Its up to you. They are different software but both read lemmy and Piefed communities and instances.

PieFed has flair and topics, which make it easier to find content you like.

[-] texture@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

oh cool. thanks for the info :3

[-] Ek-Hou-Van-Braai@piefed.social 4 points 2 weeks ago

To me. It's the same thing but PieFed has better UX and more featues.

Which one you pick is for the most part irrelevant.
