I tried PieFed for ~2 minutes before switching away from it. What didn't work for me was the theme selection. The default dark theme was too dark & high contrast for my taste, and the other themes were just too bright or colourful for my eyes to rest and read easy.
There was one theme I liked but it introduced a spinning element in the top left corner of the page that kept catching my eye.
Is it petty? Yeah. Could I have mitigated it by installing a browser plugin? Probably.
The spinning element has been removed recently, there are some cache issues that might explain why it's still there.
Which instance were you using?
