      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

        The hardest part is lacking all the beautiful non tech sections of reddit; i doubt any will make their way here. Hope to be wrong!

            Agreed, we need to help people find their way here. They’re not going to come unless they know where to go.
