I keep forgetting about the dev issues, lol. Deffo legitimate problems one might have with a software for sure. I don't run into that a lot over here on Lemmy.ca though, which is nice.

I stand by my assessment though. It's still weird to me to promote one thing by shooting down another. Feels too much like politics in North America to me. They could have made a "Support Piefed" community instead.

I agree, this whole idea of canceling Lemmy is weird and just feels reactionary. Also Piefed running on Python doesn't seem like something that can scale well nor something that can be perpetually worked on for the long haul without running into issues with new python releases and compatibility with them.
