I assume both are kind of a backup/plan B instances

I know that Lemmy blahaj have been holding back updating their Lemmy for quite some time waiting for another back end if I understand it right.

regardless of my thinking out loud, glad to see more piefed adoption. it really is great especially the new users on boarding. app situation is slowly getting better, but truth be told, I'm fine with using piefed on mobile browser.

Our lemmy instance is up to date. It's our sharkey instance that needs work done that we haven't got around to yet.

As for Piefed, we spun it up mostly because it's feature rich and many folk are uncomfortable with the politics of the lemmy devs. Migration wasn't an option, because there is no database migration pathway, so we just spun up a dedicated instance.

The admin of slrpnk.net and rimu will be investigating a pathway to migrating an entire Lemmy instance to piefed, which may be of interest to you.

Ah, I'm sorry I got it wrong. I based on others' hearsay, which is a mistake.

You’re actually right for Beehaw. You may have mistaked piefed and Beehaw

But originally they were running an old version of lemmy waiting to transfer to nodebb

guess that’s been delayed?
