TLDR: The main reason was Lemmy hogging sever resources.

Last year, during the Reddit 2023 API controversy I finally deleted my account and moved on to Lemmy. Here’s a look at my experiences and why I eventually decided to switch to PieFed.

Good read. Piefed looks like a promising and active project with interesting features. Did you try Lemmy with the new 0.19.4 ? That upgrade makes it more smooth for me.

That upgrade made me switch, because the load on my server was so high it brought all the services down.
