▲ 10 ▼ Piefed equivalent of this instance? (lemmy.today) submitted 1 year ago by Paradachshund@lemmy.today to c/lemmytoday@lemmy.today 8 comments fedilink hide all child comments I keep hearing a lot about piefed and I'm curious to try it. I really like this instance, though. Is there something similarly hands off out there for piefed?

I know there were plans at least to make some of the features - like auto-hiding downvoted posts and threads and attaching an icon to accounts that got downvoted - configurable. I don't know if that's actually been done or not, but I assume so. Look - I'm not here to convince you of anything. You asked a question and I gave my opinion in response. You wanted to know if there is "something similarly hands off out there for piefed," and IMO that's not likely, since "hands-off" is one thing that Piefed is not. But yes - it's certainly possible that at least some of the censorship and reputation anti-features are now configurable, and even that someone has started an instance with them all disabled. permalink fedilink source parent
