    People are not moving over here for convenience, it’s new young software with many flaws and missing features. I think most of us are just looking for a brighter future of social networks, one not dictated by a megacorporation and instead segmented more under our individual control. It’s impossible for this to match reddit in everything since that’s a company with thousands of employees and a 10 year headstart, but perfect shouldn’t be an enemy of good.

      yup, i am here because third party apps or no, Reddit was just a horrible place to be anymore. i’m loving the ‘wild wild west’ of similar apps and a new social network i’d never experienced before.

      I’m with you. Plus I really miss the pre-socmed days of the internet where it was just specialized forums. Being early at kbin kinda sorta maybe feels similar.

      Also the Kbin web UI is already better than the official Reddit Mobile app or site, IMO.

      It’s no Relay for Reddit, but I’m cautiously optimistic that in six months there will be a bunch of third party apps to choose from.
