I want to make an alt to post on my expertise, so I want a nice instance to create the new acnt in. Which do you guys recommend? I heard good words about piefed, but not sure I would make the jump, and dont know what the consequences would be.

What could they be? I mean, if you don’t like a specific instance, or if it stops working, you just stop using it and create an account elsewhere (saying that as a piefed user, btw ;)
Yeah, I just made the switch to piefed some days ago. Isn’t there a saying don’t put all your eggs in one basket? My first accounts were on kbin and fmhy.ml, but they’re not around anymore. I made the switch to lemmy.world, then learned about piefed and since I like the features it had I made the switch to it.
I too migrated to piefed
More communities Faster development cycles Implemented in Python so way easier to modify
What features are those?
The ones most important to me are:
tagging features, tagging hotmaps for communities, search by tag, comments from crossposts is combined to the viewer (there’s a divider to show which community),
when someone posts from a certain instance like beehaw you get a reminder about their community standards, user flairs
less resources needed to load stuff (great for third-worlders like me), post and comment subscriptions, feeds (something similar to a multireddit)
topic categories (do note that topic ≠ community) like Regional > Asia > Philippines in which each topic category shows all posts made by communities in the category. For example if you are in Topic: Regional you get posts from all regional communities, in Topic: Asia you get posts from all communities based on Asia.
