Happy with my current instance, but the urge to try out PieFed grows… would probably mean abandoning Mbin though and Mbin is already so tiny compared to Lemmy…

Aren't the communities more important than the platform, as you can access the communities whatever platform you use?

My concern is because regardless of what communities I can access, Mbin is so tiny compared to Lemmy that I feel a bit bad abandoning the less-used Fediverse platform. One less not-Lemmy user, even if I still prop up the same communities with my activities. Well, I'd still be a not-Lemmy user, but I guess one less Mbin user, which I feel could use all the help it can get.

I see what you mean.

I would happily jump from Lemmy to Mbin or Piefed, but I'm missing one key feature that I rely on to browse: "New comments" filter.

This thread has allowed me to ask about those on both sides, so hopefully it will come!

I think this could and should be true. But enough people scroll All that a more community focused dynamic does get dissolved. At least so I fear.

That being said, I feel like all threadiverse platforms could go further in enabling communities to be more well defined spaces.

The private and local only communities features coming from lemmy go toward that I think. But other things like multi communities, wikis, chat, more specific reminders and perhaps visibility options for each post could help too.
