Edit regarding the first sentence: on mobile, the link is at the very bottom of a page that replaces the sidebar . That’s how I looked it up yesterday, you can even argue that having the sidebar requiring an extra click on mobile is increasing the chance of mobile users never seeing it, while having it at the bottom of the homepage makes it more visible.

Mbin has been there for much longer than Piefed, but never managed to attract a lot of users. As of now,

• Mbin has 768 monthly active users

• Piefed has 1757 monthly active users

• https://mbin.fediverse.observer/stats

• https://piefed.fediverse.observer/stats

Only based on numbers, more people prefer Piefed rather than Mbin.

One of the main reason is probably Piefed’s development speed compared to both Lemmy and Mbin, and unique features (e.g. comments consolidation, keyword filter, actual instance blocking, etc.)

You seem to have a beef with anything that does not prop up piefed honestly.

And you have a beef against piefed, as shown several times in this thread.
