I’m on kbin and I’m having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage… like I used to do on Reddit?
Make no mistake if the fediverse keeps gaining traction there will still be gamification so long as there are points associated with posts. Even more so since profiles are generally less anonymous than reddit.

How so?
My profile tells you I use an instance (in this case my own, dusty-radio) and my username on that instance (in this case Dusty). All this tells you is the name I’ve chosen and that I host this myself. It’s no different than if I was Dusty on reddit, other than the instance URL.
Supposedly your entire up-vote / down-vote history is publically available through some API calls. I haven’t verified it myself, but the what I have seen makes it look plausible.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]
A community to talk about the Fediverse and all it’s related services using ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, KBin, etc).
