Every time I go to the piefed frontpage I'm blown away by how much more polished it is. It has all the bells and whistles that lemmy is sometimes missing.

Whats the catch? Why aren't we recommending everyone goes to piefed instead of lemmy?

App support is one thing I can think of.

My biggest issue with Piefed is how much space the UI uses. Last I checked it didn't have a "compact mode" like current Lemmy or Alexandrite. Browsing communities is also a bit awkward since it shows you so many topics without a way to sort or remove them.

That is exactly the main reason I created my own theme, but yeah there should be a official compact theme, especially for the mobile phone.

Thank for your feedback.

Maybe you can tell them ? I'm giving feedback to piefed dev on their UI, suggesting ideas is also part of PieFed's development. :)
