see.

Anyone know what that blip was?

Lemmy has a lot of tankie influence is a big factor, communists, they are kind of dicks, to put it lightly.

This is why I've moved away from Lemmy and now do my monthly donations to Piefed.

Thank you for your contributions, SatansMaggotyCumFart

Yup. I actually pulled my Lemmy donations when Nutomic started his begging campaign last year with his "come on guys my kids need to eat" sob story while still refusing to actually apologize for his transphobia and still defending Dessalines problematic... Everything.

Fucking dumpster fire. Piefed is the way

And they add new features at less than half the rate the piefed devs too. Too busy posting about how the Uyghur reeducation camps are ethical to write code, I guess.

And the quality of their code sucks. They're using Rust, which is the most memory safe programming language, yet a Lemmy server eats twice as much memory as a piefed server with twice the users.

My first account on my first day or so I said something on one of their threads, thinking they were just super politically correct leftists, and they jumped all over me. Followed me around for months, the entire time I was on that instance really, some made non tankie instance accounts just to troll me. Pathetic really, but I got sick of it, I can give better than they can but I don't want to get in pissing matches with trolls all the time.

They've actually never followed me out of their echo chambers I think because the light it bright and it hurts their eyes.

You see, I didn't know they were communists, so didn't see why they would be offended by my comment, so defended it, like 50 replies if not more to hundreds of comments from multiple users jumping on my shit, until one of the cool ones explained to me they were communists mostly living outside the US, so I started ignoring them. But one of their enforcer types demanded I apologize and I told him to eat a dick or something, so that didn't help.

They're not communists, they're Stalinists. Communism is a stateless, moneyless, classless society. They want the people's authoritarian regime to step on their necks with the people's boot.

Communism has been successfully practiced for 60,000 years, but every tankie state either collapses or goes capitalist.

As I called them when they insulted me, the long palsied arm of russian intelligence.
