What should the default home page sort be for anonymous browsing? Question

by
PieFed dev

Assuming ‘popular’ was the default filter (which shows a bunch of harmless mainstream communities), which sort would give the best impression to new people?

Is this the community for support? Question Solved

by

Hi y’all. I signed up recently and still getting acquainted with the interface. Is there any way to change/collapse the posts? I’m not sure I want this “feed” style of browsing. Something like old Reddit would be great. Thanks!

Where should the line be drawn for using the "AI generated" check box? Question

In particular I’m not sure if my "woke cat" comics should have the box checked for future posts.

Can ai generated content go around existing filters that prevent spam and illegal content? Question

by

Pretty much the question. Is it different enough from regular crap to be missed or is the prevention working fine?

How do you create topics? Question

by

New to PieFed here. From my understanding: topics are a collection of communities, allowing you to see all their posts in one feed, right? In my instance, I can’t create a topic, only if I’m already in one? It feels a little confusing. Any advice?

Scheduled Post With Image Question Question

by

I am scheduling posts that include an image from my phone. Some are scheduled for a week or more away. Do I have to keep the image on my phone until after it goes live, or are the images immediately uploaded to the server when I schedule it? Basically, if I delete the image from my phone before the scheduled time, will the image be there or will it be the error box?

What happened here? Does piefed let you send abusive replies to people's inboxes while stopping them from replying? Question

by
A screenshot of the message, with the attached error saying I can't reply

Someone just called me a “hardcore conservative” in an era where that’s basically code for “hardcore climate change denialist” and I had to get a notification for it and see it in my inbox but not be able to reply?

I recently made one of my best memes yet, but people on piefed/lemmy have hated it so far across multiple communities.

No Crossposting? Features Question

On lemmy you can cross-post (share) posts to other communities. On piefed I couldn’t find anything similar. Am I missing something?

How many posts per hour is acceptable? Question

by
PieFed dev

I recently did a bit of digging and found that the most-blocked accounts are those that do big floods of posts, some only seconds apart. One possible way to deal with this could be to rate-limit the posts by turning posts into unpublished scheduled posts when they start posting too fast. The scheduled posts would eventually be published, but in the future at a sensible speed. But when should the rate limit kick in?

Do PieFed and mbin have the same Tor support issue as Lemmy? Question

I got a lot of backlash for a thread on Lemmy the other day about how the “federation” system is fundamentally broken by its lack of Tor support.

Altering Alt Texts Question Solved

by

I noticed that after editing a post’s alt texts, it doesn’t change. Is it supposed to be that way or is it an oversight?
