It looks quite neat. I like the emphasis on making things easy for admins and using more tried and true technology compared to Lemmy's bleeding-edge (that sometimes causes issues). Here's hoping it'll be a great alternative to Lemmy.

Where can we read about what they do differently? So far I’ve seen its written in python which is cool since it makes it easier for people to contribute.

Curious to know of they will enable the ability to follow users and subscribe to threads which are two of the biggest missing features on Lemmy in my opinion.

I wonder if they’ll enable parts of the Lemmy api so the Lemmy apps can be used for Piefed

It also makes it slower and easier to introduce bugs.
