Yeah, this describes my experience so far. I really want to like it here, but so far it's been an effort.

I am using Mastadon more, hopefully with time we see a similar level of polish. However, even there it don't see a dent in Twitter.

Kbin is much more polished already. While lemmy is more or less a clone of old reddit, kbin is more like modern reddit just without the suck. Also, both are compatible.

Kbin is much more polished already.

It really isn't. It just has a nicer UI.

Not just the UI.

i think it is really nice that you can use a time filter of 3h, 6h,12h 1d in kbin.
This makes finding new content so much easier without having the raw state of new

The UI is a gigantic improvement, but beyond that it is in a more working state. Also the software isn't made by tankies which is a nice plus

For a server that Ernest put together as a proof of concept, I was surprised at how polished kbin felt when I first joined.

do you know if it's possible to migrate an account from Lemmy to kbin?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sadly you can not. You just make a new account on a kbin instance and move your stuff manually sadly.
