The lemmy devs have arguably much more problematic opinions, but they were also wise enough to keep their opinions in their instance, and out of the code itself.
He’s radically anti-left, with a block list of leftist users and instances that is only dwarfed by Tesseract.
Codes in censorship features and tries to sneak them by people before getting called out and making them optional for other instances while acting like he’s such a great person for doing so.
And really random stuff such as coding memes and gifs to be hard to discover and sort lower, putting limits on how often people can vote, making the software harder for the people who contribute the most content to try and force them to be less active.
Comparing PieFed to Voat is however accurate. Both are anti-left platforms.
Absolutely dripping with Hitler Particles
Only Anarchism is left enough, eh?
lemmygrad and hexbear are blocked automatically by default on the piefed server software
What’s up with PieFed?
The dev has opinions, and isn’t afraid to use his software to censor differing ones.
As opposed to the Lemmy devs, who are opinion-free lol

That’s fair, yeah

There’s probably more, but this is what a quick search turned up
Guess I’m returning to Lemmy, then…
There’s also a piefed fork named pylova, currently in use by quokk.au. They could use some support.
I’ll look into it! Although, I did just move to slrpnk.net…
Stay there and get them to move over to pylova. They’re still using a compatible backend at this point :)
Ah jeez I gotta move again? Just can’t catch a break with these mfrs.
