What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy?

Every time I go to the piefed frontpage I'm blown away by how much more polished it is. It has all the bells and whistles that lemmy is sometimes missing.

Whats the catch? Why aren't we recommending everyone goes to piefed instead of lemmy?

App support is one thing I can think of.

Is there even a second instance running piefed? I've only seen piefed.social
- https://piefed.fediverse.observer/list
  
  Is there a way to see version number? Everything else seems way slower than the flagship instance and even that seems slower than every Lemmy instance
  
  Seems they're all running the same version, or Piefed doesn't tag releases:
  
  piefed.social nodeinfo
  
  curl -s https://piefed.social/nodeinfo/2.0 | jq { "openRegistrations": true, "protocols": [ "activitypub" ], "software": { "name": "PieFed", "version": "0.1" }, "usage": { "localComments": 12382, "localPosts": 1169, "users": { "activeHalfyear": 561, "activeMonth": 309, "total": 800 } }, "version": "2.0" }
  
  feddit.online nodeinfo
  
  curl -s https://feddit.online/nodeinfo/2.0 | jq { "openRegistrations": true, "protocols": [ "activitypub" ], "software": { "name": "PieFed", "version": "0.1" }, "usage": { "localComments": 503, "localPosts": 214, "users": { "activeHalfyear": 85, "activeMonth": 34, "total": 85 } }, "version": "2.0" }
  
  There are no tags as of now. Everyone is running the main branch from Git. I suppose that's going to change at some point when PieFed deems itself ready.
  
  You guys are a lot braver than me lol, I'd never run the Lemmy main branch in prod.
  
  Running a main branch in production is beyond insanity.
  
  Welcome to the jungle
  
  Yeah, we don't have versioning yet because there are so few instances and it's a rolling release so to say. So most people update just every now and then. Most of the admins are in a matrix chanel together also.
- There's feddit.online and some personal ones I've seen knocking about.
  
  Thanks
- feddit.online, iirc. check join.piefed.social
- I've been running my one person instance for 8 month or something ;)
