I really do like KBin and Lemmy and the fediverse on the whole, but development is still young and the userbase still growing. KBin is still basically early access, and Lemmy is buggy. I spent alot of time in reddit and I’m feeling the pain of trying to ween myself from it. Just wanted to here community perspectives and see how other’s are taking it.
For me, I feel a bit of a sore hollow spot for what reddit used to be and watching it implode is not fun for me.
I mean, it sucks, but to some extent – I had hoped not to this degree – life was going to get worse when Reddit shifted over from growth to monetization.
And I used Reddit when it was far smaller and less-featureful than the Fediverse is today (not to mention with worse uptime…it used to die on a regular basis or start acting weird as the devs worked on scaling it up early-on.). It didn’t have subreddits then, much less all the niche stuff that exists today. Riding another network through growth is okay with me.
