Yeah, Artemis is an app for Kbin that is in a very limited beta right now (I’m not in it) - *edit got the link wrong the first time **and the second time. Artemis

Yeah… it is a little overwhelming when just dipping your toes. In the initial push to get off of reddit I ended up with a lot of accounts… Beehaw, sh.itjust.works, fedia.io, kbin.social, readit.buzz, infosec.exchange, infosec.town, defcon.social, tildes, squabbles, etc. At some point you just have to use something.
If I had to guess what I’ll be doing in the future, I’d say it will resemble reddit where I had multiple accounts for different purposes but not different platforms, just different content filters and topics. Eventually there will be at least one app that works with both Lemmy and Kbin accounts and make it all more or less seemless and arbitrary.
Right now I’m primarily using Kbin and Beehaw, I don’t know which account will eventually be more important to me. I’m also using Ice Cubes for Mastodon with a couple different Mastodon accounts. What would push me all-in on a kbin instance would be if I federation between Lemmy instances and mastodon instances reached a level of functioning that didn’t feel like I was missing anything. I’d rather not have a million different apps and accounts just to see different versions of the same shit.
I’m on both (repeatedly, multiple servers and accounts) but even with Memmy I find myself gravitating towards Kbin and once Artemis is out I’ll probably stay there. Beehaw has the best interaction on its local communities, but Kbin is just a better feed for me mostly. No brand or server loyalty for me, I will continue using all until one seems to address all my wants.
It used to make sense, like… people that need no provocation to go into something they won’t shut up about, or things like that. Lately it has just stopped being used in any way that actually makes the “Nobody:” part matter.
AI will replace all of us at our jobs.

Got one for Christmas and it had been a revolutionary improvement for my pooping life. Now every time I travel or have to poo in public I spend the whole time pouting and thinking wistfully about my bidet at home.

I’m terrified of bears. A little excess moisture? A low level fear at most.
This has been consensus across most of Reddit. Most people don’t care, and won’t care. So, those of us that do just need to be here making the best of it and not worrying about Reddit. Once there is comparable amounts of content in the Fediverse, people will end up joining for the same reason they joined Reddit.
I initially signed up for Reddit after I kept getting sent links to Reddit. It was just a place that had information I was interested in.
Right now, telling people to join because it will eventually be good and it’s ethically good doesn’t work because there’s not much here and most people are fine using commercial software.
However once there is a wealth of information here, say someone publishes a very good guide for self-hosting and you have a friend that wants to self-host a Plex server, you link them to a lemmy or kbin guide. They will naturally be compelled to join and ask questions if they have them.
It takes time. Just let those of us that are ideologically driven create content good enough that everyone else ends up coming for their own reasons.
Loving it - federation is great, hardly ever even know which instance I’m interacting with from kbin, which is a good thing as it means the federation is working and mostly seamless. Can’t wait for some apps to come out and streamline the experience, hopefully some more people will start coming here to populate a lot of the communities that I’d like to participate or lurk in. Right now there’s a lot of… uh… shouting into the void trying to fill the space. I’m posting way more than I ever did on reddit just because like… somebody has to do it, right?
You know, not EVERYTHING has to be discussed in a way that puts your interest in kink on display for the world 👀

SOMEBODY hates Edge so much that this is the only downvoted comment in the thread. Crazy the amount of hate Microsoft gets, I also use Outlook just because it’s a better email experience than iPhone’s built in app.

Edge lately. Don’t sleep on edge.
This is one of those things where every time I start thinking about it I just… stop thinking about it and remember to keep an eye on what my son is up to on the internet.
