Memes about the Fediverse.

It's definitely the latest hot tool on the Fediverse, it'll be great to know about it even if for some reason you decide to stick with a Lemmy instance. Although my guess is that one glance at the features and you will fall in love, switch, and stay with it forever - yes I truly believe that:-).
Like one of the absolute best features if how it allows you to have your cake and eat it too: on the Threadiverse it can be harder to find more niche content, but those Categories of Communities (oops, now called "Topics" I forgot) really help you dig deeper. A positive example is poetry, often ignored by most Lemmings, but it's one of the featured ones - e.g. Arts & Crafts @ piefed.social, then the sub-category/topic of "Arts".
e.g. if you get overwhelmed by "politics" literally EVERYWHERE, you can unsubscribe to the political communities, yet always have politics available at the touch of a button by visiting the News & Politics Topic page (subdivisions of USA, World, and RSS Feeds), this is what I mean by "having your cake" (ability to not join these communities, so that their content does not overwhelm your Subscribed feed) while also "eating it too" (ability to still read & easily find it).
As you can guess, it can take awhile to get used to what PieFed offers and fully optimize it to tailor it to your wants - but it's just fantastic that it even offers it in the first place, free, and also free of tankie philosophies as well, it's amazing!:-P
No politics? Shit, I needa find me a nice app, fast. I am a fan of Jerboa for its simplicity, but it's Lemmy-only, I reckon. I think it's an "official" Lemmy app (could be wrong, tho)
Not just no politics but the ability to both have far less of it while still reading up on it when you want! Tbf a true "no politics" would be nearly impossible - e.g. is an OC painting "political" if it depicts an image of Trump?
The best features of PieFed are going to be in the web UI for awhile until app devs catch up. In addition to Voyager as someone mentioned, there is also Interstellar and several others, as well as a Thunder fork (but not checked into the main code available on the App store yet).
I heard on the grapevine that Voyager is working on Piefed support.
It's in beta right now. I'm using it to comment.
Voyager looks like it'd fit better on iOS. But maybe I'll give it a try, eventually
There's Summit for Android
