One of the advantages of being on Kbin is that you can scroll All by New, and see genuinely interesting content
On Reddit, browsing r/All by new would show so much spam, it was really pointless if you just were looking for content. One relied on reddit's algorithm to show you new stuff you hadn't actively searched for. The nice thing about Kbin, and the threadiverse in general, is that you can browse m/All by New as see genuinely interesting posts.
I use this to come across magazines or communities i might not have thought to search for and add those I find interesting. After scrolling a little bit I switch to the subscribed list. This works well for me at the moment.
It’s how I find interesting magazines and Lemmy communities. Browse new for a while with federation on and see what interesting things come past on the stream.
I'm afraid that's just because spammers, trolls and other bad agents haven't discovered this platform yet and/or there's not enough people here for spamming to be worth it. The current selection of users who were likely to join also probably has an effect. Once (if?) this grows and reaches more general population, I'd bet it will look similar to /r/all/new.
Edit: It's a kind of paradox. You want more users on the platform so that there's enough content and more niche communities can form but that inevitably makes the place less pleasant. Although this moment is still very, very far for kbin. I mean Reddit became absolutely humongous in the last several years.
Yea :) like a few times in new i saw stuff that seemed like they miiight be ads in disguise but it seems to happen a lot less than reddit (where new posts couldve been several reposts and bot nonsense.)
Well a lot of stuff posted on here seem tech related (or cat related lol) so i get if youre not into that maybe doesnt seem so interesting. But it can help if you look in magazine for your country/city maybe. Or for your interest. Or even something like cooking or news if you like news?
