I’m checking out Lemmy as a reddit alternative. It’s a little less-refined than Mastodon, but has a lot of promise. Found a few communities I like, but definitely needs more. Gonna start some 😬
Really digging @mlemapp, too!
@mattiem kbin is also an interesting take on it and somewhat compatible, though unfortantely @mlemapp isn’t compatible with it.
Also really makes me wish the Fediverse had SSO. It’s great that I can somewhat interact with Lemmy/Kbin with my Mastodon account, but kinda weird that I can’t fully interact with it.
@nighthawk @mattiem @mlemapp I’d be very interested to hear how it goes for you. I don’t feel like I’ll miss Reddit much if I just give it up, but mastodon has exceeded my expectations so maybe this could too.
FYI, kbin support is a popular request, and we’re considering adding it after the rush dies down!
For those of you on instances that are struggling - try signing up on another one. I’ve written down a few high level points about how federation works on my instance. The idea was to help new joiners, but this seems somewhat relevant here as well.
