As a naturally private person, I’ll always limit the leakage of personal details, but I will say that I’ve always been an early adopter of tech, and that I’m quite excited about the prospect of replacing Spezzit with a federated alternative that we all fully control together.

Fuck power, fuck growth, fuck profit. We can all do better than that if we chose to make it so. Humanity made the present. We fucked it, and only we can unfuck it. No political or economic system is forever.

Ummmm got off on a rant there. Whatever. Seems like an honest way to intro myself. Greetings all.

What's up, I'm Mars

Came here because of...well, Reddit like everyone else. Too much drama going on over there lol, so I'm here looking for a more relaxed online environment. I have a lot of hobbies, but a few are skateboarding, guitar, reading, tech, hip-hop music, cars, language learning, and astronomy. Not completely new to the Fediverse as I've had a Mastodon account for a couple months now (though I'm not very active there). Found kbin and thought it looked cool, so I went ahead and made an account.

Looking forward to having a great time with you all.

I’m a Redditor searching for new grounds, my online alias almost anywhere is lilfruini.

I’ve kind of been drifting around these past few days. I’m getting better, but I’ve been dealing with thoughts for the past couple of days that I’m not sure how to handle, and I screwed up so so bad…

Life is going on around me. I like playing Switch and 3DS games, video editing essays or meme stuff, going away from home to classes, and talking with a lot of thoughts, for better or for worse.

I look forward to meeting you all.

Hello everyone! I'm Osvaldo and I like sports, reading and specially drawing. I've got invited to fediverse by my friend, and since the other social medias became super complicated to comunicate and make more friends (and ofc get more people looking at my arts), it became interesting to me to try here.

In case you want to see my arts and all you can check my links in here: https://linktr.ee/osvaldoilustrador

Although I am posting here, in Pixelfed and in Mastodon.Art. As of rn I'm liking here a lot, I see big potential for real.

Hey, y'all! I'm evergreen. 26 years old, transfem (she/her), reddit migrant, autism haver (and ADHD haver, among other things.) I like to hang out on 196, and my current hyperfixation is Zelda (particularly Tears of the Kingdom.) I moderate two magazines by default (since I created them:) Deltarune and Zelink.

Caph,

Hi,

I’m trying to decide if kbin or lemmy is the place to be. I really like the beehaw community over there but I’m a bit put off due to the whole stuff surrounding the devs behind the lemmy code base.

Just trying to my find my way around the kbin interface and make sure I’m subscribed to a bunch of “magazines” - will try to be active here as well as beehaw (lemmy) so I can give both systems a proper shake down.

About me: I live in the UK, enjoy nerdy things like SciFi, D&D and tinkering with tech etc but don’t get much time to engage in hobbies as I’m a parent to a demanding toddler (well.. nearly not a toddler now I guess. Little kid)

Reddit refugee. I wasn't happy with their treatment of the Apollo dev. Interested in acoustic and electric guitar, linux (Qtile on Arch), and psychology. Glad to be here.

I am Kingdogethe42nd, Reddit refugee (using it since 2016). I think I am starting to grasp the whole fediverse now, but I think I’m still not entirely there yet

Welcome to kbin! I think I have kbin mostly figured out, but I'm still learning new stuff daily. If you have any questions I will try my best to help out.

calmblue75,

Hi everyone! I am a reddit refugee too, supporting the API change protest with all my heart. It's nice to see a new platform developing!

Hey everyone! I’m a Reddit refugee as well. I joined Reddit just after Digg collapsed and I left because I’m upset with how they’re treating the third party app devs (I used Apollo) and I really disliked the direction they were moving towards pushing advertising on its users.

I’m only now learning about the Fediverse and it’s been a neat experience! I’m excited to see how this site evolves and am really hoping that kbin, Lemmy, etc. continue to grow past the blackout!

My interests include reading, swimming, playing the piano, and watching baseball :)

Hey I’m Stoat, I was a lurker on the league forums for several years and I’m hoping to be a bit more active on these random topic posts. Video games and hiking are my primary hobbies.

Hi! I was never a Reddit user, but heard about this place after Reddit blew up a few days ago and got interested in checking it out.

I'm in Colorado, an electrical engineer but working an IT job. Ham radio operator. Electronics tinkerer. I enjoy reading and watching sci-fi. And, believe it or not, I collect engineering and math textbooks.

Hello, I'm Guy, a recent Reddit refugee. I spent my first little while lurking around, but this seems like a really nice community.
I see a lot of Apollo refugees around here, anybody from Infinity?

Welcome Guy! Glad you decided to make an account here and joined us. I haven't used Infinity before, ended up using Sync for Reddit (on Android) for many years, but like the rest of them it's on the way out as well.

Yeah, we're all on the same ship. The first casualties of Reddit's enshitification.

I'd recommend trying it out, but with everything being on its way out, there's no point now haha
