Currently getting familiar with PieFed as my new main platform after using Lemmy for more than 2 years.
I was missing the New Comments filter from Lemmy that shows you posts that had recent comments.
After some digging on Codeberg, I found this issue and found out that the Active sort on PieFed shows you posts with recent comments.
tl;dr New Comments on Lemmy is Active on PieFed
Thank you for this. Maybe Active should be renamed to New Comments to make it more clear.
Thank you for asking this question a year ago :)
I don’t know if it should be renamed. On the one hand it would be easier for people coming from Lemmy, on the other hand PieFed is allowed to be it’s own thing where things are different.
Yes there’s no clear answer
what’s “active” on lemmy, then?
From the Lemmy docs:
Active (default): Calculates a rank based on the score and time of the latest comment, with decay over time
