Kaity has just spun up a PieFed instance, which is open to anyone that wants to try it out.

PieFed is part of the "Threadiverse" along with lemmy and mbin. If you are already reading this in lemmy, then you already know what PieFed is about.

If you're curious to try it out, or if you're just looking for a way to avoid lemmy, you can find it at https://piefed.blahaj.zone/

Like our lemmy instance, we have set PieFed applications to require manual approval, but if you're already a member of our lemmy instance, you can get auto approved by our modbot by quoting your registration code somewhere in your application.

We don't have a point of comparison so far, because the instances don't share the same concurrent user numbers, but it would be hard to beat lemmy, which is really light for the volume it handles.

Ok, thanks! Kind of what I expected both in terms of not being able to compare exactly and Lemmy being light. I appreciate it.

From what I understand (and note that this is unsubstantiated, because we just simply don't have the same size userbase/activity here), while lemmy is fairly good, piefed is supposedly even better.

The caveat here is of course that over time, software maturity and changes in prioritization of features (sacrificing efficiency for functionality or ease of use usually) results in certain decisions being made that affect the resource requirements.

It happened with lemmy (it used to be way more efficient than it is now), and it will happen to piefed too.
