I was genuinely surprised that Quora was brought up as a Reddit alternative since like you said it was basically AskReddit, NoStupidQuestions, etc 24/7

I know Raddle and Tildes are open source. Not federated though.

 

So obviously a lot of us are partial to kbin/Lemmy but have any of you explored the other alternatives like Raddle, Squabbles.io, and Tildes?

I made an account on Raddle because r/egg_irl and r/ennnnbyyy moved there and I also made one on Squabbles.io because some of the subreddits I joined had an analogous one on Squabbles.io. I haven't use either enough to form a good opinion on them. Raddle seems to be predominantly political, and I'm trying to limit my exposure to politics and prevent doomscrolling.

What are your thoughts on these alternatives?

I can often tell which of my dogs has walked into my room from their pawsteps

That is actually really cool of them!

It just makes me so damn sad that a lot of blind/visually impaired people won't be able to enjoy posts on Reddit anymore...

fucking hell. this sucks so fucking much. i hate these API changes so fucking much and there's nothing i can do about it.

I was super confused by that too.

It's worth noting, however, you're often able to post the link to a post on another Fediverse platform into the search bar of a Mastodon instance and interact with it from there. I was able to do that for a Pixelfed post.
