(Reminder: if you have shared the original version in a public post with an old version up, replacing it with this one might be more helpful.)
I want to preface, if you see a mistake in the image or have something helpful to add, go right ahead! I still have the layered files for this, so edits can be made very quickly. I chose to handwrite the text to avoid font copyright infringement.
Feel free to share this poster as you wish, especially on Reddit. All I ask is that you respect the license and don’t remove my socials at the bottom. If anyone’s addition is included, I’ll credit them, and if this gets added onto (or translated) by someone else later, they can add their info as well.
I hope someone can find it useful with the subreddit blackouts right around the corner.
I want to thank the Beehaw admins so much for their amazing work!
(Poster edited; I spotted a duplicated word, mrmanager@lemmy.today noted the lack of whitespace; current version is slightly larger and has been spaced out. You can still request the 800x2000 size, but know it is a little squished.)
(Edit 2: Removed defederation part as it’s not really required. The email analogy blackcoffee@beehaw.org suggested has been added, thanks!)
(Edit 3: Here’s another version making the interconnectivity a bit clearer and mentioning some cool-looking reader apps that have been suggested! Also made the image slightly longer for ease of viewing. I might do some small cosmetic changes tomorrow)
(I’ll put out Edit 4 tomorrow, which will include the date the edit was made, will clarify mlem only being available through TestFlight, will mention other Kbin instances, as well as a reminder to confirm emails with any new signup in a timely fashion. Thank you all for the help and tips!)
Kbin is a different application, another content agregator suitable for leaving Reddit. The thing is, since we all use the same protocol to communicate (ActivityPub), these two completely different applications can talk to each other :)
Does this mean we can also technically communicate with Mastodon?
Yup!
amazing, that sounds incredibly cursed
Alright, but functionally, for a reddit refuge, which one is “better”?
Edit: and what’s Mastodon?
I think kbin has the better feature set currently, but the dev describes the platform as being in “early beta,” so IDK if it’s ready for serious usage yet. Mastodon is a Twitter-like site. I think Redditors would like Calckey better if they’re going for a Twitter-like platform, as Calckey also has threaded comment replies (though theirs is different from Reddit’s).
I honestly think that kbin is “better” but it wont be really better until they can bring back federation properly as they have had to introduce cloudflare that seems to be breaking federation. Once that is up you should be able to view between regular kbin and lemmy instances you choose. I just think kbin is set up better.
