Somewhere in your profile settings there’s an export. It won’t export your posts, just which communities you follow and who you’ve blocked, etc. Import those into your new account on the new instance.

Great, thanks for sticking with me here your perseverance has made PieFed better!

I’ve just made it so you can log in with an email address and the user name field disregards case. So you can use a mixture of upper and lower case and it’ll cope.

Maybe that’ll help!

Nice one!

Today I added a feature which will help you invite people to join your community - go to https://piefed.social/community/movies/invite

It’ll send a message to fediverse users and emails to others.

As well as the algorithm, there are also structural things.

For example tweets limited to 160 characters favor simplistic solutions, which the far right provide. An endless stream of random unrelated nuggets of ideas create a fugue of confusion, perfect for injecting disinformation. Ruined attention spans can only grasp simplistic solutions. Video-based media means surface appearance matters more than substance. And so on.

PieFed dev here.

PieFed is closer to Lemmy, yeah. Microblogs (i.e. the ability to follow mastodon profiles and have their posts show up in your timeline) are on the roadmap for this year.

Currently, Mastodon users can follow Piefed accounts and the posts from PieFed will show up in the Mastodon user’s timeline. Those posts, viewed in mastodon, can be replied to there and the the reply will show up in PieFed. But not the other way around.
