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?

    I’m also a bit confused. Personally, I’m using Lemmy because it’s been around for longer. Kbin seems really nice in the UI/UX department, but to be honest I’m not a fan of its tech stack.

    This is the beauty of the fediverse. With open protocols I believe that there’s going to be interoperability between whichever platform you choose.
