How come these accusations aren’t thrown at piefed? Like it’s almost the exact same thing as lemmy just with more features like multi-community feeds, which could entice users over to piefed and leave current lemmy behind.

Or is EEE only EEE if it’s a corporation doing it?

Edit: I’m legit asking, I objectively don’t understand the difference between the two unless we’re taking motive into account? But that’s hard to prove motive either way.

But what data would federating give them that they couldn’t just get on the public internet right now? They could already scrape all of this from mastodon already if data was all that they’re after.

It’s not just data they’re after.

Late 90s for me and we were VERY into music so a lot of my early internet experience was on a site called shoutweb.com. It had news articles and forums dedicated to music and tours.

It was so much better to be able to search through and find different fan websites and forums. Nowadays that’s just Reddit and Facebook groups, and although I don’t use either anymore, they were never as good or as fun and compelling as all the fan sites made back in the day.

Make a list and claim it’s 100% complete. I bet people come with all the receipts to prove you wrong. Then use all that info to build a (probably) fairly complete list lol
