Perhaps something y'all can have a chat about or collab on
I think PieFed support is still in beta for Voyager. As I am seeing it, updates for Voyager got rarer in the last months, so I guess the developer has other stuff to do. I don't know if they feel comfortable with officially supporting PieFed. I still have some annoying bugs for more than a year now, like auto fill not working for link posts that haven't been fixed forever.
PS. I chose to promote PieFed over Lemmy because when I tried to promote Lemmy in the past, it's just met with people who have tried Lemmy and were met with tankies and bad UX, and they're vocal about it in the comments so the post doesn't get much engagement.
Where as with PieFed the engagement has been quite positive as you can see in the posts linked here
Ideally the name would make it painfully obvious that this is the correct app when users search "PieFed"
Eg. "PieFed through Voyager" but anything is better than the current situation
I think of the nice things about PieFed is that you don't need to install an app, you can 'install' the webapp, which works just fine.
Alternatively, you can point people to a bunch of apps that work for both PieFed and Lemmy.
But yeah, I see your point, ideally an immediately usable app shows up when people search for piefed in the Play/App Store.

Meanwhile, Voyager works great . :) I started with the PWA, but I like using Voyager a lot more because of the presentation, the swipe gestures (I was a user of Apollo for Reddit on iOS, Voyager is the closest experience). The PWA is decent, but to me a dedicated mobile app is two classes above.
