This will be my last post on Lemmy...

Unfortunately, the time has come for me to leave Lemmy. Time will show where we all end up. I'll see you in the future... maybe sooner than you think?
Edit: Follow up post is here. Don't worry. You're not getting rid of me that easy. I'm just switching to piefed.world
wrote last edited by [email protected]I humbly reserve the right to give you a hug, if you'd consent, for all you did for us. Also I would like your permission to kick you in the balls for this "announcement". If your biology doesn't allow for that, don't worry, I've got a magic spell that can give you balls just long enough for me to kick them.
Just kidding, love you

I use boost on my phone too! Definitely waiting for implementation from Ruben. But I don't mind waiting. The dudes a superhero as far as I'm concerned.
Big big shoutout to Boost for Android. FANTASTIC APP and my favorite by far.

Yeah just switching to Piefed.world, no worries. Sorry I made you waste all that effort
What is a piefed?

Just being an annoying little shit and announcing my switch to piefed.world in the most annoying way possible. You know. For consistency.
I really like sh.itjust.works and I'm a mod here. But if I wasn't, I'd be going to piefed's main instance in a second. They seem to have a nice configuration. Not a fan of world, but I'm sure there are other great instances.

I'm an idiot and it's hard to explain but this announcement explains it pretty easily.
It functions on the fediverse, just like Lemmy, but is a different platform/front end. They function damn near identically but Piefed has a more active development team that actually responds to requests and a dev team that isn't transphobic as hell. That's the selling point for me. I think the only feature that's not available on Piefed that I use pretty often is being able to paste images into text blocks. Fairly sure they're working on that too. You can upload them, there's a clicky for it, but it just won't automatically upload and paste the link like it does on Lemmy. Literally the only thing "missing" that I've noticed.

I've got some philosophical disagreements with the Admin of piefed.social. Nothing negative or anything, we just disagree on a few things and see things differently. Mostly on memes. Lemmy.world and piefed.world I've been lucky enough to have great experiences with which is why I'm sticking around, despite probing from admin buddies of other instances to go to their lemmy or their piefed. Including one particular admin of dbzer0 who wants me to move over, the lovable asshole.

Actually you missed this one.

Oh, any specific reason you're switching software?

Piefed has a few extra features that I like and I know that the couple features that are currently missing are on their way. The development team is pretty quick to respond which doesn't affect me a ton but I don't want to support a shitty dev team. Which then lines up with the third big reason, the Lemmy devs are transphobic assholes. If I'm going to be posting a lot then I don't want to be doing it using what they made.
Also Fxomt is convincing.

They only offer Premium LITE now, which feels extremely ironic after rejecting it all these years. It's like: "So, you declined my offer for years but have you considered... a WORSE OFFER, human?"

Haha, convincing or persistent? I guess he can be both

This is kinda a big deal for me too tbh. Do you happen to know, is there a good (android) piefed app, or is it website only for now? I imagine there'll be some of their aren't already, but my brief play store search wasn't very fruitful.

I don't actually know and I'm kind of ashamed to admit that. I've heard that Voyager has got some early support but I know nothing about any other apps. I'm sorry!

I continue to download all videos and watch them locally to skip out on ads. Some channels bake them right in the video, but a few quick mouse clicks jump me over that garbage. When downloads stop working, I will find something else to pass the time.
