Why did you choose your instance?
I'm currently struggling to find my home. I have an account here at lemmy.ml, where most of my posts are, and one at kbin.
Why do you think your instance is the place to be?
You're viewing a single thread.
I used Lemmy for a while but now I am planning to exclusively use kbin. It appears to be a way more mature project and is infinitely better UI/UX wise than Lemmy. Moreover it's a project maintained by a fellow Polander and not a bunch of tankies.
The last point you mentioned is one of my biggest concerns.
As it's open source I wouldn't look down on people using Lemmy, but if you are going to use it I'd recommend staying away from the main server/lemmy.ml.
I chose Kbin myself because it's way more like old reddit and I wasn't jazzed with the devs of Lemmy.
Yeah, I think I'm going to switch over to kbin full time. It'll suck not having an app, but the mobile web UI isn't too bad.
PWA is pretty okay but I am sure we will get awesome native apps in the future. I hope devs of Apollo, Sync and others will join kbin as it would be mutually beneficial as I am sure people would gladly pay for their awesome apps and at the same time it would attract more users ti kbin.
Yeh, it has a PWA (progressive web app) that you can "install" from your mobile browsers. It works fine for now.
- Get Firefox Nightly.
- Create a custom addon/extensions collection on Mozilla with Tamper Monkey, Stylus and whatever else you'd like.
- Enable developer mode on Firefox and add your custom addon collection and inatall them.
- Go to /m/kbinStyles and install the various userstyles and userscripts.
- And finally, install the PWA.
That way you'll have a much better experience with kbin on mobile. It doesn't even show the browser frame. It's like a native app.
This. Basically googled what the difference was and the article I found said the lemmy creator simps for the USSR. And I have about as much as interest in a platform like that as I have into on created by Nazis.
