PieFed is just a Fediverse platform that aims to inter-op with Lemmy in much the same way that it aims to inter-op with any other Group-based platform (MBIN, PeerTube, NodeBB, Wordpress).

Lemmy's "quirks" are the reason why your account won't see Polls from MBIN, or channels from PeerTube, or posts from NodeBB, or backfilled content from Wordpress.

It's not my intent to criticise Lemmy, but these are verifiable problems, whereas it doesn't seem fair to criticise PieFed for problems that you can't clearly remember.

Account -> Activity Alerts will show you everything for which you'll get a notification.

Apart from using the word 'dragon', I couldn't see anything about their account that indicates it's an alt. They used 'I' as a pronoun in this comment.

Maybe 23 days ago a mod saw something different.

I've already watched it too much (I only had to see that thumbnail to think "What, no love for Nurchi?") - I'm just pleasantly surprised that it's also available outside the US.

I watched a TV show called 'Justified: City Primeval' - it's not very good, but something I found weird was how often the characters mentioned each other's race I'm from the UK, so maybe it was just badly written, or maybe Americans do actually talk like that.

Well, they should have put the pic of the male on the left and the female on the right then, just so they're not adding to any possible "confusion".

There's a Lemmy community at !severance@lemmy.world (although I've found that chatting about TV is harder than it looks).

The wrong instance is in that Mention, so maybe there was an auto-complete error.

I go there for the post-episode TV discussions (though I don't log in). It can interesting to read people's theories for something like Severance, although the whole experience can end up being depressing (because of mod shenanigans, the over-use of spoiler syntax, and the dissonance / over-reaction created when some show that the hive-mind has already determined is the best thing ever has a duff episode)

They did yeah, but I think it was by accident than design (they delayed the original launch so they weren't directly up against 2 other big shows, and released all 3 eps at the same time to catch up with the original schedule). I've read that they're releasing 3 every week for Season 2, which should be awesome (hopefully).

According to this site Python is the most popular language (just) for Fediverse platforms.

(I am also typing this from a PieFed instance).
