I just moved my instance over to PieFed on the weekend.
If anyone is looking for a smaller PieFed instance away from the bigger players, we'd love to have you here at quokk.au.
Interested, how do I move an instance from Lemmy to piefed?
At the moment, you basically have to restart it all with a fresh install of PieFed on your server.
They are working on features options to transfer over and copy the content etc, but that may be many months away still.
So I will stick on Lemmy for the time being. After all I don't care for down votes, I think votes in general should not be private, because this is like a public plaza what you say is public, and attaching a reputation because of down votes is dangerously bullying and a slippery slope, so piefed doesn't actually feel like my pie at the moment.
Still maybe I will try a fresh installation just to check it out.
I agree with this, both of these things are bad on their own but together they are extremely bad. Like it encourages the same groupthink as there is on Reddit while also allowing easy vote manipulation to help yourself and hurt others. Really bad combination.
