Same for me. I feel like the reason kbin in particular feels so much like coming back to a long lost home is because it appeals to the old guard of reddit, people with 10+ year accounts who really just wanted an aggregated collection of forums for niche interests. Reddit kept getting shittier as that format got diluted and they tried to push it towards being mainstream social media.
Everything was always so confrontational and toxic, you could be saying the sky is blue and some angry green-sky supporter would come out of the Woodworks to yell at you.
I’m happier here. I feel like I’m surrounded by intelligent people again. The reddit userbase had become hot garbage during the past 5 or so years.
