Are topics working?

No. The app was forked from a Lemmy app (Thunder), so there's not much PieFed-specific in it (e.g. there's also no support for Polls). The exception is that it supports post / comment subscribing (I was notified of your comment, even though I'm not the OP of this post).

I created a new instance for testing the app, and I didn't create any Topics (partly laziness, partly because the whole area is being re-evaluated for user-created Topics, aka Feeds).

The app will lag behind the site in features, 'cos adding stuff for direct HTML rendering will always be easier than adding stuff that's got to come through an API.

Really need to give it a go.

I've been meaning to try Piefed for a while (heard some really interesting things about it).

Yeah it works very well. Much better at federation and multi topics than Lemmy. Both are great though and I hope both thrive.
