I miss that i could google something, write reddit in the end and the results would be honest and not ads or trash

Hm…

  1. More robust formatting, like being able to hide a portion of your text under a clickable spoiler. We already have most of what reddit had in that regard. but spoiler marking is crucial for any community centered on media discussion.
  2. Not reddit, but RES: the ability to click an expando and quick-preview images and videos without loading a separate page, the collapse it back to the compact view once I’ve seen it.
  3. A centralized inbox where I can see people’s replies to me, since notifications seem inconsistent.
  4. RES: The ability to collapse comment threads so I don’t have to scroll past deep-nested conversations that are less broadly interesting.

That’s really about it, feature-wise. Otherwise it’s just a matter of getting the population here to sustain content generation.

Edit: added #4

Probably April first. That stuff was usually always very fun, with the exception of the fucking quantum potato.

Mostly the communities that were already niche on reddit.

Yep it was always nice to discover the small and knowledgeable userbase. I hope we get more here

The niche communities that haven’t moved over. Mainly r/twobestfriendsplay and r/regards. Only reason why I will probably keep my reddit account despite everything

Edit: also no rss on kbin makes me sad. It’s my favorite way to quickly view my subscribed communities.

I miss having the pulse on news/happenings for Sky: Children of the Light. I know I could start my own magazine, but I’m new here and am not ready for the responsibility tbh

at this point, nothing. I’ve found the majority of communities that i want on kbin, the community is far better, less toxic, more helpful

For me it’s definitely the communities.

I think the biggest thing that I didn’t really notice at first was just how Reddit ‘works’. It was very much ‘what you see is what you get’ and didn’t really take much to figure out how to use it.

With anything new though there’s a learning curve and after 24 hours or so on kbin, I’m starting to figure out how this and the wider Fediverse works and it’s feeling more and more like home.

Also Reddit is also 18 years old (in a few days) and has 52million+ users so there’s obviously more content. As this platform grows it will be easier to get the content you want but at the moment it’s going to take some work from the user to search for magazines and contribute.

‘what you see is what you get’ and didn’t really take much to figure out how to use it.

Yeah you say that but…do you remember first going there and seeing like “TIL” “AMA” “AITA” “ELI5” etc shouted at you and having NO IDEA what any of these things meant and it made 0 sense at first?
