Everyone is welcome. Basically the instance allows all spectrum, as long as you behave and treat people with respect. Local communities allowed must be at least retro adjacent. Meaning it has to be old shit somehow, whether in spirit or physically.

For example. On retrolemmy we have communities for pixel art and adventure/point n click games. Both are being made today, but in spirit live in the days before.

 

After hosting RetroLemmy.com for close to 3 years, we are proud to announce we now have also opened up a PieFed instance called Retrofed.

This is not meant to replace RetroLemmy, but instead give retro-minded people a choice.

Also, Retrofed is available and fully functional on http as well as https. Meaning old hardware should be able to connect and interact with retrofed if people so wish.

Your home away from modern life.

Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

Just build your own with a kit. Hell, call it a CNC filler. This was a DIY hobby from the start. I don't see how this can be regulated.

Writing by hand is a good way to get fine eye hand coordination. I think, at least for younger kids, writing should be primary during development. Around 12 years of age it could be phased towards computers instead.

Will do! Thanks!

I had no idea piefed would automatically post it here. That's pretty cool!

I'm just testing the piefed instance right now, as a piefed alternative to retrolemmy. And in the coming days fully set it up for the public
