I typically don’t encounter any communities from instances like lemmygrad here, maybe I will if I actually search for them but as it is on Kbin it’s been pretty nice here.

Oh you mean’t outside Kbin, makes more sense.

Certainly nowhere near the scale of/from reddit.

Yeah it might be an added “Bonus” for people in the long-term besides threads, I think Kbin is certainly starting to cater to the audience that are mainly here for threads but it’s also “nice” to have microblogging to keep in touch with both.

Sorry I did not mean it does not “matter at all”, but I certainly think this is going to be a minority. Although this will be great for Mastodon users, Kbin’s userbase is already small, young, growing but small, and the portion of users using microblogging of that is low.

I don’t think these things matter man, unless they create a community on the threadiverse, most of us on kbin use threads, microbloggig is the minority and full-on microblogging people simply use mastodon.

I am surprised because majority of the discord userbase seems to disagree with you, just check out r/Discord for instance lol.

Actually, I am now one of the few people who got this new new UI by default even after logging in, and man, it’s horrible.

And it’s probably because of this.

Reddit’s long-term downhill has long-started, API changes was part of the beginning and now, it continues. If Reddit goes public, the need to please investors, VCs and so on will make it even less ignorant to what the users wants.

It has never been a better time to switch to Kbin or the fediverse in general.

Thank you! Time consuming and can get tiring sometimes but I am pulling through haha.

I do “K” “Bin”, and then read it together. That’s how I’ve been pronouncing it and imagined others were doing the same?

Mod from m/AskKbin here, really unfortunate to see this mag’s owner/mod go inactive.

Appreciate for mentioning me, ill be more than happy to assist :)

@ernest Should be available for all moderators, owners should atleast have an optional option to enable that.

And what happened to the requesting subs function? When is that coming out?

@OvergrownSkeleton

Or Kbin! Kbin can do both microblogging and link aggregation/discussion. Tbh departing Twitter users coming to Mastodon, and reddit refugees are brought together on Kbin.

The “all-in-one” method acomplished by Kbin is a huge feat, especially when it’s built by a single person from scratch (ie; not based on lemmy codebase wise) and still much more ActivityPub compatible.

Kbin is sadly very underrated imo.
