lol3droflxp, in Kbin Roadmap 2023

Very nice to see that the project is taking off. I’m hoping for this to be my Reddit replacement. However it seems that comments to posts by myself on other federated platforms don’t show up on kbin.social. Is that a known bug?

I agree. How do I help fund their efforts? I want to make this thing buzz, and I have money to invest.

I was very confused by the title before I saw the link 😂

But yes, 100% agree!

@ernest I've been exploring alternatives to Reddit for a week now, and I'm loving Kbin. I miss more presence from the Spanish-speaking community, but there will be time for them to discover the advantages of the Fediverse. Congratulations on the initiative, and long live the project.

There are a few servers on mastodon (choose Spanish as language) and a post on lemmy (not sure if that's a good instance). Currently, I'm learning Spanish, so I follow from a few places and my feed is interesting…. Some English, some Spanish, a bit of German.

@Cocoa6790
Yes, I've been on Mastodon for quite some time now. There's a significant presence of Spanish speakers there (masto.es). But I was looking for content on Lemmy or Kbin. Nevertheless, I have no problem with English. Thank you.

Whats the difference between kbin and lemmy?

Thanks for putting this together. Love the fediverse!

    I guess I'm an odd redditor then because I have a habit of regularly checking out people's post history if I find their posts interesting.

    I (used to) hang out a lot in smaller subs though where you see a lot of the same names.

    Apparently it's just one guy running this site!

    Pablo,

    Damn, that's really impressive.

    It really is. @ernest has done so much by himself in so little time. I'm hoping people who have the know how will step up and contribute code-wise to the project!

    Thanks for the reminder, been meaning to throw some money at him.

    God I really hope many people migrate here. Reddit is full of shit now

    Hovenko,

    Nah... let the shit stay on Reddit and keep this place clean.

    I actually really liked a lot of the reddit communities. Did not find it unclean.

    R51,

    I don't. Maybe that's a bit mean, but many people also actually seem content and supportive of Reddit. If that's their boat, then why jump ship?

    It's kind of amazing how this is playing out exactly like when Musk's Twitter started blocking Mastodon links. Bit of a fragile ego, it seems.

    Someone smarter than me needs to write a book exploring the relationship between having power and having a fragile ego.

    iirc even the graceless musk apologized for that tho? it is very anti competitive

    It’s amazing how much money grabbing is happening right now, but I’m hopeful that it will start a change in the end user that will lead to a better internet. Maybe not now, but someday hopefully!

    I've signed up for both. It took me 2 days of frequent attempts to for my sign up button click to finally go through. It was just getting stuck there with the circle spinning. However, kbin was near instant. I also have greater success when posting to kbin. However, I'm still trying out both.

    Same here. I've tried joining several lemmy instances over the last few days with no success. Kbin worked immediately.

    I don't think Meta is perfect and they get a lot of flak, but having the development support of employees working at Meta behind building the fediverse might benefit us all
