WIth Reddit self-destructing, many have been wondering about alternatives on the Fediverse.

I do NOT recommend Lemmy. I have serious long-standing deep concerns about the developers, see here: https://mstdn.social/@feditips/106835057054633379

As far as I know, nothing has changed since then and Lemmy's issues remain.

Alternatively there's Kbin (https://kbin.social & https://kbin.pub) which seems less problematic. Regarding cryptocurrency issue: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediparty/pulls/97#issuecomment-663170

@feditips @rysiek I’m not thrilled about kbin’s api, it doesn’t appear to actually be activitypub, even tho they call it that. None of the objects even use the activitypub context, it’s their own context built on hydra. It’s really just a json-ld api.

@twipped @feditips interesting. Calling @ernest

@rysiek kbin has two layers of APIs, one being a standalone RESTful API and the other being ActivityPub. Similar to Mastodon, Lemmy, and others. It is still an ongoing topic of discussion:
