Other than DNS login, how does this differ from lemmy federate?

My number one concern is that now there are two services providing what appears to be the same service, some instances will use one of them, some will use another. That could harm community discovery unless we sign up to both.

Is there, for example, better piefed support?

Thanks, the only thing that changed is the latest update to piefed. Is @rimu@piefed.social aware of any changes that might break the connection?

Hey so I'm like a week behind here, but piefed.zip (and lemmy.zip) already blocks hexbear, lemmygrad, and lemmynsfw by default, and sends a PM to the user when they sign up to let them know why we do this, and how to remove it.

I'll look in to instance labels. Piefed has a lot of features, which is great, but are many hard to find or not well documented.

+1 to everything you've said (as someone running lemmy + piefed instances)!

I feel really lucky in the admin team and the support from many of our users too, but I can absolutely see where sunaurus came from and why he dropped it.

I am one of those people who has issues with catbox.moe too unfortunately. And now imgur with the UK block 🙄

More than happy for you to upload directly ☺️

Image storage is relatively cheap, so if you want to upload directly that's fine with me 😊

Here's a picture of a cat!
