I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    I really like Tildes, except they are hellbent on “not being reddit” and are unwilling to expand beyond the niche communities they have currently established. If you thought getting from a sub on reddit was annoying, on tildes its pretty much a site wide ban because they don’t operate on the principal of smaller communities. They are limiting user migration with their invite system but also the single admin doesn’t want to really budge on expanding what the site is. So reddit wouldn’t be able to migrate directly over.

    I’m hoping a team of redditors work on the next reddit alternative and that is where everyone migrates to. In the mean time i’ll probably have an account on several of these alternatives and see where things are in a few months.
