Try https://b.piefed.social/ instead! Log in with the same username and password as piefed.social.
It works best on a phone / tablet but on a desktop it’s fine too once you switch to compact mode.
It can be installed as a PWA.
There are also lots of themes you can try at https://piefed.social/user/settings. Here are some screenshots of them - https://join.piefed.social/screenshots/
Thank you for sharing my PieFed/Lemmy UI! Btw, if you’re in the progress of migrating from Lemmy to PieFed, you can login to both Lemmy and PieFed simultaneously via blorpblorp.xyz. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with bug reports or feature requests. The best way to report those is GitHub, but I also read PieFed/Lemmy comments.
Thank you for your continuous work on Blorpblorp!
Probably should include the name of the software you’re using and credit the dev:
Blorp by @[email protected]
That would be a nice gesture and I think I’ll do that in future, if I have the spoons.
@[email protected] have you considered adding “Powered by Blorp” with a link to your site at the bottom of the left column? That way every copy of the software has your stamp on it and SEOs you.
Thought about it. Blorp is a client side rendered app. It makes it really easy to host since it’s just a collection of static html, JS, and CSS files, but not the best for SEO. From what I can tell, Google’s crawler can run JS but I don’t think Bing (which I think DuckDuckGo is based on?) can.
It’s pretty difficult trying to share 99% code between web and “native” iOS/Android apps. I decided early on that SEO would add one too many constraints with not enough benefit. But SEO aside, I think linking back to the software somewhere in the UI would be nice so users can learn more about the app they’re using.
Edit: the blorpblorp dev literally thanked the OP in this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/21972414
The terms of use and privacy policy both acknowledge the name of the software
Great, I’m sure everyone who comes here will click through and read those.
E: the dev literally wouldn’t even be here if I hadn’t tagged them, because they were not mentioned anywhere, nor was the name or source of the software they created.
Photon doesn’t add the app name or developer credits anywhere either, at least on mobile: https://photon.piefed.zip/
I don’t plan on adding credits, but if I did it would definitely be video game style auto scroll just for the lols
Something like
- CTO: @[email protected]
- Graphic designer: @[email protected]
- Product manager: @[email protected]
- Quality assurance: @[email protected]
- Lead frontend developer: @[email protected]
- Head of marketing: @[email protected]
Would be fun ha ha
Photon did not share this post.
Nor did Blorp. Photon is the alternative front-ends, similar to Blorp.
Piefed.zip and Piefed.social are the instances adding those front-ends.
Nor did Blorp
Yes, so they’re also not the ones responsible for attribution, thanks.
I don’t understand why you’re arguing with me about something as simple as providing attribution.
The blorpblorp dev literally thanked the OP in this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/21972414
He doesn’t really seem impacted negatively by the lack of attribution, which is further evidenced by the lack of attribution in Blorpblorp itself, the same way Photon doesn’t have it either.
Some people just want to create apps for the sake of it, without having people using their apps being pointed out that they don’t give credits to them.
Much better, thanks
I like the logo with pixelated font.
Looks awesome!
Another web alternative is https://phtn.app/.
This is nice
I like the default theme. I just want to change the accent color.
I’m sure this can be done with custom CSS in the user settings!
I don’t really know how, but if nobody magically spawns with a solution in this thread you could consider asking in [email protected] :)
thanks. i’m gonna look into that
The Amethyst theme in your user settings is mostly a recolored version of the default theme that is pretty popular. You could give that a shot. The HPT themes are a bit more of a departure, but they have lots of fans out there as well.
The colors are all overwrite-able via custom css in your settings if one of those options doesn’t work. Which elements are you looking to recolor? We use Bootstrap css for the web ui, so you would just need to overwrite the default colors that Bootstrap uses.
high contrast theme is the best one imo
Very good
I really like it, much better than the default.
After using it the whole day now I don’t like that you can’t turn off infinite scroll.
needs more random spez quotes in between comments ;)
Wow, looks nice!
Is it missing the feature to enable/disable notifications on communities/threads or did I just miss it?That link should be “x.piefed.social”. ;)
EDIT
I’m confused about the Themes bit - did you mean that as in “there are other themes than the default one for regular PieFed, and that’s information that’s unrelated to b.piefed.social”?
FAKE-EDIT

The themes are indeed for the default Piefed UI
I love Blorp and it’s my default interface/Piefed app on mobile. It looks very polished and thought out.
That said, I am not happy with typography that modifies contrast for emphasis. It works alright in dim conditions and / or dark mode, but in bright environments the low contrast portions of text become completely invisible, not just unreadable. That’s not Blorp in particular, it seems to be a design trend ATM.
