PieFed, a FOSS Feed Aggregator alternative to Lemmy, but faster
(join.piefed.social)
Welcome to a new era of interconnected content discussion with PieFed โ a link aggregator, a forum, a hub of social interaction and information, built for the fediverse. Our focus is on individual control, safety, and decentralised power.
Like other platforms in the fediverse, we are a self-governed space for social link aggregation and conversation. We operate without the influence of corporate entities โ ensuring that your experience is free of advertisements, invasive tracking, or secret algorithms. On our platform, content is grouped into communities, allowing you to engage with topics of interest and disregard the irrelevant ones. We utilise a voting system to highlight the best content.
Video introduction the codebase
I believe one of the killer features is the ability to aggregate different communities.
Multi-communities? Really? ๐
Yes really. Here's an example - see the communities at the top, and hashtags at the bottom.
On second thought, that's not a fantastic example of categories, so here and here are better ones.
There's a lot that is not yet implemented in PieFed, like no preview feature for writing messages or user tagging (e.g. @openstars@piefed.social does not send me a notification), yet it already has several features that Lemmy does not - it's so exciting to watch it develop!:-)
Codebase is clean too.
I actually don't like that feature cause it's not something the user chooses, it's up to the dev or admin (not sure which).
