In-line spoilers (piefed.social)

Just testing to see whether || in-line spoilers || are working now for piefed. Hover to find out!

The syntax is || spoilery text here || and it render in-line. It should look familiar to you if you use discord or telegram as the syntax is the same.

Remember to use your newfound powers responsibly as in-line spoilers are not yet supported by most other fediverse software!

What's piefed exactly?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's a different piece of fediverse software, like lemmy or mbin. Users on a piefed instance can subscribe to lemmy communities and vice-versa (like you commenting on a piefed community/post). See here for more info.

What advantages does it offer over Lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Sooooooooo many. So as someone who posts a lot, Piefed offers so many different features I have been begging from lemmy.

  1. Post Notifications - You can turn the fuckers on and off. FINALLY MY INBOX WON'T HAVE 1300 GODDAMN NOTIFICATIONS.

  2. NSFW tags as well as NSFL tags. That's pretty neat to have a way to differentiate.

  3. Inbox has a toggle to enable pop up notifications, which I really dig, but they also condense the messages to make them easier to deal with.

  1. Better themes.

  2. The devs of Lemmy are... problematic. They're also, from everything that I've heard (and I talk to a surprising number of people behind the scenes), a fucking nightmare to work with both personally and professionally. Piefed doesn't have the same baggage.

  3. Lemmy is Rust. Piefed is... something else that's more commonly used which means more on-hand devs.

  4. Small other little bells and whistles that stack up. Makes Lemmy look behind the times in a lot of ways.

Thanks for taking the time to write that up.
