Piefed has promise, particularly in the way it makes a serious effort to make votes private, but it’s got a ways to go. It’s missing some features Lemmy provides, and better third party app support is needed, too.

My kingdom for another instance with admins like this one.

Not to mention its birth. It’s the best example I can think of for how open source is supposed to work: it started as Emby, the Emby devs tried to close it off for profit, and the community fork became Jellyfin, which I’d argue has more than outgrown Emby.

You barely even hear about it anymore, it’s only ever Plex or Jellyfin.

Teixeira worked for nearly 14 years at Microsoft in areas including developer tools and technologies, before serving as Facebook’s director of program management and design, and Twitter’s vice president of product.

According to the suit, Teixeira joined Mozilla in August 2022 with the understanding that he would ultimately be positioned to succeed Baker as Mozilla CEO.

[…]

Teixeira, 52, was diagnosed in October 2023 with ocular melanoma, a rare but treatable form of cancer. He took an approved 90-day medical leave through early February under the Family Medical Leave Act, the suit says.

Shortly before Teixeira returned, in early February, Baker stepped down as CEO, returning to the role of executive chairman. Chambers, a Mozilla board member, was named to serve as CEO for the remainder of the year.

So he’s basically fine, he just missed his chance to become CEO.
