I'm sure the answers here will be biased in favor of Lemmy, but I think I'll be sticking around here for a while. There's some communities on Reddit that, unfortunately, are too niche and don't have an equivalent on lemmy. While I'm trying to create the equivalent of r/presidents, there's other communities like r/aceattorney, r/slaythespire, etc. that to my knowledge, don't have a large community outside of it.

Despite this, I don't think I'll be moving elsewhere. I prefer Lemmy to kbin as of now, and as far as forums go, the only non-reddit or non-lemmy one that I'd even remotely consider being more regular on is Historum. Though with Historum, I find it better to just browse older threads rather than partake in current ones.

I'm definitely sticking around. It was slow going on Lemmy after Reddit's third party app shutdown on 6/30 but there's been a noticeable uptick in posts and comments in the communities I follow which is great. I don't need 5,000 responses per post and Lemmy's discussion volume works just fine for me.

There are still a few interests I follow that aren't present on Lemmy that I'm aware of (pro wrestling and NFL being the big ones), but hopefully those arrive soon.

I much prefer Kbin, mainly because of the interface, the quality of the feed, and microblog feature

The only social media i would move to is Mastodon.

So far, yes, but I don't really have any allegiances to this site and will jump ship to a competitor in a heartbeat if something better comes along. I know some people like the decentralized federation approach here, but I actually see that as the biggest downside to using this site. The value proposition of Reddit in its heyday was that it offered a single landing point for all sorts of discussions that used to be scattered across hundreds of different forums. The decentralized federation approach moves away from that, and while that offers some advantages, it also comes with a lot of disadvantages too.

I'm a fan of Lemmy, for the memes and link aggregator aspect of it. And sense of community, there are trolls but it's generally pretty positive.

I also like the Old Internet feel that the Fediverse in general has. I'm going out and looking for things that interest me again rather than hoping for something new to come into my feed. Actually reading articles. Commenting more than twice a year.

We'll see what happens but overall, I think I'm staying.

I think, despite rough things (performance, ui bits I dislike etc etc) its one of the better alternatives with lots of potential.

I considered setting up kbin but Lemmy looked easier and has apps.

I feel like there’s people just taking top posts from Reddit and getting them here as fast as they can. Sometimes it seems like a “best of” Reddit site.

The best of the options we have so far. Really wish Christian from Apollo fame would make an app for it.

Thank you my man! I get it now

Is Kbin considered an option?
