It’s not fun interacting with them when they often want to engage in ad hominems. This is why I have no interest in the tankie triad.

So it’s more than just a different instance?
Yes it offers unique user and moderator features on top of pretty much all the same features as Lemmy.
The choice of language they are using for it will be a hindrance and a help. Python is much more accessible for many programmers than rust. However it is not always as performant as rust. They may encounter bottlenecks with scaling and a few other things. Which can be alleviated by using a language that is specifically designed for those things. Then those code modules can be called by the rest of the python code no problem.
But as a much younger project piefed has already made massive strides and even stepped out ahead of lemmy. Lemmy had a 4 year head start. Combined with no clear moral qualms with the developers. It’s clear why many are excited for piefed.
