Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

in different social networks I often see a table of fediverse alternatives to centralized social networks like twitter = mastodon and so on, but I noticed that the alternative to reddit is piefed and not lemmy, can someone explain what kind of fediverse project this is, and is it different from lemmy?๐ค
I appreciate that, thank you.
Everyone should make up their own minds when it comes to picking an instance, but it's important to know who's holding the reins.
No but I mean, I think this is an important conversation to have, which is hard in this intellectual climate, because everyone seems so entrenched and the only ones who don't seem to be are skeptics (although I fucking hate that term because it too has been usurped by self important douchebags who think being a skeptic means being critical of everything that doesn't happen to suit their personal dogma, kind of like how conservatives who can read and write call themselves libertarians- because it's a cooler subclass to belong to that basically believe the same thing but how the fuck did I get caught up in this tangent, anyway), a dying breed.
