TLDR: The main reason was Lemmy hogging server resources.
Last year, during the Reddit 2023 API controversy I finally deleted my account and moved on to Lemmy. Here’s a look at my experiences and why I eventually decided to switch to PieFed.
What are the main differences from a user perspective rather than hosting? Is it worth checking out?
I think it is.
-You can arrange communities it topics
- you can show community posts as å wall of thumbnails, nice for memes
- shows user reputation
- you can hide posts from searches
- moderation tools (there are more)
- you can post videos and polls
- better integration with PeerTube
- keyword filters
But it doesn’t have an API for 3rd parties
‘subscribe to anything’ is handy, too. I’m subscribed to this post, for instance, so get notifications of new top-level comments.
