Did you leave #Reddit during the #redditMigration? Or are you exploring your options, since Reddit just seems to suck now?
If using #Kbin feels off, you aren't alone. I tried the themes built into it, and the community made styles. I got tired of the bugs I experienced, so I decided to build my own.
Check out my #userstyle for the most popular Kbin instances. As I plan to use this as I continue to use Kbin, I'm pretty sure that I'll keep updating it. Try it out!
Wanted to say a quick welcome to the new Twitter and Reddit refugees out there! Glad to see you folks here! Friendly reminder that the Fediverse isn't advertising-fueled like the other corporate hellscapes we communicate on, and is reliant on the hard work of a volunteer staff. Know things are financially tough, but if you have the extra cash, PLEASE DONATE TO THEM!

Be excellent to each other, and PARTY ON DUDES!

We have made the decision that effective today we will be getting rid of the Kbin instance for #AllThingsTech
We have made this decision for several reasons, 1) Cost is a bit too much at this time, 2) Lack of interest by users 3) Kbin is still in early development and has quite a few issues.
Maybe this will be something we can setup again in the future for everyone.
For people like me who used #Reddit through an app (Apollo in my case) and are looking to replace it with a #Fediverse alternative, things are looking up. Lemmy and Kbin are seeing explosive growth. Although you can follow these from Mastodon, you’ll need to create an account on a Lemmy/Kbin server to get the proper Reddit experience.
I’ve found an app for Lemmy called “Memmy for Lemmy” which is pretty nice. It all works pretty smoothly, recommended.
It wasn't the fact that there was a limit to see 1000 comments but what they were. The vast majority of my 12 years on Reddit I spent talking about dungeon and dragons 5th edition (DnD 5e) which I started playing early in is lifestyle. It was my first role playing game and I got sucked into the Internet to learn more. Before my...
I just want to say for my first post to the #Fediverse that I've already seen more #alttext in the last couple of days than I've literally seen in my entire life. I don't know what it is, but as a blind user it's making me emotional to be able to actually interact with content. Think I'll write an introduction soon. #accessibility#Mastodon#redditMigration
Mastodon instances admins are going through a very challenging time right now.
They have difficult, often heartbreaking, decisions to make 💔
They have a lot of changes to managed :blob_dizzy_face:
They have large influx in traffic to deal with :blobastonished:
And they have to deal with all of our comments and strong opinions about this :oh_no:
Be Kind with instance administrators and moderation teams. Even when you do not agree with their choices. You can state your opinion, but always remain polite and empathetic.
This is volunteer work!
They all deserve our kindness 💚
I moved from #reddit over to #lemmy last week... Much like I said here when I first got this account... it very much feels like the early internet.
Know what else it made me realize?
Redditors are fucking ASSHOLES.
I think I shall stay here and Lemmy, where true conversations can be had as opposed to snarky responses to... literally everything... for no good goddamn reason.
@syncforlemmy post, for anyone who's attempting to patiently wait for the release of a truly solid app for Lemmy. I'm not a writer, so forgive the missed opportunities & novice grammatical errors. #fediverse#redditMigration#syncforlemmy
raddle.me/f/touhou, the only very active link aggregator alternative to r/touhou
Hey you. Yes you, Touhou fan. Tired of r/touhou's too restrictive rules? Want a very active general 2hu forum that's hosted on a #reddit alternative with an explicit strong anti-bigotry stance? Then why not hang out and chill at #Raddle's f/touhou? We've recently reached 100 subscribers and 520 submissions! :D
"How Reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history - The Verge"
Meanwhile #RedditMigration is still happening and there are more groups added to the #Fediverse by the day. #Malaysia even has a #Lemmy instance & members are really happy to be there. i suspect this is repeated everywhere in the Fediverse right now.
Honestly, I suspected they would never change the #Reddit CEO's mind.
But they sure made themselves heard on the way out 😏
For anyone mourning the loss of Apollo, I can't say enough about how great @wefwef feels as a lemmy alternative. Especially as a web application its very well done.

Deleting my Reddit comments was a strange experience.
