  • Or kbin. But yes either way. I absolutely loved Sync and for me sync was Reddit. Like everyone else in the same 3rd party boat I won't use Reddit without it.

  • I've pretty much only been using Kbin instead of Lemmy and I really haven't run into any problems. The dev just fixed the weird thing where upvotes here did nothing on Lemmy, you had to favorite it instead. But that's gone after users requested it.

    There isn't a native app yet but one is in development (near the bottom). It is a newer platform compared to Lemmy (same as Calckey compared to mastodon) but personally I like the UI better. Plus the native integration to mastodon is nice. I've been using it as a PWA for the time being and haven't had any real issues, but I'm waiting for an app as well 😅

    Being new, I'm on the main instance kbin.social. It's still small and there aren't many instances yet. Hopefully that will change. But nice thing about the fediverse is you can try it out and see what fits for you. Hell, you could join Friendica (FB equivalent) and access this content there if that floats your boat. So give it a try and see what you like!

  • Yeah, that is one thing to consider, but kbin is much newer than Lemmy, so has some things to work out still. But that said I've had no problems with it so far.

    edit Forgot to mention, instances are mentioned on the official website.

  • Where does one find these scripts?

  • @lemmy[@]lemmy[@]lemmy[.]ml

    Incidentally, this is how you'd find and follow it from, say, Mastodon or Calckey.

  • I've been active on Mastodon/Calckey about the same amount of time. I never cared for microblogging sites before, but taking the time to find, follow, comment and make internet "friends" has really made it a pleasant experience.

    Reddit I've been on since before the Digg migration, but was never super active there, more of a lurker. So I'm hoping to do better here as well.

  • I'm currently using Kbin as a mobile website and it's not bad. Definitely waiting for an app though.

  • If you have those three, maybe check out calckey too. Lemmy : Kbin :: Mastodon : Calckey.

  • I think it's exactly that no one wants the headache of moderating that. But I'm certain someone will spin up an instance that allows it as soon as Reddit bans it.
