They will be forever be remembered in our hearts for how well they ran the instance!
One upside to this is that people now have a good excuse to check out Piefed!
Piefed has also listed my language settings to Portuguese.
I can’t wait to see more ui competition in the Piefed world!
Looks like I have my app needs fully covered!
Piefed has just recently started opening the api access on Piefed.social and Feddit.online!
Now this place is really going to be flooded!
I really appreciate how well-ran piefed.social is!
The platform follows the same format as Lemmy but with extra features such as flairs, polls, private votes and combined comments.
Splashes you!
Not one of the titans 😭
Hey Blaze! There are no conflicts between the 2 communities anymore as the Lemmy.dbzer0.com one is no longer being steered by an astroturfer pushing false narratives about the vegan philosophy.
I’m willing to consolidate them together.
Ukraine is cleaning up the mess.
Yes, I agree I don’t think link aggregators are a good place to get encouragement because there is a lot of negativity behind the anonymity with people saying doing anything is impossible.
It’s really frustrating people dont want to recognize Biden’s accomplishments.
That was a terrible video that doesnt explain your points.
“Terrible” video because it doesn’t jive with your confirmation bias. I disagree the video is very made. Why are you dead-set on a system that only works to entrench the 2 big parties. It shows how passing the alternative vote makes democracy less fair in the long run. The top performers on the global metrics are often pr countries such as Norway, Switzerland, Denmark and Iceland while Australia is trailing well behind.

How so? Thats just a transparency issue, if we know that 50% of the Labour votes were originally Green votes then that definitely sets a tone.
Which labour can conveniently ignore because they have a stronger stranglehold on democracy as they receive the lower ranked votes thanks to the funneling effect.
Sounds like projection because Israel isn’t being embargoed.
The British are not protesting against this nonsense enough when this is the behavior that still being espoused from their government. You do not get to them let off the hook!
No because instant runoff-ranked ballots still has the same issues: lack of accountability, under-representation of small parties, hostile politics and the lack of action on issues. The government needs to be heavily pressured to pass proportional representation. It is not difficult for the politicians to do, they’re just inventing excuses for themselves to avoid making British democracy fairer for everyone involved.
Here is a video on why the alternative vote is problematic.
It’s time to knock on their door and hit them in the face with apple pie.
