I was made aware of Piefed from recent posts about this and went ahead and made an account in case I want to ditch Lemmy altogether in the future, but I'm familiar with how it works and will keep using it for now.

is piefed not a lemmy instance?

It's a totally different software project. Written in Python as opposed to Rust (programming language used for Lemmy).

But it is also part of the fediverse with ActivityPub compatibility, so you can easily browse and subscribe to Lemmy communities and content from PieFed and vice versa.

https://piefed.social/ is the original PieFed instance.

No, but it federates with Lemmy.
