Fully migrated from reddit as of June 16, 2023
Graphic Designer and game dev
I'm beginning to migrate from Windows to Linux, here are some foss apps I use:
Edit, you said "must have" oops, but still like to share this anyways :))
I love how far people are going to screw over reddit, they made their bed, and now they have to sleep in it
This is very true, I've noticed I've had more free time and others have as well since the start of the end for reddit, reddit was extremely addictive and now people either have to find an alternative, which isn't easy if you use reddit for most of your information or entertainment, or stay on the platform where worse mods are replacing the subs' old mods and most the site is dead.
I say give it a few or 2 and it should die down a lot more as people become more comfortable with the alternatives they chose.
I didn't even realize I did that, but I'm keeping it because I like it too
I agree, right after getting used to swapping from reddit to kbin, it felt more like I was part of a community! I like to think reddit was a large city and kbin is a small village that is gradually growing.
I'm really glad I took the opportunity to swap from reddit to kbin, I already feel happier on the site and I haven't even been here for a week. I definitely feel like more people should swap which thankfully most likely will happen as reddit dies down.
This is exactly how I felt on reddit! With Kbin I feel more at "home", with reddit I felt distant, the same with most other social media platforms. I feel like me and others feel less stressed when contributing to a discussion here compared to how I felt on reddit.
I agree, it definitely was uncomfortable moving from reddit at first, but seeing how familiar the site was, and how much nicer the community is, it feels more like an upgrade than just swapping platforms.
Also, I didn't expect the protest would have so much of an impact, but I'm all for it!
