PieFed has added a feature where when people post AI slop that moderators can forcibly apply a label to it. Just like NSFW, it's fine to exist, so long as is labelled properly - so that e.g. you who does not want it can filter it out. Oh, PieFed also distinguishes between NSFW vs. NSFL, allowing separate options for display of each (hide completely, blur thumbnail, show as semi-transparent, or no alternations).
And another feature helps moderators detect whether a picture is AI vs. OC, and whether the content or even the user account itself may be a Chatbot. Again, PieFed welcomes bots... so long as they are properly labelled, with mods having tools to help label them when they refuse to by themselves.
PieFed also offers so many different options in-between content to simply "exist" vs. "not exist". Like one option makes bot posts shown as semi-transparent (or of course you can hide/show them all). Keywords likewise have an additional option besides filter "all" vs. filter "none", with filter "some", in situations where that can be helpful (not political, I get you there!:-P). Not only posts but user accounts can also have a label placed next to their username, so that you can see content but also upon seeing that visual indicator, know that any response you make to them will never be read. You as an end-user can place your own labels, or some label types are automatically placed by the software. You have lots of control to e.g. hide all comment replies exceeding a downvote threshold, or instead of hiding it completely you can auto-collapse it, making you take an extra step to expand it before reading (both of those I have turned off but it's there for you if you want).
Oh, PieFed also has literal hashtags too. Lemmy has fallen far behind what PieFed offers, in most respects.
