I haven't used Reddit at all since the blackout began. Even if they change course, the Fediverse is growing on me, and I think I'll stay here.

But I think I'll peek in tomorrow to see what happens.

I kind of like kbin because of the familiar layout, but I just don't really understand how to use lemmy, even with reading the instructions. I expect to probably stay here more and more once the cloudflare debacle gets situated and phase out my reddit usage over time.

I mod on an smaller medium subreddit (100k+) that didn't go private, so I will probably open a magazine here for it, although I am getting tired of modding...it's been almost 4 years modding, 8 years on reddit.

If Lemmy and Kbin could get together and have some kind of combined offspring, that would be good I think. I know they are both a part of the fediverse, but interacting between the two is problematic at best.

Lemmy is still using websocket vs REST API, and is pretty buggy, even on the less populated instances. It has potential and they are making progress though.

We're kind of "here at the beginning" right now, I think it's exciting :) I've been looking into the kbin code for a bit now, may look at Lemmy as well then, as I code websockets professionally. I'm liking this whole fediverse idea.

Kbin federation to Lemmy is off right now because of the Cloudflare thing but it should be temporary
