The post was made in the news@lemmy.world community and other posts linking to the same news article were made in technology@lemmy.world and in askusa@discuss.online. 3 different posts in 3 different communities.

PieFed de-duplicates them and only shows the post once in the timeline and when viewing the post all the comments on those 3 posts are shown in one place.

The fragmentation problem is solved.

Piefed keeps leading the charge eh? With every new feature added I wish even more that there was a mobile app for it. Well, that or Lemmy devs taking some inspiration and implementing something similar, I guess.

Thunder fork is ongoing

I'll keep an eye on it, thanks! I was looking at Thunder the other day actually since Sync is probably going to stop working eventually. Sadly I found it a little buggy and lacking some features, but I'll follow its development for sure.

!summit@lemmy.world is getting a lot of updates at the moment, you might be interested!

I'm following it as well! Still waiting on some features for it to be my daily driver, but I love how responsive and active the dev seems to be.

Good news - https://join.piefed.social/docs/piefed-mobile/

When we do get a real mobile app out the door (not just a PWA), it'll be hard to keep it up to date with the web app. So many moving parts. We'll need to either slow down the charge or let the mobile app lag quite a lot.

It'd be so much better if everyone just used the PWA.
