My title might be a bit hyperbolic, but stuff like this worries me. I love to read and I love reading on a kindle. This has been going on for a while, but it has now reached absurd levels.
+1 on the mastodon point. i remember hearing about it all those years ago and being a little skeptical, but then when i finally checked it out last year it was SO good. love that place.
i saw a brilliant toot that perfectly captures how i feel about the fediverse: "I like a small indie coffee shop where the coffee is better and you can always find a seat, and it's not full of crying babies."

SOOOOOO after finally setting up my kbin dev environment I went ahead and wrote some code to add support for EXACTLY this on the official kbin codebase!
Now just need @ernest 's approval and once it's merged you'll be able to do this on kbin without any modifications!!!
edit: clicking on a comment now also hides its content (other than the username), making it even more clear which threads are collapsed! (similar to apollo) – updated the demo gif
The biggest problem with kbin is honestly quite simple, but I don't people is talking about is the fact that finding the magazines that I'm subscribed to is in Settings > Subscribed, on Reddit, it's literally in the top bar, I don't get why it's buried in settings. Another thing is why is my home page full of posts from...
Unfortunately, only after the infrastructure change will I gradually start accepting all traffic from the Fediverse. I'm really working on making it happen as quickly as possible.
The branding for kbin is perfect for capturing the reddit migrators. The biggest friction point for the Fediverse is choosing an instance. If I want to join Lemmy, googling Lemmy takes me to a landing page with no join button, telling me to go to these other sites. Some of these sites even actively discourage signups, creating...
This. Federated services always felt daunting to get into like which instance do I pick? can I see all the content from whichever one? I heard about rogue mods/admins which one is safe? etc. but with kbin it's just: sign up for kbin. There's also fedia which is basically just alt-kbin lol. Very easy.
I have been joking to a couple of friends today who were also redditors that I've been feeling withdrawals from reddit throughout the day. Like I knew I was addicted, I just never thought I was going to have to face the consequences of withdrawals!...
This is the thing for me. I think I'm experiencing a bit of news FOMO. Reddit has been reliable for years at supplying news, cat antics, and pretty girls. I also agree that google+reddit has been really useful in solving very specific problems.
Yes! For me, it was extremely effective at its primary goal of being a content aggregator. I kept up with sooooo much news that was thematicly linked (national news, world news, politics, specific country's news/politics) that I could be the smartest person in most rooms I occupied in irl.
I think though that the corresponding magazines will be the first massly populated here on kbin.
It's tough, I've used it for 12 years and i'm devastated because atm there's no site that can replace the community and the amount of centralized content available.
However, I went through the same journey 12 years ago because of Digg and I hope /u/spez continues to fasttrack reddits death. Making a community of addicts give up something they are addicted to requires a special sort of talent, and the faster spez can apply his abilites, the faster the community can move on to the next platform and build something better.
Right now we are in limbo where the replacements aren't nearly as good, and reddit isn't quite dead yet. This is the worst stage.
PSA: every interaction you make with various posts on kbin is viewable to everyone.

Petition: Defederate from exploding-heads.com (exploding-heads.com)
As far as I see that instance is a far-right cess pool. Everything I’ve got from that instance were low-quality transphobic “news articles”.
Since Kbin is new basically anyone here now would be considered veterans in a few years.
Just something a recently thought of.
Don't you think kbin has really gone downhill since the good old days?
I don't actually think that, but wanted to be the first to complain about it.
Google execs admit users are ‘not quite happy’ with search experience after Reddit blackouts (www.cnbc.com)
Google executives acknowledged this month they need to do a better job surfacing user-generated content after the recent Reddit blackouts.
Putin reported to have left Moscow for Tver. Russian officials have begun leaving the capital. Deputy PM Manturov reported to be in Turkey (fed.celp.de)
Anyone else feels that they're more active on Lemmy than they were on Reddit?
Maybe because we all want this to work out and be a thing.
happy to say I just got banned from the donald community
And it only has four posts lol!...
useful fediverse links, for newcomers & everyone

Collapse comment thread?
Is there any way to collapse comments and their children in the interface? Seems like a fairly basic feature but I can't find it.
I got a lemmy account and a kbin account while deciding what i like best. Since I'm new to this i'm having trouble searching and "subscribing" lemmy communities while on kbin and viceversa. Can someone please help me with this issue?
Second time doing this because I made a "post" the first time, I feel kinda lost to be honest.

Working Together to Improve /Kbin's Ease of Use for New Users
Dear not-so-techy KBeans ;)...
How the /m/ appears from Lemmy. All posts are not being federated?
Any good mobile apps to access kbin?
Obviously this migration is all about 3rd party apps. Do any even exist yet for kbin?
