The /c/fediverse mod has been maintaining this wiki page with the same info https://piefed.social/community/fediverse/wiki/piefed-app although this post is more visible, so I've stickied it.
- thanks! I was just testing them all out and made the list for myself and thought I would share it, I hadn't seen this other wiki list.
  
  Thank for your post :D
  The wiki is still a new sprout, there is lot room for improvements. :)
  If you want to edit the wiki, ping me :)

  Hold up, piefed has community wiki pages now?
  
  Yep! Community moderators on piefed can maintain a wiki for their community. The 1.2 release that just came out has a couple improvements to the wiki to help with markdown styling to make it more closely match markdown rendering elsewhere on the site.

- oh I didn't see they are supporting piefed now!
  
  I see it in the github issues, added!
  
  They have been for a while now.

I'd also like to propose an alternative, and that's installing Piefed as a PWA by creating a shortcut to your phone's homescreen or installing as an app on desktop, at which point it will run like an app.
It works quiet well and has become my primary way of using it. People tend to sleep on PWAs, but they're great. :D
- This is my primary way of using piefed. There are a number of improvements for mobile-sized screens coming in the 1.2 update.
- That's what I do too. It has all the latest PieFed-specific features and consumes basically no space on my phone.
- Hrm, I wonder if I can do that with Akkoma 🤔

Thanks for including Blorp. Blorp can also be downloaded on:
Google Play
Google Play Open Beta
If you pick either Google Play Beta or TestFlight, you can provide direct feedback to me via our Matrix group (https://matrix.to/#/#blorp:matrix.org). Even if you don't join beta, feel free to join Matrix.
Blorp will support PieFed flairs very soon. You can preview what flairs will look like below:

Thunder I believe won't support PieFed until the next update. The current version that I see in the Play Store was last updated in June 26, 2025 and does not mention PieFed.
You can download a version with that functionality (I've heard, though I do not recall where), but that is not the version 0.73 that is currently in the Play Store.
So you may want to annotate it as coming soon rather than fully here already.
- The beta version on IOS testflight already has piefed support. It doesn’t support all features yet, but general functionality (posting, commenting, etc.) already works.
  
  I am using the beta on android too and its working really well, surprised how much already works perfectly...

At least where I live, Blorp is on the App Store.
- added!
- I think the only country missing is France. But I think I can actually update the app listing to include France.

Everyone knows the best way to view piefed is links2 ;)
Awesome list!
- Can you post a picture of what it looks like in links2

I guess this would be an OK place to ask since I couldn’t find an update anywhere else. Did the creator stop working on the Piefed compatible version of Interstellar? It’s not in the iOS App Store and the Test Flight version no longer works.
- @jwr1@kbin.earth ?
  
  Intestellar is still compatible with PieFed and will have some updates in the next release. The release itself has taken a while, but is planned to be released hopefully next week. The reason the test flight no longer works is that they have a 90-day expiration on each release.

Why the heck do i have to use another service in order to use Piefed? If Piefed wants to be an actual alternative to reddit, it has to stop with this weirdly unintuitive and unnecesarily complex setup.
- It’s just the app…. you need to use an app to interact with almost all services these days. Maybe you are referring to having choice to be unintuitive? Sure it’s more work and you have to think about what fits most your needs but i think it’s a net benefit to be even have to choice.
  
  I don't get why Piefed isn't an app itself? It's like saying you need and app in order to use Instagram? It doesn't make any sense to me at all. If Piefed wants to be an alternative to Instagram, it needs to be an integrated app - not a service that is depending on running on third party software in order to work.
- You don't need to use one of these apps. PieFed is perfectly capable of running in a browser, even a mobile browser. Also, you can install PieFed on your phone as a PWA (progressive web application) so that it can be run on your phone exactly like an app.
  Some people prefer a different interface though, so these other apps provide options for them. Also, some people are making a transition from lemmy and these apps generally also support lemmy, so it makes the transition easier when the interface stays the same through the transition.

Is there any desktop (Linux) client?
