    Piefed has quite a few features that Lemmy doesn’t have:

    • multicommunities
    • onboarding process asking new joiners what they are into
    • crossposts comments consolidation
    • communities moderation features
    • posts and user flairs
    • keyword filters

    https://join.piefed.social/features/

    Lemmy should get there in version 1.0, but they still don’t have any precise timeframe for that release, and still need to do some testing https://lemmy.ml/comment/23570258

    You might see a few people discrediting Piefed for some optional filters it offers, but all of those filters are configurable by admins and disabled by default: https://piefed.zip/c/fediverse/p/1005977/piefed-admin-settings-that-allow-to-enable-or-disable-content-filters-they-are-disabled-by

        That looks like one very specific issue rather than a lot of issues of something to really worry about.

        Personally I haven’t noticed had any issues uploading images for posts.

          Lol, why? I don’t use Piefed and besides, I work on my own open source project.

          But seriously, why would I contribute to a project I don’t use and have no association with?

            Because it would address what you talk about above. You dont like it, fix it. Ive done it on quite a few fedi services, its not terribly hard. It makes the world just a tiny bit better.

        I recommend MULTIVERSE, the anarcho-antirealist PieFed server. We have a karma system the same as Reddit, which you’re used to, and we don’t do any extra processing of the score. Some PieFed sites ignore karma earned on meme communities to prevent repost farming, but on MULTIVERSE, we just look at upvotes - downvotes, and unlike Reddit, your karma score means absolutely nothing for your ability to post on communities.

          Does it still prevent people from replying to people that blocked them so the conversation can continue without the blocker?
