Hi all, this is just a quick update to let you know I've set up a Discord channel that is bridged to our Matrix chat.

For a long time we've had a Matrix chat room, many people joined in the early days but over time that fell off and became just a handful of regulars. Matrix isn't exactly common, and many users are only using Matrix for Lemmy and they have Discord for their other groups. So I've now set up a bridge so you can message to the Discord channel and it will appear in the Matrix room, and vice versa.

Check out our help page on the chatroom, or click these direct links to join:

Is PieFed "better" than Lemmy in the sense that there is more / different content? It looks like there are distinct / different posts when I browse it.

    In theory no, they should both have access to the same content. Are there any examples of posts you see on PieFed but not Lemmy?

    There are a bunch of reasons that come to mind. Sorting algorithms are different, for one, so you may see different posts even if the same ones are on both platforms. Secondly, PieFed has some powerful set up functions that allow you to pull communities from other instances or from the lemmyverse.net/communities list, rather than needing someone to find and subscribe. PieFed also recently scaled up it's mastodon integration, so now there's a "Microblogs" community where mastodon posts go if they weren't posted to a lemmy community, which may be content not available from Lemmy.
