Instead of having separate welcoming communities for each type of software, there's an effort to have one general welcoming community for new users.

Link: !newcomers@piefed.zip

It will take some time for the new community to grow. However, since c/NewToPiefed is also fairly small, we figured it would be good to redirect this one now.

So with more mobile apps starting to support PieFed, I thought I might as well take the leap to PieFed. Exporting subscriptions from Lemmy works great, but I have some saved posts that I'd love to move over as well. I like having things centralized. Is there a way? I don't suppose I overlooked an export feature but any tips or tricks to move them over?

I noticed a lot of communities or posts are missing when I view them from my lemmy.ca account vs. the piefed.ca one.

An example would be the technology@piefed.social community.

I can only see around 5 posts from my Piefed.ca account while my Lemmy.ca can see what seems to be all of them.

Hi all,

Just migrated my profile over from lemmy, and the export json appears complete with all my blocked users, communities, and instances - but importing it, even though 'successful', only imports user and community blocks, not instances.

Is that a configuration error somewhere, or a bug in piefed itself?

Hello, I just spent like 5 minutes trying to figure this out and figured this might be a common question, so just posting the answer here for posterity. If PieFed hasn't seen the community before you can add it by navigating to Topics -> All Communities -> Add Remote Community.

It seems like unseen communities don't automatically get added when you try to migrate your user JSON, so be careful to add any remote communities that are missing.
