That does help very much, thank you!

1·5 days agoCiv 3 was the first one I played so it sticks in my mind the most, that’s all. Any of the Civs would be fine.
I do feel like Civ 3 was a big step up in visual effects, though.
To get the obvious out of the way: Pacman, Doom 2, Starcraft, Simcity 2000, Civ 3. All genre-defining milestones.
Total Annihilation. They’re still making sequels today (Supreme Commander, Beyond all Reason).
Warzone 2100 was the first 3D rotatable zoomable RTS which was pretty mind blowing at the time.

piefed.social now has a Zulip server too although the Matrix rooms are still open. Seems like the tide is going out on Matrix though.
Also Terrorgram.
If that’s been their goal for decades then there would be something written down to that effect. Policy statements, press releases, meeting minutes… Got anything?
Some admins really love watching who votes for what and banning people based on that.
You can disagree with that if you like but if it means they get pissed enough to defederate your whole instance, you lose.
If your instance is just you and a handful of others, no one will notice or care. But once you have 1000 users the amount of anonymous votes will be noticed and there will be consequences. Maybe not defederation but everyone banned for upvoting bigoted content or vote manipulation will migrate to your instance and you’ll be hosting the biggest shitbirds around.
I don’t see a solution to this. As long as admins snoop on people’s votes that will be the dynamic and PieFed puts itself at a disadvantage by doing anything different.

This only effects about 3.5% of accounts.
The -10 can be changed in your settings. Set it to -1000 to show everything :)
That’s how it used to work but I got rid of it because there were too many unintended side-effects. Now a private vote is just one that is not federated.
Private votes are just normal votes except without the federation. So their effect is only felt on the local instance.
I wrote that code. It can be turned off or on by the instance admin. When an instance is created It’s off by default.
Originally, when I wrote the feature comparison page, it could not be turned off.
1·9 days agoPieFed will have this in version 1.2
Because I haven’t updated that page in about a year.
There’s been soooo many new features since then but I have a hard time knowing what people new to PieFed really need to know about…
It’s on the 3 dot menu on every post.
Makes sense to have it on the community too, tho. I’ll find a place for it.
On the face of it, I agree. But 12 jurors who heard the whole story, probably for days or weeks, disagree with that.
