Very nice. Relaxing :)

Totally agree.
For a given sub, how many accounts map to individuals vs bots/fake accounts? For real accounts, how many of those actively engage with the sub? This is not a problem for 'controlled' user accounts. The legitimacy of any vote will be suspect...no way around that.
Oh, that’s rich. The API was created for third party access. And if he didn’t like it, why was it tolerated for so long? Hmmm…maybe because they brought in more users and their data to fatten the pig before IPO?
Crap! Just did that too :/
Like any early adopter, I'm here for the potential.
Bingo. Some of the alternatives are relatively new. Focusing on potential is exactly the right approach. This is not Reddit, nor should it try to be. Focusing on the engagement is refreshing and mobile apps will come and grow eventually. I'll miss Apollo for sure but so far, I'm likely the experience here.
I really respect the admins for keeping things going during the influx.
I agree and you aren't really aware of it until you are gone for a bit. I'm convinced the algorithm promotes some toxicity as it likely drives more engagement, which in turn promotes ad revenue. kbin feels like real human engagement. I replaced all of my reddit comments with a mild protest statement. Will likely delete on June 30th.
Sort of manual but try this as a kbin.social user:
https://kbin.social/m/{lemmy community} <-- but without the '!'
e.g. https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Remember to remove the '!' :)
