Unfortunately, the time has come for me to leave Lemmy. Time will show where we all end up. I’ll see you in the future… maybe sooner than you think?

Edit: Follow up post is here. Don’t worry. You’re not getting rid of me that easy. I’m just switching to piefed.world

    Is this merely switching from Lemmy to something else, or are you leaving the fediverse completely?

    If it’s the latter, then I wish you the very best of luck. I don’t know you very well, but I remember you having had some personal issues in the past. Hopefully those aren’t coming back and you’ve just decided to simply move on. Regardless, your memes and shitposting will be missed.

    Good luck to you! Or, as a wise man once wrote, “So long, and thanks for all the fish!”

    YouTube keeps showing me offers to give me two months premium for free, but when I click it they offer only one.

    I’m pretty sure this is illegal in the EU but I can’t be bothered so I stick with the ad blocker and reset the cookies every once in a while.

    But will it continue to be your last post in the future? Or is it simply your last post at this moment?

    I thought federated meant people see your posts no matter where you log in. But if going to piefed means you’re “leaving” lemmy, kthxbye I guess. I don’t see the need for an announcement.

      If you’re using a 3rd party client like Boost or Voyager it might not recognize the pifed domain as an activitypub instance… our friendly devs are doing there best

    They only offer Premium LITE now, which feels extremely ironic after rejecting it all these years. It’s like: “So, you declined my offer for years but have you considered… a WORSE OFFER, human?”

    I’d be more than willing to throw them a couple of euros each month. But paying like 14 per month for something I get for free now is just too much.

    Any chance they’ll become fully interoperable? I mean, besides the standard fediverse account stuff. Ideally, being able to scroll my All feed on piefed and seeing Lemmy posts in there. I just don’t want to go back to a ghost town like the Lemmy of 2 years ago.

    Also, thanks for all the posts! You and Picard were the backbone of this place in the bad old days.

    EDIT: I just noticed a piefed post in my feed. The future is now!

    EDIT EDIT: It was a piefed user, I’m dumb.

      They fully work together. You can see piefed posts on lemmy and vice versa! From my understanding anyway. Just go to lemmy.world/c/support@piefed.world or something and you should be able to see posts with no issue.

    Meh, I decided to just pop for Premium. I realized that of the online streaming services, YouTube is the one I use the most. And Premium gives me access to YTMusic as well as GMM which was paywalled back when Premium started. And all for the same basic price as Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu which I barely use and therefore dropped.
