Every time I go to the piefed frontpage I'm blown away by how much more polished it is. It has all the bells and whistles that lemmy is sometimes missing.

Whats the catch? Why aren't we recommending everyone goes to piefed instead of lemmy?

App support is one thing I can think of.

True, MBin is small so I'm not surprised they cater to the bigger platform.

You may not be from the US, but in the US smartphone market, as of late 2024, iOS (Apple) holds a larger market share than Android, with iOS at around 58% and Android at 42%.

The US isn't the only country, and I bet people using the fediverse skew heavily toward android in the US anyway.

I wasn’t trying to be derogatory, I know that outside the US Android is the dominant platform, but in the US it’s iOS. (I actually thought the percentage of iOS users would have been a little higher.)

That’s an interesting assumption that the Fediverse skews Android, I’d like to see some numbers on that.
