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 made another comment in this thread. I find that it is more similar to Mbin (the successor to Kbin), but it’s somewhat more popular right now.

    There is a comparison of the features here: https://lemmy.ca/post/45413094/16944475
