I’ve seen people bring this up as another federated aggregator just recently, and I have a few questions,

  1. What advantages/disadvantages does it have over Lemmy? I’m more interested in user experience stuff (I have PTSD from moderating a community on reddit years ago and way too little free time to be an admin), but the technical stuff is interesting (even if I only like 40% understand it).

  2. Can I see and interact with PieFed instances and communities from a federated Lemmy instance? What about the other way around?

  3. Is there a way for people to migrate an account from Lemmy to PieFed? What about the other way around?

  4. What android app options are available for PieFed? Sorry, “the website is the app” is not how I like to do it

  5. Any other questions you think I should be asking?

    Yes. You can follow a user and get notifications when they post something.

    You can follow a user, a community, an individual post, a comment, a topic (collection of communities), and a feed (user made collections of communities).

    Then you get notifications for posts/replies as relevant.
