Please do whatever you need to in order to become okay. We will miss having as much of your presence, but perhaps after a break you will enjoy your new set of contributions much better. Regardless, you deserve a rest - you've done far more than most of us to advance the cause of the Threadiverse.

Thank you.

    I disagree with the whole reply controls sections. If you make a public statement on social media, then people should be allowed to directly address that statement. Forbidding certain unwanted people from replying to your own posts would allow posters to censor all criticism.

    Thank nice analysis :)

    Hence mastodon is the serious place and lemmy is the fun comic place in my life. Piefed would be the serious version of Lemmy I guess? shrug

    I don't know. On french that would be the opposite. Mastodon is more chill than the threadiverse. We have lot meme but that depend on your subcriptions and the french fediverse mostly use mastodon.

    I don't see piefed as a serious version of lemmy. i can subcribe to meme community and block every post on politic by keywords or community. On mastodon, i don't know what will they post because they don't have group, community.

    For me the huge difference, until lemmy v1, is that piefed merge comment from post that share the same link, and merge every related community under a feed. For example this one : https://piefed.social/f/fediverse

    And there are some front-end as Blorp, voyager (?). Pylova is also worth mentioning, they focus on UI and improve piefed features. It pain me to see them apart...

    Even on reddit, there are two general buckets of forum style user: those who make it an identity, and those who rotate accounts and remain anonymous.(1) Piefed tends to favor the former and Lemmy the latter based on the feature matrix presented. I use Mastodon for the former. I still read reddit for my game and the news coverage is better (I have a multireddit of all the news subreddits, something Lemmy can't do yet).(2)

    (1) these tend to trend with the type of content as I consume both; the former seems to be much more engaged in posting real world news, blog articles and the like, whereas the latter tend to enjoy the comics, memes, jokes and other lighthearted content. Hence mastodon is the serious place and lemmy is the fun comic place in my life. Piefed would be the serious version of Lemmy I guess? shrug

    (2) aside, I don't like the Piefed webUI so beyond testing accounts with it, do not spend a lot of time using it. I like the Lemmy webUI much, much better and it's what I use a lot of the time. I've heard it can do something like mulitreddits but, well...

    I don't know what test you mean. But I did a test, following to your comment. I connected respectively followed my vutuv account from Piefed. Then I made a post and a change to my CV on vutuv. The post was shown quickly on Piefed, but the change to CV was not. Then I commented the post on both platforms and reacted with a vote and an emoji reaction on Piefed. The comment from vutuv was shown in piefed. The comment on Piefed was not shown on vutuv. The reactions and the vote did not pass in any direction. I have seen exactly the same behavior between Piefed and Pixelfed, by the way. I do not use Mastodon, so I cannot test from there. Maybe it works better, as the apps explicitly mentioned Mastodon in some places.
