When the whole Reddit fiasco started happening, I saw a lot of people wiping and deleting their Reddit accounts and moving elsewhere, like here on Lemmy.
Now that it’s starting to die down a little bit, does anyone regret doing that? Or are you glad that you took that step?
What is kbin and tildes?
Always weird to read comments like this while on Kbin. Kbin is another “threadiverse” instance. Like Lemmy or whatever.
Yeah, it becomes so second nature that I’m on kbin that it’s a weird kind of dissonance, like someone asking what’s Reddit on Reddit.
Kbin is a different software than Lemmy, although similar.
It has only been around a few months (unlike lemmy that has years in development).
It offers what seems to me a more centralized view of the fediverse, with federation to lemmy servers and mastodon servers as well.
It has access to the microblogging feature, that is like sending a toot from mastodon.
I’ve found it to be a more familiar experience to Reddit, and honestly, I prefer it over lemmy.
Due to it being so new, it has many missing features lemmy might have, like mobile apps (the API is still not public, and it’s being worked on).
HOWEVER, Kbin has a great community backing it up.
I’m currently posting this from the amazing Artemis beta app for Kbin, the first of its kind.
This is due to the incredible job @Hariette has done!!
Kbin is a part of the Fediverse and is similar to Lemmy. I have a kbin.social account and am replying to you from kbin. (I subscribe to a lot of Lemmy communities via kbin).
Tildes is not a part of the Fediverse. It is a text-driven private forum basically created and run by one person. You need an invite from a Tildes account holder to join. It’s its own little island. am on Tildes a lot and really like it.
