Piefed now generates human-readable post URLs instead of those random ID strings. This issue has been around on Lemmy for ages with no real progress from core devs. At this point, you have to wonder what the Lemmy dev team is focusing on.

Nobody really sees URLs anymore, they are always behind links, so making them more readable has basically no effect.

I prefer them if that means anything. I prefer them readable that is.
