As of today, PieFed includes a ‘theme engine’ which makes it easier for people with low or no Python skills to change how PieFed looks and behaves.
PieFed is a lemmy/kbin clone written in Python with Flask.
Is it light to host? I am thinking about offering piefed too.
Sorry, didn’t see this question earlier.
It is low on server resources. When subscribed to 700 communities (which causes a lot of incoming traffic), CPU load average is < 1. Uses about 1.5 GB of RAM (including postgresql and redis) and disk usage after 2 months of operation is only 3.5 GB.
Today someone contributed docker configuration and a docker-compose file, which could help with setup. However documentation is limited so it’s not really ready for widespread deployment.
Maybe @[email protected] can chime in here. I don’t host an piefed instance.
I do know that it is in beta and hasn’t addressed its moderation goals yet.
