Is there any one else who feels like their life has been disrupted by this whole debacle with Reddit. (kbin.social)

I really do like KBin and Lemmy and the fediverse on the whole, but development is still young and the userbase still growing. KBin is still basically early access, and Lemmy is buggy. I spent alot of time in reddit and I'm feeling the pain of trying to ween myself from it. Just wanted to here community perspectives and see how other's are taking it.

For me, I feel a bit of a sore hollow spot for what reddit used to be and watching it implode is not fun for me.

I pretty much only engaged actively with niche videogame subreddits and absolutely zero of them have made the move over to kbin. I don't know if they'll ever pop up here unless there's another general exodus from reddit. Will the starcraft community move over? Barotrauma? Mechabellum? Monster Hunter?

And what about the niche dumb memey communities like DesirePaths, or toolgifs, or StupidDoveNests? Do those even have a chance of cropping up unless the mods over on reddit decide to unilaterally move their communities over?

I genuinely don't think so, so I'm a little lost right now.

Monster Hunter isn't really niche. You're probably gonna see Monster Hunter communities already.

does a quick search

Try !MonsterHunter@readit.buzz or !monsterhunter@lemmy.world.

Kbin's auto-hotlinking is broken until the next release, as I understand it, but here are direct links that will work for kbin.social users like yourself:

https://kbin.social/m/MonsterHunter@readit.buzz

https://kbin.social/m/monsterhunter@lemmy.world

Ditto for Starcraft.

For now, I'd mention stuff without enough people to get a lot of traction on the larger gaming communities, and then bud off as the population increases. Or, y'know, start one and post content each day and wait for people to start straggling in.
