I did say as much in my post, it's still an ideologically motivated preset. I'm sure all those sorts would be able to create their echo chamber without it being pre-configured for them. It's hard to have 'good faith' when all the usual suspects plus its developer are posting in the comm alongside the people saying that we're degenerate roaches. That's why it looks like a Nazi bar from where I'm at.

Piefed is still a cool software, and I think having a diversity of threadiverse softwares is a good thing. Stuff like flairs and polls are nice to have.

I don't disagree, they have nice features and I hope that results in those features eventually spilling over to similar improvements in lemmy. If it wasn't for the ideological crusade some people are on I wouldn't care at all.
