What's Reddit? /jk but Kbin is so nice. I am actually having conversations with people instead of just post that seem to exist in a weird void.

[–] ShellSurf@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'm not quite having conversations, but I'm posting comments on the internet for the first time in years.

I really like the UI kbin has. Don't have to worry about old.reddit being removed one day either.

[–] kestrel7@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Right? I liked reddit, but old.reddit was imperfect at best, and needed RES. New reddit was always an unusable hot mess. Kbin is like three weeks old and it's already better than both ever were.

Hi. Welcome to kbin. There is a bit of a learning curve. There is a bit of jank, but to be honest? You made the right call.

What's the best way to get rid of a body... theoretically?

Didn't work out for Robert Pickton, still got caught.

I give no guarantees about your ability to dodge the law.

Apparently they go through bone like buttah!

Be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm!

[–] aeternum@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I moved over a little more than a week ago and honestly the improvements here have already come a long way. I am really enjoying it and have zero issue fully replacing Reddit with the Fediverse.

* Waves vigorously *

Try not to get overwhelmed by things here. There's an added layer of complexity that exists, due to the space being made up of a whole bunch of different websites, but you'll grok it in time if you just absorb things slowly.

Things are still new around here. kbin itself is still in early beta. There are kinks to work out. But everything's in active development, and things will get polished :)

Hell yeah! Welcome aboard!

[–] SuaveBet@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

For me, Lemmy is the girl in blue. But I prefer browsing Lemmy communities through kbin. So I'm still loyal.

Who's downvoting this lol

Like it's getting hard ratio'd because it's a good meme, but I'm curious as to why 13 people (so far?) are upset about it.

[–] loehwe@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[–] gk99@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Imagine complaining about which interface people choose to interact with the same content pool with. That's like the main reason the fediverse has exploded in popularity over these last few weeks. Sheesh.

[–] Kurumatron@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm a Lemmy user and I'm okay with Kbin getting the majority of users, as long as we're able to federate with each other it doesn't really matter where the new people go

[–] Anonymous0573@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I think that's just the internet. I think some people just go through their feed downvoting everything.

[–] Ado@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Pixlbabble@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lemmies upvoting Kbinauts.

[–] ludeth@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Excellent use of these meme. That is all.

[–] sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I just checked it out. It's awesome. It has reddit and twitter all packaged together.
