THIS is the Power of the Fediverse!
Today I interviewed Rimu from PieFed Social. It's a Python powered Forum software built on the Fediverse. It's akin to Lemmy, MBin, Reddit, etc.
It looks like a super nice tech stack, the website loads fast, it connects to everything else. I was sold on PieFed when a community member asked if I could interview Rimu.
After talking with him I knew I was going to make an account. Before I got around to it though I posted the Fireside Fedi episode to my Peertube.
Rimu pinged me because it was set to private, which I quickly realized was my own doing and I fixed it. As soon as I did he let me know that PieFed can natively sync Peertube:

THAT IS THE FEDIVERSE! Pick your software stack and sync anywhere. The power houses of the Fediverse are great, but they're kind of siloing themselves. THIS is what the Fediverse was all about.
You can watch the video from PieFed. You can comment, you can like, you can subscribe to the Forum. It all syncs with my Peertube. THAT is what this is all about! THAT is something big tech can never and will never do.
MORE of this PLEASE! :-D
Thank you again Rimu for joining me, spending your time and energy on FOSS and the Fediverse, and showing me how the Fediverse ideas are still growing and we're still in it's infancy.
