Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I’m curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there’s no hate-speech (that I’m aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let’s hear your suggestions! Thank you!

      just in case anyone here is confused … mbin (and its ancestor kbin, which is still running) work just fine with lemmy as they federate with each other. Upshot being that choosing between mbin/kbin and lemmy as an alternative to reddit is not exclusive … choosing one is choosing both … is choosing the fediverse.

        *bin also has an advantage of integrating microblog as well, though you can’t change URLs in link posts

          Yep, completely unique aspect of the platform. Some however do find it too complex or confusing, which I say just reassure anyone that that’s not uncommon if you do.

          Hard to recommend one over the other, especially as I’m not following things closely. mbin is a fork and seems well maintained at the moment while the lead dev and founder of kbin seems to be struggling to keep working on kbin. Things could change though.

            they also overhauled the threads view filtering, though the all content and new comments highlighting features are still missing
