Would you like some pie? Check it out here: https://piefed.ca/
What is PieFed
PieFed follows a similar format as Lemmy and Mbin. Those that are familiar with Lemmy will find it very similar, with some additional features including topic lists, optional private voting, new mod and admin tools, crosspost de-duplication, community wikis, etc. Thanks to how the fediverse works, you can use either lemmy.ca or piefed.ca to interact freely!
We will put together some guides on our non-profit’s website at some point. In the meantime, we have created [email protected] for us to learn from each other. There is also the official [email protected] community which has a similar purpose.
We have done some testing and we are learning as we go, but please bear with us while this new platform gets going 🙂
Other Links & FAQ
- lemmy.ca is not migrating to PieFed. We will run both instances at the same time. You can use whichever one you prefer.

Hello from the other side!
Is the API active? I want to use PieFed over Lemmy, but don’t like to join so called “flagship instances”, they always go overboard with moderation at some point.
So instead of joining piefed.social I signed up with .au, only to find out that the admin never bothered to activate the api, so can’t use any apps, and posts aren’t federating outwards properly.
Edit: Confirmed working, registration sent.
Edit 2: Approved within 5 min, thanks for that!
I’m just happy we have another Canadian instance
I’m not quite sure what this is and why I should use this over Lemmy … but I’d like to give it a try lol! Also very cool how the Fediverse allows for different entry points and view the same content.
Congrats on the expansion!
We’re also learning as we go :) In addition to the features mentioned in the post, a big one for regional instances like ours might be the topic lists (once we set those up anyway)
Congrats on the expansion!
Thanks!
Nice. Already registered.
Is there a recommended android app for it?I just saw the FAQ section after.
Trying out PieFed after 2 years of Lemmy and it’s looking more and more like Voyager has ended it’s time on my phone
Congratulations!
It suck that they implements karma and collapsing downvoted comments. Two censorship methods
The downvotes and karma do not stop you from saying whatever you want. It just means you have to say it somewhere else. Hence, you are not censored.
When a comment is collapsed , people tend to skip the comment. Hiding stuffs is censorship
It’s just improving the signal-to-noise ratio.
