It’s weird because in a way what I’d really want is a launcher like Heroic integrating Steam and GOG.
Gog Galaxy on Linux isn’t probably gonna change this…
Rights now I use Heroic for most of my games (GOG), but since I have a Steam Deck I’m launching the games through Steam.
I feel like everything relies on Valve and it’s willingness to allow other launchers, but what happens if they change their mind.
It would be good if Valve was part of the ecosystem and not the ecosystem.


There was at least another instance which wasn’t in your list which was blocked, but, again, I don’t remember what its weird nane was😅
Since the problem was me not reading their onboarding message, I’m gonna stay on PieFed.social except if there is a weird controversy I don’t know about yet.
I also think I’ll progressively stop using Lemmy.
Jumped on the Fedora ship with 36.
Updating to 43 or 44 broke my install so seized the occasion to try Silverblue instead of Workstation.
It’s even better although the immutable side has its limitation, so I’m happy to have another computer for these.


Well from what I remember, there was lemmy.ml and 3 others that I don’t remember.
Also to be fair, I got a message telling me some instance were blocked when I signed in on PieFed.social, but I never read it😅
So I’m the guilty one!



Only the beta version does for now, but it’s coming.
But in the end the PWA version of PieFed is fine too (Interstellar wasn’t for me at all).


well to be honest, I haven’t done any thorough research on the topic, but I know I haven’t personnaly blocked anyone on PieFed since it was my first day and my first post on it.
For now, especially because I can’t find a mobile app with an UI similar to Voyager, I think I’ll stay on Lemmy unless PieFed makes major progress.
Edit: although I’m now noticing that the Progressive Web App has an UI I appreciate more than Interstellar’s, so I’ll give it a shot😇
Edit2: it turns out that PieFed was already blocking 4 instances without me doing anything, so that’s why some comments were missing.


That’s my first comment since you convinced me to try PieFed.
You said I’d occasionally see something on PieFed and not on Lemmy, but for now it’s quite the other way around. I noticed a crosspost between Peertube@lemmy.ml and Fediverse@lemmy.world isn’t showing at all.
I’m gonna keep comparing Lemmy and PieFed and then choose one at one point.
I guess they’ll soon see that it can be improved and they probably will.
Still, it’ll never be perfect and that’s why a website like SteamDeckHQ is great and should be supported.
