Yeah, PieFed is more geared up for what ActivityPub terms ‘Groups’ (communities on Lemmy, magazines on Mbin, video channels on PeerTube, categories on NodeBB, certain type of blogs on WordPress, a.gup.pe groups, etc.).
Whenever we see someone from a platform like Mastodon, it’s because they’ve interacted with one of the above Group-types. There’s already a bit of inter-op that you don’t find on Lemmy - e.g. you can create a Poll for the people following you as a user, and they can vote on it - but there isn’t the ability to follow them in return, like on Mbin. I believe improvements to things like this are on the 2025 Roadmap.
