Mastodon and Firefish have been good alternatives for me, not to mention, they’re part of the same fediverse as KBin

Libreddit does work, but not all instances of it do.

beehaw - tight-knit diverse, lgbtq and positivity reddit

Out of the open platforms, I use:
Reddit: Lemmy, Beehaw, Kbin
Twitter: Mastodon, Calckey
Facebook: idk nothing really plus I don’t even use Facebook that much anymore

I may occasionally use proprietary ones like Twitter, Tumblr and Threads.

And I have nowhere to go but Kbin because Beehaw is unstable and I don’t want to open up a fourth account. Accumulating fediverse accounts should be the last thing you do

I think that the moment YT starts actually blocking people who use ad blockers, we need ot start pushing for the adoption of PeerTube the way we did for Lemmy, kbin and Mastodon.

A couple things I would like to see on kbin:

1. Setting to switch the default homepage from “hot” to anything else, or add an option to only see posts from magazines I follow
2. Setting to move the “make a comment” box to a place that’s above the comments

Otherwise, this is pretty much perfect so far.

On the other hand, it makes spammy articles from content farms the primary resource to find answers.
And either way, not everybody is doing this, so Reddit retains part of its usability, which still exists, and some portion of people will still use Reddit after the API changes.

It’s a terrible decision, but I think they just couldn’t keep the servers up for the average user because of the “optimizations”. People look for news on Telegram anyway nowadays.

It feels different to use fediverse-based forum sites, but they’re growing rapidly, and you find new communities/magazines pretty much every day, and even though there’s some fracturing going on (need I remind you of Beehaw defederating from .world).
I like this a lot more than the social media-esque approach of modern Reddit. It has very much become like Twitter, with it’s endless feed of dopamine-inducing algorithms and whatnot. The blackout is a bit annoying, but I agree with the fact people should protest decisions if they ruin things for people.
I’m liking the experience so far.

I was never able to sign up or log into Beehaw. It’s very limited in terms of who it allows to sign up, and the waitlist is probably incredibly long.
This cutoff means that I’ll have to live without being able to participate in a lot of discussions, which defeats the purpose of joining the fediverse entirely.
It’s just as useful to me as using Reddit right now, even less so with how much less popular Lemmy instances are currently.
