    Looks like it’s too late to sign up, I just tried and it kept telling me to “verify that [I’m] not a robot” without giving me anything (like a captcha) to do so.

      I signed up, no problem. There is a bit of funky behavior (I clicked on the Pie logo, and it changed to the word, “Logo” haha), but overall it looks sharp. I"m trying to figure out where to make suggestions - I’m a dark screen person, and it’s got way too much white and blue - colors that suppress melatonin production. I’m mighty fond o’ me melatonin.

        I love me some melatonin too, I’m on 5s right now, but I have been up to 20s. Same with the dark mode too.

      PieFed dev here.

      Sorry about that, I’ve had a hard time getting the captcha working while also having decent XSS protection. I’ve deployed a probable fix, please try again.
