As you correctly observe below, we get uptime from lemmy-status.org, which doesn’t currently support Piefed. We do plan to expand this feature to Piefed, but it will require finding a new data provider and updating our code to process it, so our priority right now is adding support for features closer to the core interaction loop of the app.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention! We’re looking into it.
Features
- Added initial support for logging into PieFed instances. Please note that many features (e.g., image uploads, inbox, and moderation) are not yet supported.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed images in post bodies always being blurred
