What to choose between Lemmy, Mbin and PieFed, features-wise?
Since users and communities are equally accessible, I just need to know what are the pros and cons of them, I really can’t figure it out without a extensive time of use

Mbin/Kbin is pretty nice, though it lacks mobile apps. I would switch to it if it had a few mobile apps, but we only have interstellar, which is pretty much alpha.

(Interstellar dev here) Not sure what you mean by alpha. Sure, Interstellar could always use improvements, but that's the same as with any app. I, and I'm assuming many other people, daily use Interstellar, and mainly without any issue.

If you have any specific feedback you'd like to provide, I am very welcome to it. Many times that people have mentioned a bug/issue, I've tried to incorporate a change that would fix said issue within an update or so (several were even incorporated in the update that was just released).

I will admit, we need more developers working on Interstellar, but someone making a whole new Mbin app would do completely the opposite of what Interstellar needs (it would mean fewer potential developers working on Interstellar).

I've worked hard on this app for over a year at this point, and I would have considered it alpha at the beginning, but at this point, it is definitely ready for general use and not "alpha". As the solo "active" contributor (I appreciate all the not as active contributors as well), I just can't work on everything all at once.

While I don't use mbin/kbin, thank you for your work. More software means more decentralization, which is healthy. The fediverse is a better place with you in it :)
