I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    I like the idea and KBin’s software looks really nice. My concern is that it just won’t have the critical mass needed to get what I got out of Reddit: niche subs. On Reddit, every single game has its own individual sub and they’re all active. That’s not gonna work here.

    I did set up !fgc@kbin.social and !splatoon@kbin.social, but I don’t know if these will take off, and I’m not going to bother trying with individual fighting games or smaller indie titles.

    Also, I’m intrigued that KBin is able to talk to Mastodon and Pleroma, but I can’t seem to find myself. I search for @missingno but nothing shows up.
