You can in Newfoundland if you have a permit.

I've tried Lemmy a bit last night. I know Lemmy threads can be searched and browsed here and I'm not sure it matter, but if it does I hope it's Kbin that wins the mass adoption war. I'm finding the Kbin UI experience more enjoyable. I also appreciate the way it combines a microblog tweet like feature with reddit type usage into the same platform.

I can't be on several platforms? Out of curiosity I joined other potential reddit alternatives in the past even though I had no plans on leaving Reddit. Same situation here.

I have no problem with this. I'm upset with r/chicago mod team for not having opened back up yet. Protest or not, it is an important service to the people that live in Chicago. The mods shouldn't be allowed to take it away just because they don't like Reddit. If they don't like reddit's admins or policies they should remove themselves from the mod team.

Interaction with r/conservatives. I made a comment that I downvote memes that dumb down complex ideas. I was banned for it.

Mostly just wanted to make my first comment

I haven't signed up for Lemmy. Between the Lemmy and Kbin I like this Kbin a heck of lot more and decided to sign up here.

I haven't abandoned Reddit and I have no plans on doing so. I'll probably be on both platforms if this one takes off or until Reddit becomes something like a Myspace. For now I'm just exploring here.
