Piefed is another instance type that is growing in popularity, and a few instances are now turning on the API. As such, apps are also implementing support.

It would be great if Boost would support it too. Hopefully the extra development overhead isn't too bad.

Some recent discussion: https://piefed.social/post/817564

The page for developers:

The API for third-party apps (frontends, bots, etc) is 95% the same as the Lemmy API.

The first time I heard about Piefed was in the context of the problematic views of the Lemmy developers, so I would assume the Piefed ones are better in that respect.
