Reddit habit is hard to break. (lemmy.ml)
 

I went searching for something today and instinctually clicked on a reddit link. Fortunately the sub was dark for the protest anyway, but it's crazy how ingrained in me it is to go to reddit for everything.

Unfortunately now we're going to have to get used to clicking on those clickbait tech articles like "TOP 10 FACEBOOK ALTERNATIVES 2023" to find information, and weed out the crappy blogs.

This is exactly the analogy I use even trying to explain fediverse to normies.

IDK I just kinda like being on the OG instance/the instance with the devs. Also why I am on mastodon.social.

Basically just ripoff Apollo entirely.

Overwhelmed a bit with fediverse redundancy. (lemmy.ml)
 

I’m a bit confused as to what platform I should look to for my exodus from Reddit. First we have Lemmy which is a direct Reddit alternative. Then we have kbin which is ALSO is own Reddit alternative AND portal to Lemmy/Mastodon. Finally we have Mastodon which is the well established Twitter alternative that doesn’t really portal to Lemmy or Kbin.

I’m ok with Mastodon being it’s own thing, but what about Lemmy and Kbin? Kbin seems more secure and flexible but Lemmy is longer running with apps available on iOS and Android.

Which do you think you’ll be gravitating towards?

do you think the fediverse could replace popular social media in c/[email protected]

You have to remember that the vast majority of people are, for lack of a better word, pretty dumb. You say the word “fediverse” and their eyes cross.
