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.

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.

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.
