I’m checking out Lemmy as a reddit alternative. It’s a little less-refined than Mastodon, but has a lot of promise. Found a few communities I like, but definitely needs more. Gonna start some 😬
Really digging @mlemapp, too!
@mattiem kbin is also an interesting take on it and somewhat compatible, though unfortantely @mlemapp isn’t compatible with it.
Also really makes me wish the Fediverse had SSO. It’s great that I can somewhat interact with Lemmy/Kbin with my Mastodon account, but kinda weird that I can’t fully interact with it.
FYI, kbin support is a popular request, and we’re considering adding it after the rush dies down!
@nighthawk @mattiem @mlemapp I’d be very interested to hear how it goes for you. I don’t feel like I’ll miss Reddit much if I just give it up, but mastodon has exceeded my expectations so maybe this could too.
Yeah and they’re already complaining it’s reaching its capacity
For those of you on instances that are struggling - try signing up on another one. I’ve written down a few high level points about how federation works on my instance. The idea was to help new joiners, but this seems somewhat relevant here as well.
