in different social networks I often see a table of fediverse alternatives to centralized social networks like twitter = mastodon and so on, but I noticed that the alternative to reddit is piefed and not lemmy, can someone explain what kind of fediverse project this is, and is it different from lemmy?๐Ÿค”

Lemmy's devs may be tankies, but doesn't the piefed software come pre-built with instance blocks that can't be modified?

Kinda sounds like the choice between a brand-new Ford Pinto and a Toyota Hilux with 800,000 miles on it

    No. It does come with a default list of blocked instances, but that is fully admin configurable.

    The block/silence list people have been referred to is piefed.social specific, which is often mixed with the software in general because it's the "flagship instance".
