To be clear, “PieFed” is both Lemmy-adjacent software and a P2P network that integrates right in to the FV across all useful measures. Specifically, my community moved from “Lemmy” (our beloved, tragic “Lemm.ee” instance) when it announced that it was going down, and PieFed seemed to be the one and only possibility to both preserve and re-launch our content.
So… yeah, cool!
Only problem? Well, when that happened, we also got instantly disappeared from various lists. For example, believe it or not, we used to be the #2 ranked “GN” (graphic novel) listed upon the Fediverse. And now?

Not even the faintest whiff upon us, anymore.
So yeah… what to do, what to do…?
Would you be interested in making a PR with the change yourself? I haven’t maintained the list in months and it’s severely outdated. I’ve quit lemmy/piefed and I don’t have the energy to update/reorganise it. The bots automatically pick up the communities from this repo: https://github.com/fnic-lemmy/lemmy-directory
Well, thank you for all that you did! (I really, really appreciate that)
Sure, I’m willing to do anything I can to help the FV project. I mean, I’m not very technically-oriented myself, but I do my best to create and maintain fun / interesting projects like EGN, for what that’s worth. For example:
If you have any questions I will answer them but preferably on matrix given I don’t use lemmy/github anymore so there’s a good chance I’ll miss them. @martineski:matrix.org
Alternatively you can join the matrix space for this project following the link on the sidebar. I use matrix daily so I won’t miss anything there. :p
Does your community show up in the PieFed list on Lemmyverse?
Could you link me, please?

Lemmyverse has separate lists for lemmy, mbin, and piefed. You can access them in the top right corner:
