There's a Fediverse alternative to #Reddit called #Kbin. More info at https://kbin.pub
Still VERY new, not many servers yet, two so far in English:
https://fedia.io
https://kbin.social
No app yet, use it through these sites. Subreddits are called "Magazines". You can interact with magazines from other servers.
Coders help Kbin at https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core, non-coders donate at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kbin
(Sorry to people bored of this, had many requests to put info in one place)
p.s. Kbin is part of the Fediverse. You can follow Kbin accounts and magazines from Mastodon etc, and follow Mastodon etc accounts from Kbin.
However, the cross-platform federation doesn't seem to be working properly yet (bear in mind the project is only a few months old!).
There's also a complication about the Kbin.social server being overwhelmed over the last few days. Kbin.social has had to use Cloudflare to cope with the overwhelming load, which is known to mess up federation.
Probably a #Kbin #bug, probably not. What I did: 1. Created a new Kbin “Thread” in a #Guppe group (or Kbin “Magazine”) The new Kbin Thread was received by Guppe and pushed to its members. 2. Using a Kbin account, I replied to that Kbin Thread. The reply was not seen by Guppe and thus no post/reply was pushed. 3. Using a non-Kbin account, I replied to that Kbin Thread. Kbin itself received the reply and displays it as a Thread comment. 4. Using a Kbin account, I replied to the non-Kbin reply (see #3). Guppe received it and the reply was pushed to Guppe members. --- So… it seems that a Kbin account replying to a Kbin Thread is not being received by Guppe (or Kbin is not pushing it). Note: I have not tested if the Kbin “Magazine” is not from another instance. The steps would be slightly different as the non-Kbin account first have to subscribe/follo that “Magazine“. Here is the test thread: https://fedia.io/m/[email protected]/t/969/Testing-how-posting-a-Kbin-thread-works The “Ooh, I'm starting to” and “So, this is probably a” replies were from my Kbin account and were not seen by Guppe (thus can only be seen from Kbin itself). Filed as a bug report: https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/90
