it seems like mbin isn’t getting any love throughout this process.
People on the Thrediverse never seemed really interested in microblogging
True, though I was on kbin initially and found the microblogging stuff easy enough to just ignore.

Even though I initially started out on kbin when I attempted this on the fediverse (because of its rich feature depth), it was pretty overdesigned in my opinion.

it defeats the entire purpose of Lemmy
Piefed is a separate software, so more aligned with lemmy than a specific instance. Moot point right now, as there’s only a handful of instances.
I think the real answer is less advocating against Piefed (which is getting some preference thanks to QoL additions for community management, I think), but rather advocate for some of the larger communities moving to Piefed to spin up a whole new instance.

This is happening by the way. Many lemmy communities are making their own instances based on Piefed. And the good news about Piefed is that community transferring is built in, so once larger more supported instances move over, it will be viable for any .social community to transfer over.

To some degree, I hope PieFed can at least build in a more automatic way of moving not only the content but also the subscribers like Mastodon does.
But running my own PieFed instance I can say it’s much much easier to run and especially update than Lemmy.

It does, I got 100 subscribers instantly on the communities I moved to Piefed

Only internal instance subscribers I assume, nobody from Lemmy or other PieFed instances. As far as I know ActivityPub doesn’t define how to move something like a community to a different instance.

Rimu told me it would work between Piefed instances

I’m afraid it only works for that one instance:
I am subscribed to:
but not to:
So I have to chase the ones and resubscribe manually.
That’s ok if I know about it, I can just search for all lemm.ee ones I’m subscribed to, go there and find the post which tells me where the community is moving. But sometimes it takes time for the community to decide and I probably will miss it like https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/35941084
Anyway, just so that everybody is aware of that fact and doesn’t miss resubscribing to the new ones.

Ah or perhaps you meant if we move from one piefed instance to another piefed instance that the 3rd instances would be aware of it?

Yes, that was more the idea
