I think in my (limited) experience so far, kbin has the features/layout I prefer--but there's "nobody" over there. The community I set up over here is slowly gathering followers--the kbin one is not.

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 3 points 2 years ago

I found Tildes appealing and will probably join at some point, especially since the RIF dev is pivoting to making an app for that platform. I like their design philosophy better than the Fediverse, but the Feds are here, now and I already feel hooked in. I can't see abandoning that even after adopting Tildes.

Yeah, aside from the porn. The lemmy porn scene just isn't here yet. Also lemmy nsfw just moved servers to Ukraine where porn is illegal, so who knows?

I joined multiple to have many feeds

[–] Darkwatch00@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah I think I like it here, it's different, but that isnt a bad thing. Also no idea where else to go. All other social media is off putting.

[–] hotwarioinyourarea@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I'm pretty happy here. It's nice and close knit and not full of shit. Kbin also seems cool but needs a bit more time in the oven and an app to really be useful to me.

[–] trouser_mouse@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yes, currently Lemmy is the one. Trust Cafe WTS Social is small but has some interesting aspects.

It will be interesting to see how Lemmy scales and adapts to corporations joining, and also how GDPR compliance unfolds.

[–] rarely@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I use reddit.club

[–] Wayfar3r@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

As of right now, I'm using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it'll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it's quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the "next reddit" or just the transitional phase.

[–] Sinister_Grape@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I’m pretty comfy here.

[–] Borgzilla@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

To be honest, I'm just trying to cut down on social media in general. If I could limit my usage to no more than half an hour a day, I would be set.

[–] 5ilver5urfer@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Yes here to stay now. With Memmy in the iOS App Store. It’s finally an easier transition.

[–] Fartpoopbuttturd@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I think the only thing Lemmy is missing is scale now. Appears there is adequate dev support currently and every day I'm finding another community I followed on reddit popping up here

And I love the idea of not having one controlling entity for the platform to answer to. This is going to create some problems that will have to be addressed eventually but for now I feel like this is us taking back what the internet should be.

[–] MrAstroman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Seems like it is for me, I'm also using snapzu, but I seem to be gravitating towards lemmy more.
