What is PieFed
PieFed follows a similar format as Lemmy and Mbin. Those that are familiar with Lemmy will find it very similar, with some additional features including topic lists, optional private voting, new mod and admin tools, crosspost de-duplication, community wikis, etc. Thanks to how the fediverse works, you can use either lemmy.ca or piefed.ca to interact freely!
We will put together some guides on our non-profit's website at some point. In the meantime, we have created [email protected] for us to learn from each other. There is also the official [email protected] community which has a similar purpose.
We have done some testing and we are learning as we go, but please bear with us while this new platform gets going ๐

Thank you. I need to find new instance for myself because lemme.ee. can you tell me why you chose blahaj.zone? I don't want to support Russia in any way or form. It should be boycotted.
But I also think that crony capitalism will be our downfall. I try to reduce my reliance on US-based products, serviced and culture. Especially, on giants like google, disney, MS, etc. Boycotting US until they rethink they approach to allies like Canada, EU and Ukraine is also called for.
If you don't mind, what would you recommend to someone who would like their revolution with no gulags?
Iโm new to this as well, I just chose this instance to switch to (also from lemm.ee) because Iโm queer and knew this instance did a good job keeping out assholes.
In general I think most instances on here are leftist or at least left-leaning. The general recommendation for lemm.ee users is currently lemmy.zip, if you want a dedicated political instance I only know of the anarchist lemmy.dbzer0.com (though they are too defensive of genAI for my taste) and the European Federalist feddit.org.
This thread has more recommendations by a more experienced user
I'll look into it. Appreciate your time, thank you. I'm going to search "what instance would Brannan Lee Mulligan choose" and see where this get me ;) see you on the other side.
