Reddit refugee chilling on kbin.

There's multiple things to consider, both are great options, but right now I'm liking kbin more for these reasons:

  • Better algorithm, when I go to my homepage I feel that the site is full of new, active content, where people are having discussions.
  • Integration with Mastodon, I like to take a peek from time to time on the Microblog tab.
  • No feed bug. Lemmy has a problem where it would show every single new post on top of the feed (I know this is being fixed)

Overall both Lemmy and kbin are in their infancy and I expect both to get better to a point where choosing between them won't come down to which one of the two have less bugs, and more focused in the features and appearance you want, this ofc will change with the many apps being developed, since they will be vastly different.
I might end up in Lemmy or I might stay on kbin, it depends which one feels more "active" to me.

Hahaha, every post is either full of deleted comments or just locked, this is by far the most original one so far.

Hi @ernest, do you have any plans to defederate kbin from bot communities? This could explode at any moment spamming every single instance that is not protected: https://kbin.social/m/lemmy@lemmy.ml/t/76632/Almost-90-of-the-accounts-on-lemmy-are-now-bot

Reddit activated a word filter that whenever you say "fuck spez", your comment won't show up for anyone else. I just tested it on ModCoord. they're also deleting spez memes from the subs they nuked lol

r/ModCoord: The admins in charge of demodded subreddits are mass-removing images of Huffman previously shared on them...

Wow, seems like spez is from the same breed as Elon "Thin-skinned" Musk, no surprises there really. I love to imagine how hurt he is because everyone is saying that to him lol.

@ernest I think you might be interested in this: https://kbin.social/m/geddit@geddit.social/t/64769/Call-to-Lemmy-instance-admins
Something is going on on these instances and we might experience massive spam coming from them.

Same, when I posted on reddit I felt rejected, even if what I said was something unimportant, there was always someone who made you feel like you were wrong for just participating, this is much better.

Even tho they didn't move to the fediverse, I'm glad they left reddit.

Totally expected since that post from r/ModCoord mentioned kbin and lemmy

The greedy always forget their riches came from other people.

Devs (like me) can help, the main issue is hosting the bot somewhere and covering the costs, but I think is a good idea.

Ah yes, "please reopen the piracy sub so people can discuss piracy freely 🥺".
My bet is this is an automated message sent to big subreddits.

Hey kbin users if you want to block this domain just go to https://kbin.social/d/exploding-heads.com and block that domain there.

I hope these people stay there, I like the community that moved to Lemmy/kbin as they are friendly and chill.

/kbin contribution and information for instance owners

The search form has been fixed (if you were experiencing this issue). This time, the Docker recreate may take a bit longer. Moving forward, when making changes, I will create pull requests like everyone else and ask for your review. Sorry for the inconvenience. Soon, the first tagged release will also be available. It's time to...

Start with these questions: How are you doing? Are you eating well?

We appreciate the transparency and hope everything can be solved without much friction. Keep it up!

Seems like is federating again? That's really refreshing to see.

Dear pre-migration Keebinetters, how can we NOT ruin kbin for you?

As a former redditor I am glad to have found a new "home" and I hope I'm not intruding. Nevertheless, we are all a huge migration that is bound to change how kbin works and we're bound to piss off some pre-migration Keebinetters. The fact you guys were here before and not in reddit makes evident you don't want this to become a...

AFAIK /kbin is pretty new, even more so than Lemmy, I've been here for some days and the explosion of users is honestly insane, but also pretty exciting to see.
Also the users that have migrated so far have been "high quality" and really friendly, in my opinion users like you, like us, are pretty much the base of what /kbin will be.
We have to keep in mind that this site is not Reddit and probably never will be, but that's what I like the most about it.

Why are you not seeing as many posts from Lemmy communities on Kbin?

Hello! You may have noticed that the majority of posts and threads in your feed on Kbin are from within the platform itself. This is because the admin has activated Cloudflare DDoS protection which basically slows down requests to kbin, to prevent the website from experiencing downtime or becoming slow to respond....

Hi /kbin! I'm currently working on a small browser extension for /kbin users.

This extension helps users subscribed to Lemmy communities by adding an icon before mentions or URLs related to other communities. These mentions can be in the format "!communityname" or through URLs like "https://lemmy.ml/c/memes"....
