Piefed is another instance type that is growing in popularity, and a few instances are now turning on the API. As such, apps are also implementing support.

It would be great if Boost would support it too. Hopefully the extra development overhead isn’t too bad.

The API for third-party apps (frontends, bots, etc) is 95% the same as the Lemmy API.

      I’m with ya on that one. I’m curious to try PieFed, but hesitant, because it’d mean installing Interstellar and using that instead of Boost. It’d be nice to have all accounts in Boost, even if it means forgoing some of the exclusive PieFed features to begin with.
