I like these federated services being kinda "rough around the edges"

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It's actually another Reddit clone similar to Lemmy, but much newer. You can use kbin to see posts from kbin, Lemmy, or Mastodon. There's a bit of a guide to it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/145npay/the_redditors_guide_to_how_kbin_works_your/
After using Lemmy and kbin a little bit over the past few days, Lemmy seems to be a bit more stable at this point so I'm sticking with it for now. But with more development time, kbin might ultimately be where I head to.
Thanks! I will check it out kbin.
I have Mastedon but Lemmy is more enjoyable. I’m thinking it’s because mastedon is more like twitter and I never got into twitter to begin with.
Kbin is a mix of both.
The UI is built like lemmy and has a micro blog which is more twitter-esque.
You can subscribe to kbin "magazines" just like communities from other federated lemmy instances too, so you can view them all through lemmy.world or whichever instance you're on
