EDIT: GO DM MODS OF YOUR FAVORITE SUBREDDITS AND POLITELY ASK ABOUT MIGRATION!: something as simple as "Hey, I love this community but I no longer use reddit, will you guys be making a community on Kbin or other alternatives? Let me know please, thanks." will work!! We need more voices encouraging migration!...

You go and browse the instance you want first. You don't have to create an account there, you can view everything, just can't post of comment without an account obviously.

OC How did you end up finding kbin? Did you migrate here from Reddit?
