I’ve used both Lemmy and Kbin. I see advantages to both, but I have been finding that Kbin isn’t as flexible with federated posts and is less flexible with smaller instances: my smaller instance of Kbin is missing a lot of posts and images that show up on kbin.social.

My smaller instance of Lemmy (VLemmy) seems to be pretty complete, so I have been been happy with it.

Also, the constant Kbin warnings about missing info on Federated magazines has really pushed me toward Lemmy.

Depends on how much Meta fucks it up, if at all.

It's good. Apps help alot. Needs to be easier to find shit you like in app. Don't miss reddit. Also Rip Lemmy - 2015. What a great thing to be named after. Cheers

I'm between here and Squabbles, but I am leaning heavily this way, since Wefwef removed some of the annoyances. Sync coming here guaranteed that I would be here eventually.

Here since last night. It's been good, feels like Reddit from ten years ago.

Seems to be, I tried kbin and it's a wasteland, but no biggie because the big communities from there are already here. There's no other alternatives that I'm aware of.

I'm liking it the more I use it and seeing the development of the platform is a nice experience.

Maybe? With revancing the RIF app i can still use my old app. This being said the protests have salted the earth in many placed i subscribed to. In other places there are more bots and spam then before. Lemmy is still a little weird for me. I barely got the hang of the federation in browser, app was too weird for me.

So ill just vagabond around for a while and see what i see.

Nope, for me also, Lemmy works fine!

The sports stuff is pretty empty. Team specific (my teams) are mostly dead still. So I've been on the corresponding SB Nation blogs more than I had for a long time. Otherwise, just here.

Probably going to spin up an open identi.ca instance. It federates well with both lemmy and mastodon and does more. After that I'll probably whip up a script to automatically follow new accounts and communities to get it all federated into my instance.

Literally just signed up. Don't quite get the instances thing I'll read about that tonight but right now I'm on world which I think is the 'big' one?

Either way liking it so far

The user interface in my opinion is pretty bad. It looks like old reddit which wasn't that good. I have to manually expand each post to view it instead of just scrolling through.

Kbin is mostly better. But still a little rough on a few points.

Reddit in desktop mode is better.

Sync in card view mode was the best. Still looking for that experience.

The only “Reddit” feel Lemmy is missing is a mobile app that’s as good as Apollo, which I think will happen soon seeing so many app developments going on

I like the concept of ActivityPub (though Tildes feels cognitively easier to use). But I actually think internet forums are a dying format; I enjoy them but I don’t want to talk with bots, read bots arguing, or post more stuff used to train bots. I miss having little online corners of nerds being nerdy, but I think a lot of it will have to come offline to remain "authentic."

I use reddit.club
