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?🤔

Absolutely agree that people will always try to game a system that can be gamed.

I would agree with real user registration if it didn't open the ID Verification can of worms. Right now there is no way to make a KYC system airtight, and the risk outweighs the benefit, in my opinion. One user per account (if one could easily switch instances) would make for a healthier social ecosystem, though.

    I don’t know about you but I didn’t have to present any form of identification for registering here.

    You mentioned real user registrations, which I thought was a hypothetical control you were suggesting. Appologies if I misunderstood, I was explaining my thoughts on it.
