I’m currently struggling to find my home. I have an account here at lemmy.ml, where most of my posts are, and one at kbin.

Why do you think your instance is the place to be?

    As it’s open source I wouldn’t look down on people using Lemmy, but if you are going to use it I’d recommend staying away from the main server/lemmy.ml.

    I chose Kbin myself because it’s way more like old reddit and I wasn’t jazzed with the devs of Lemmy.

      Yeah, I think I’m going to switch over to kbin full time. It’ll suck not having an app, but the mobile web UI isn’t too bad.

        Yeh, it has a PWA (progressive web app) that you can “install” from your mobile browsers. It works fine for now.

        PWA is pretty okay but I am sure we will get awesome native apps in the future. I hope devs of Apollo, Sync and others will join kbin as it would be mutually beneficial as I am sure people would gladly pay for their awesome apps and at the same time it would attract more users ti kbin.

        1. Get Firefox Nightly.
        2. Create a custom addon/extensions collection on Mozilla with Tamper Monkey, Stylus and whatever else you’d like.
        3. Enable developer mode on Firefox and add your custom addon collection and inatall them.
        4. Go to /m/kbinStyles and install the various userstyles and userscripts.
        5. And finally, install the PWA.

        That way you’ll have a much better experience with kbin on mobile. It doesn’t even show the browser frame. It’s like a native app.
