Hello, i am just having a look around piefed. I was surprised to find out that my main account has a low rep. It wasn’t easy to find another person with low rep, actually only was able to find one other after briefly looking for it. Now i am kind of offended, haha.

I added some communities. When i added !birding@lemmy.world and !bicycles@lemmy.ca the communities were empty. I guess that is as expected, since the federation only starts from now on i guess? For some reason though, when i added !bicycle_touring@lemmy.world it shows all the posts, just no comments and no votes. How did this happen? Same for the !camping@sh.itjust.works comm.

I wonder how communities end up in topics? Where is this being curated?

It would be nice if there was a language setting for the piefed UI. I guess it is just going by browser default? I could not find an issue regarding this at codeberg. Maybe i just didn’t find the setting and it’s there?

I tried posting this topic a few minutes ago, to the piefed help comm. While viewing the piefed help comm i clicked “create post” and typed along. After sending, i realized that piefed created the post in !fediverse@lemmy.world. I think that happened because i had not yet subscribed to the piefed help comm. That was very confusing, pretty sure it also only said “fediverse” in the commuinity field, which is also a bit too little information maybe, could have been fediverse@anyotherinstan.ce too. That was a bit awkward.

Piefed looks pretty cool though, i like it!

    If you’re referring to the little icon that looks like a loading icon by your username, that’s for indicating new accounts. I think it goes away in a week. The low rep icon is red version of this: ⚠️

    Yeah, the blank thing happened when I added new communities too

    I’m not sure about the topics, but I think it’s just curated by Rimu, the dev. Though, I though I think it’d be cool if there was a way us users could suggest/nominate communities to be added certain topics.

    I know don’t much about the language settings, though I think it’s being worked on. I saw an issue on the repository that Rimu was asking for assistance for translations.
