Been a RiF user for 12 years. Never thought I’d see the day I’d purge my reddit account and not look back. But here we are! Glad to be here with you all, here’s to our new communities.
Fuck spez, amen. I’m actually really impressed by how good Lemmy is working given that it is still a newer platform. Big fan of FOSS, so that’s a huge plus for me as well!
I will be donating to third-party apps and instances to help support this lovely thing we have going on here.
I’ve read it’s a work in progress and may be changed at some point to be consistent across the Fediverse. Poor guy is slammed with feature requests and bug reports with Kbin.
From what I can see the upvote / downvote both work as you'd expect now (as in upvoting curates content). There was apparently a period of time where 'boost' was the upvote mechanic but that's been changed
Yeah a few friends have spread out, reach looking into new replacements. Kbin got my attention since it's open source and PHP based, so it's something I can jump right into and fix up issues. Lots of people working on fixing up several parts of the site to make it even better
There's definitely room for improvement, but I like what I see so far and don't have a problem learning a new paradigm. I'm sure that as the platform matures things will become more consistent.
Fuck Reddit u̶p̶v̶o̶t̶e̶ boost party! (kbin.social)
The apps have all gone offline, welcome aboard to all the other refugees, fuck /u/spez!
