How did you end up finding kbin? Did you migrate here from Reddit? (kbin.social)

I was initially introduced to Mastodon a few years ago by a close friend and picked up on it quickly given the benefits of not having to deal with advertising, or being shown what a mega-corporation thought I should have to see through algorithms. I have since found a great instance over on cupoftea.social that promotes quality discussion with friendly participants.

This planted my initial seed about federated social media. I knew from some experience that it could be applied in many different ways. I started looking at Reddit alternatives recently as things started heating up over the recent API changes and came across both kbin and lemmy.

Anyways that's enough about my journey, I'm more curious about yours. What brought you here and do you plan on staying for a while?

Exactly why I made an account over here. I checked this place out yesterday, was iffy on it, then today saw the ban post and figured if they're trying to silence the main hub of talk about a competitor then it might be worth making an account and sticking around.

That’s how I originally found Reddit (from Digg) so the circle of life continues.
