Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?

My current replacements for reddit are:

  1. A kbin account for serious-posting
  2. This Lemmy account for the shitposting (and for communities on lemmy.ml which blanket bans all kbin instances)
  3. Tildes.net for the extra-serious-posting
  4. (Eventually) an RSS reader
  5. Libreddit and a redirector extension for search results

I personally prefer to keep my shitposting from my serious-posting and I also wanted to see what kbin was like, so it kinda worked out well enough (aside from .ml)

Have you been able to consolidate lemmy and kbin into a single reader app? I've read they're compatible but I'm using Connect on android and it's been temperamental

kbin does not have an API yet, and even if it did it probably wouldn't use the Lemmy API.

They're compatible in that a Lemmy instance can federate with a kbin instance. Otherwise they're completely separate stuff

Tildes admins enable bully accounts that bully other users on the platform

  1. I have a kbin account but don't use it yet.

  2. I have this Lemmy account too.

  3. I don't have an invite to Tildes but it seems nice. Everyone I know declined to invite me so far, probably for everyone's own good actually.

  4. I use one. I have always used one actually. It's good to just read and not participate in the cesspool called the comment section. Try it!
