    Oh definitely!

    As usual, the biggest hurdle at the moment to recommend Piefed for new joiners is the lack of mobile app. I know someone is working on the Thunder fork and the API, once this is done we can definitely start recommend Piefed more.

    Edit: That’s also why I recommend lemmy.zip, they started hiding some communities from the All feed (users can still subscribe if they will), which helps a bit with having a less “US politics only” feed

      That someone is me. The developer of Interstellar (which already works with both MBIN and Lemmy) has been in touch about also adding PieFed, so I’ve been adding stuff to the API that he’s requested. If he’s able to go ahead, then Interstellar will be a better prospect than the Thunder fork (which works, but I need to have a better understanding of Dart / Flutter to properly improve it. That said, the developer of Thunder has also been in touch, so I’ll have someone to ask once I know the right questions to ask, if that makes sense).
