Thanks for the context. I rarely comment on your posts but seen them a lot. You will be sorely missed.
I've batted for piefed.social over in reddit to bring people into the threadiverse as well as here to newcomers that might want all the other good features piefed have. I guess I'll have to change instances, where I'm on as well as what I recommend.
What do you think you will end up recommending?
Discuss.Online used to be one of the top go-tos, prior to the rise in prominence of PieFed. Very high stability and quite welcoming to anyone who wants friendly discourse.
PieFed.zip is still one option too, as they seem resistant to all the anti-social media bias making its way into the PieFed software as of late. Lemmy.zip was also always one of the top options as well. I'm a bit personally biased against the .zip domains being run by Google but for a Redditor this likely won't matter in the slightest, and the admin team seems at first glance to be very sensible.
I would not recommend PieFed.ca though, bc while it is a very fine instance, when the USA invades Canada or otherwise increases tensions that's going to be more problematic in the future.
I'm curious to hear your thoughts as well.:-)
I recommended piefed.social just because it's the flagship piefed instance. What I really love is the software. Namely the on boarding where piefed asks you of topics one might be interested in, subscribe to those topics and their comms, upfront saying one can block certain terms and the user capability to make multicomms. Because what I struggled with the last 2 times trying Lemmy is the content, of the lack of "helping hand" and tips to control a new user's experience having All firehose of content. My third time I tried again starting with Lemmy, then mbin asi read around, then right around the birth of this account, piefed showed up. Instantly clicked, and I stayed.
So probably other piefed based instance, but I've yet to decide which one. I'm leaning towards piefed.zip just because they block the least instances I've seen. But that will be for my own next home, not necessarily for all strangers that I might recommend
