Hi All,

As the Fediverse continues to expand, we're looking at other platforms we can run with our ethos - open federation, user choice, and fair moderation.

We've seen lots of talk about Piefed, and the benefits of the platform, such as better moderation, combining multiple communities into topics i.e piefed.zip/topic/cats, and the ability for users to better control their own experience.

To that end, we've decided to run our own Piefed instance, located at piefed.zip (I know, original!)

This is very much still under construction, but we feel is now able to accept new users, should anyone wish to join.

If you're interested please check it out, or feel free to ask any questions!

PS - this doesn't affect our Lemmy instance in any way.

Not to be a shill... but lots of commercial systems have run on python: https://inoxoft.com/blog/top-23-applications-made-with-python/

Not just for data science, but in core services, including Dropbox, Instacart, Instagram, and Reddit. It's pretty good at getting something up and running, and there are lots of published tricks for optimizing it so it scales.
