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 already use mastodon, and built a good follow list with some people and hashtags to follow, and got an app I like with settings the way I want, so I anticipate I’ll move some more of my time to mastodon now that I won’t be spending any time on Reddit. However, as you mentioned mastodon isn’t really a reddit replacement. For that, I’m anticipating Lemmy will fill some of it, and depending on how much it takes off, I’m going to probably get back to using a robust RSS reader as well.
