As Twitter destroys its brand by renaming itself X, Mastodon user numbers are again soaring | TechCrunch

Or Kbin! Kbin can do both microblogging and link aggregation/discussion. Tbh departing Twitter users coming to Mastodon, and reddit refugees are brought together on Kbin.

The "all-in-one" method acomplished by Kbin is a huge feat, especially when it's built by a single person from scratch (ie; not based on lemmy codebase wise) and still much more ActivityPub compatible.

Kbin is sadly very underrated imo.

Kbin badly needs a facelift

I think ernest (kbin dev) has already stated that he will start working on Kbin's own mobile client now that artemis is dead, although not sure how soon that will come, hope is still there. But you are right, we need a better third-party ecosystem for mobile than ever.

Is there a KBin wiki or general userguide?

Hello! I am the mod behind m/AskKbin, r/RedditAlternatives and r/KbinMigration..

I have been working on a guide that I will soon announce on m/AskKbin and have the announcement pinned, once that is out, it should help a lot and will be improved based on user feedback.

In the meanwhile, you can use of the guide here I made a while ago that should be of good use too.

What's a dead giveaway that someone is a bad person?

Haha this can be a good one, especially dogs, they are great at sensing people. But they are living things too, and they can be wrong as well. Also sometimes we could misunderstand them, maybe it's not that they don't like someone, maybe they are hesitant towards new people because of a bad history with humans until the dog met it's current owner. A lot could be applied.

Prototype for new Kbin app: Interstellar

Melroy, if you don't mind me asking, why did you go away from Kbin to start your own? I see nothing wrong with Kbin, ernest seems to be a great hardworking guy, I feel like we are just spreading the already small community too thin, Kbin is already small compared to Lemmy and now only the development has started picking up it's pace back again, another spinoff of Kbin makes no sense to me personally.

I wish you just contributed directly to Kbin man.
