That’s fair enough, I do hope more people move to the Fediverse in the future.


That’s completely fair enough, I find topics are a good go-to but have recently been enjoying Kbin for the next of both.


Have you ever thought of following the people from Kbin instead of Mastodon?


Thank you for sharing your experience.


Fair enough, I’ve been slowly looking Kbin as that seems to be a mix between the two.


Maybe someone should try posting the whole bible into a comment or something lol


Checking it out now, glad to be open about what platforms I try out.


What about Kbin have you tired that as it’s meant to be like a Lemmy + Mastodon mix. Not sure if it is but I’m trying it out now to see if it’s truly worth it. I currently perfer Lemmy.


I agree, it seems like there is so much content being released on Mastodon every second as Lemmy seems to be slow but you can get a quick response when you wish too.


Thank you, this explained it very well. I’ll probably carry on using Lemmy even more than I currently do as I seem to enjoy it more as well as it seems to run very smooth like you said.


Yeah I understand that, I was just asking why people lean more towards Lemmy, As I personally never used to use Social Media.


That makes sense, use them as different platforms as you can’t have 100% crossover at all times.


That makes so much sense, It’s easier to keep up with Lemmy compared to Mastodon, Like I woke up to over 30 amazing responses on my posts and now I can look through all of these and maybe write some small things in communities and move on instead of having to get around finding all the topics I want to talk about and look for.


I found that too, Seems like Mastodon feels like a continues moving river as Lemmy seems to be more calm and you can actually move around.


That makes sense, yeah I think in the end I prefer using a community aspect than a person based one.


Thanks yeah been looking into Kbin, seems very confusing but I’ll give it a chance when I’m board of Lemmy or Mastodon and want to see what I can find on the platform.


Yeah, I would love to see the ability to be able to follow users on Lemmy as it would be nice to see what your favourite people are up to.


I can see why using both Mastodon and Lemmy could be quite nice to be used for different types of content you want to find.


Character Limits are annoying, I don’t think Lemmy has one or at least I haven’t reached it.


I’m a Lesbian hun, I only go one way lol


Yeah I it’s amazing having the Fediverse <3


I’ve just created my kbin account now, I’ll give it a good go, been enjoying Lemmy the most as of the moment but if I can find a platform that works even better for me then that would be great.


I pretty much agree, I find being able to flip between communities more useful than just having a feed of the same like-minded people, you explained it really well thanks.


Pretty much what I thought it was like, but what about Kbin?


Oh I didn’t release there was that much difference between Kbin and Lemmy, I knew they were similar but I didn’t release they sort of work together a bit more.

I like the UI of Threads sure but never been a huge user of Twitter or Reddit. haven’t really been a user of Social Media but I do find Lemmy a lot more freeing in the chatting sort of way.


Mastodon or Lemmy
So I've been starting to look further into the Fediverse and using it a lot more than any other part of the internet at this point. I wanna know the reasons why people might prefer Lemmy or Mastodon, I have both but seem to lean towards Lemmy for some reason, but not sure why maybe it's the simple design and you can find topics a little easier or it might be because I prefer the idea of Reddit over twitter. Why do you prefer Lemmy? (or mastodon?)

Yeah I didn’t really think when I said about Podcasts tbh but it’s nice to know that I can choose what I want to use.



Yeah that’s at least something and I have been wanting to look further into running a Plex server.





Hents why I asked the question, I’d rather move away from these paid for services ran by companies to earn mass profit from people.



Thanks will look into it as soon as I can as it looks kind of cool


Yeah that’s a fair point, I sometimes forget RSS feeds are a thing.


I believe it would have to be more the artists wanting to publish there music on the platform, as letting people ‘borrow’ your music will quickly get to a cease and desist. So it would be more of a platform for artists to be able to publish there music and podcasts that is open for anyone to create there own instance from the source code such as Mastodon does for the Micro-Bloggers, It would mean artists control there music but also can release it to the public to listen too, the only main problem I can see is money, the main thing I can see across the whole Fediverse is money tbh, like who pays for the servers and stuff, where do they get that money from and how does that effect the Fediverse. Really do hope we get a PeerTube like thing for Music but maybe in the future.


Ok, I can try my best.

I’m intrested in knowing what people think a good ratio of Post to Comments are on a Profile, like what would be a good standard / possibly amazing looking profile have for Post:Comments

I hope that explains it, I’ll edit the post now


Yeah that’s completely fair enough, they do have some good suggestions and I guess it is the way people discover artists these days.



Thank you, I will check this out. Yeah I didn’t know if it would work fully like Spotify or some other way as currently, the Fediverse doesn’t have a fully paid way yet.


Is there a Decentralised Spotify / Music Platform Alternative?
So I know about Mastodon, Lemmy / Kbin, PeerTube, and Element but is there a Fediverse alternative to Music & Podcasts (preferably one that doesn't connect to Crypto)

Can you claim ‘Abandoned’ Communities
So I came across someone who was community squatting and now have seen they have been banned from Lemmy.world is there anyway I or anyone else can Claim any of the Communities they created as they now no longer have any mods.

Post to Comment Ratio
What sort of Post to Comment Ratio would you say is a good range for Lemmy / KBin? I'm interested in knowing what people think a good ratio of Post to Comments are on a Profile, like what would be a good standard / possibly amazing looking profile have for Post:Comments

Does the Lemmy / Kbin (Fediverse) have more helpful content than Reddit?
Pretty much the question, Does it have better help than Reddit?
