So glad I just switched to Linux.

It’s a performance piece.

Might be a federation issue. Try viewing the URL at the bottom of the post.

Great question. For one thing, it’s built to be a general Piefed video game community. There’s another one on piefed.social but it’s way more meme heavy and into “gamer culture” instead of just video games.

As for why Piefed and not Lemmy, it’s because Piefed communities are portable. That is, if the admin proves to be awful or a server threatens to shut down, you can just move the community elsewhere.

Also, audience. I crosspost from @atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org, an account that has 14.5K followers. So lots of comments come from Mastodon and Akkoma.

Finally, content. Less outrage culture. More games. Many which you’re likely to have never played before.

Okay, but then there’s teddy bears.

Everyone perceives them as cute and cuddly. But I wouldn’t want to cuddle with a bear in real life. Bears are much more dangerous than sharks just on account you’re more likely to encounter one.

I guess what I’m wondering is: why are things clearly predatory not perceived that way?

Aren’t kittens and puppies technically predators? What would be the difference between a baby lion and a baby kitten?

Not an issue with the community itself, I just have a hard time federating to lemm.ee from atomicpoet.org. Whenever I tag !movies@lemm.ee, my reviews don’t reach there. Piefed is much better when it comes to crossposting from Akkoma.
