God what a mess. The only people left employed by Reddit at this rate will be the managers lol.

A 1.75mm spool weighing 1kg is around 330m, so a lot!

It's based on nitro but also how old your account is. I don't have nitro but joined in 2016 and got a message to update mine last week

Check out Hetzner, you can get a very powerful dedicated server for under that budget.

We have m/LiminalSpaces here on kbin! Although not much in it due to the young age.

You have magazines such as m/Musicproduction but currently empty due to the age of the site. I think most niche mags will be like that until we start filling them with content and they get discovered by users.

You can get scripts that will edit all your comments before deleting them.

I think the biggest thing that I didn't really notice at first was just how Reddit 'works'. It was very much 'what you see is what you get' and didn't really take much to figure out how to use it.

With anything new though there's a learning curve and after 24 hours or so on kbin, I'm starting to figure out how this and the wider Fediverse works and it's feeling more and more like home.

Also Reddit is also 18 years old (in a few days) and has 52million+ users so there's obviously more content. As this platform grows it will be easier to get the content you want but at the moment it's going to take some work from the user to search for magazines and contribute.

Just based off this it really does look like they're going all out on forcing people to use the app. If the pricing structure changes wipe out a good portion of the 3rd party apps and you then can't even use a browser, who's really going to download a whole-ass app just to browse a website? Not to mention the data mining the app will be doing on your device.

Bad idea after bad idea from Reddit at the moment and all its going to do is push users to leave which at this point, most are happy to do.

 

Are there any communities you've not yet seen on kbin that you used to visit on Reddit?

Edit: So a lot of people don't know this, you can search for magazines on kbin here - https://kbin.social/magazines

Oh I see, so kbin is an instance in its own right that uses activitypub and that's what links it to other instances that use it too? I think I'll go watch some videos explaining all of this, maybe on PeerTube instead of YouTube ;)
