I don’t believe anything will change, but it’s heartening to see it anyway.
-
I've had 3 reddit accounts over the entire lifetime of the website. I love Reddit but I won't stand for their greed. It's unacceptable.
-
I've been using it since like, 2013, feels like an end of an era, this site seems really similar, hopefully it has lasting power
-
Agreed. It's been so long but I think that's exactly why Reddit needs to go under. Like yahoo or any other business that makes mistakes.

I wish an alternative would work out.

.. he posted, on an alternative platform

They did specify “work out”, let’s see how this goes in a few months time.

hardest part is getting used to the differences. But hopefully enough migrate away.
-
This one is already really similar to reddit at least, I long for the bar at the top that shows all the communities I'm subbed too, it's definitely possible the people running this one will make changes too
-
It also desperately needs mobile apps. Using the website on mobile leaves a lot to be desired. That is hopefully coming though
-
Of course the nice thing is that anyone can create a fediverse mobile app without restrictions.
But apparently, there’s a mobile app ‘coming soon’ - see the bottom of https://kbin.pub
