Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

There's no dedicated app, true. I find adding piefed.ca as an app via Firefox (Fennec) to be good enough, but there's two issues I have right now. One is can't sort by x amount of time for Top posts in the community although according to their repo that's in the next update, just the front page for now. The other is this comment box. For some reason the top bar of useful tools is missing unless I go to edit the same comment after posting it. Weird. Might be a bug.
Haven't tried Interstellar yet personally.
Anyways, hope your post nets you some useful options. Hadn't considered using Wikipedia for that, maybe I can add it to my RSS feeds too somehow.
Maybe I'll consider a PieFed account. I might also consider just using neither, given I don't even get that much out of Lemmy itself. I just browse what's popular in what is probably an attempt to occupy time, which I guess could be better spent elsewhere. What would you say are the main differences between PieFed and Lemmy?
As for Wikipedia, not sure if they have an rss. You could also look into Wikinews, their 'news' sister project under Wikimedia. There's probably more activity there over Wikipedia
