You can but you'll need a permission note from your mom. Seriously it's not a big deal, you can use both at the same time, nothing says you have to quit cold turkey. It would be more beneficial though i think to link discussions to the Fediverse rather than just to Reddit.
Instead of just tweeting, toot to the Fediverse as well. Try not to be annoying about it demanding people use the Fediverse, just do it the quiet sneaky way. Get people clicking Fediverse links with topics they would be interested in, and with their own volition they will learn about the Fediverse and come to look at it as a viable choice, hopefully.

Not well-versed with mobile solutions. Maybe use something like Brave with built-in blockers. Or run reddit through something like Hermit App which also has blockers.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this. I created a magazine and I would like to add an image/banner to it, but I don't know how. I tried just using markdown to include the image in the description, but that just adds the hyperlink. Am I missing something?
Namecheap is still good, and honestly very well priced. The main issue is that they don't support automated DNS verification for things like let's encrypt certbot.
This is because they make money selling SSL certs.
If you can live without wildcard certs, or are willing to update them manually, it's fine.
I’ve used NameCheap for about 5 years now and it’s alright. I don’t have to deal with them so much since I only have one domain and my setup is pretty simple.
Same. I've been using NameCheap for years. I have 3 or 4 domains for different things. I really just need a registrar to hold my names and DNS which rarely changes. My domains auto-renew every year and I barely have to think about it. They're fine for my needs, no complaints.
Olha, estou confortável com usar pelo navegador então nem fui atrás de aplicativos.
Mas ao que tudo indica, o Kbin permite gerar um feed RSS, então pelo menos publicações podem ser vistas em outros serviços.
E imagino que, tal como a concorrência, tenha um API público próprio, então talvez tenha aplicativo próprio também.
I thought for sure this was gonna be matrix lol. revolt looks interesting. is it node/js based though? I can't imagine running another electron app alongside my browser and discord lol.
The backend is based on Rust, the current web frontend is based on preact. They are working on native Android and iOS apps, and a GTK based desktop client is being planned (but on hold currently). There is potential for an ecosystem of third-party apps due to the API being fully open
i've caved a few times today, briefly. and i'm frustrated because reddit is basically google for me. i go to it for a lot of info. the fediverse can't do that just yet. if it becomes popular it will, but yeah. not yet.
and it's good for random info too. like even when i'm not looking for anything. i'm already subscribed to topics i care about. so i will see relevant things.
other sites aren't really fulfilling that for me right now.
Well since you mention it, googling things just brings me to reddit threads.
It's frustrating because 1) right now subs that are private are completely lost of information (which is good! But also, sad to lose for why we lost it) and 2) because it just shows results from reddit...
I'm no longer in the sadness stage of grief, now I am angry. I have thought of all the stupid things they've done since I joined in 2018
First they made the awful new layout
Then they promised to implement css in new reddit, only to never do so
Then they introduced too many award variations, and made it so people could get them for free, removing what value the awards had.
Then they made customizable snoos, which while cute were uneccesary.
Then they introduced, barely advertised, then killed reddit cspan. Never heard of it? Can't blame you!
Then the introduced NFT avatars.
Then they did that awful april fools arg that was so hidden only a few did it and those who found the answer found it on discord. Also the answer was reddit was run on a literal potato which seems to be truer by the day.
Then they did this API shit.
During all that time where they could have introduced features that were useful to their app and fixing up the cruft with new reddit, they slaked off in order to increase profits. Only two features that were useful were ever introduced during 2018 - 2023: polls and gallery uploads. That's it.
So I am sad for the communities, but reddit itself? Nah.
I feel sort of lost, because one of my sources of information is cut off. Besides being able to be a part of that highly-specific community you were looking for, reddit also was very good for finding answers to any random question and avoiding bad google-search articles that are quite often unhelpful.
Yes! For me, it was extremely effective at its primary goal of being a content aggregator. I kept up with sooooo much news that was thematicly linked (national news, world news, politics, specific country's news/politics) that I could be the smartest person in most rooms I occupied in irl.
I think though that the corresponding magazines will be the first massly populated here on kbin.
This is the thing for me. I think I'm experiencing a bit of news FOMO. Reddit has been reliable for years at supplying news, cat antics, and pretty girls. I also agree that google+reddit has been really useful in solving very specific problems.
I think people are jumping the gun a bit on what Kbin is and are expecting it to be as huge as Reddit which it might never be. Most of my news I’m getting via the free version of Feedly which is an RSS reader and I’m only really using Kbin to scratch that itch for a bit of commenting.
I hope people are exploring their options with being able to interact with Lemmy and Beehaw boards via Federation too. If this setup ever gets as big as Reddit it’ll be through the federated whole not one individual site. Considering how much data costs to host I think pushing one site towards a monopoly will always force increased advertIsing and with popularity comes financial predators. This is of course what Reddit is going through now.
