Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected]
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Any recommendation? Twitter alternatives.
Mastodon. It's not invite-only like Bluesky, it doesn't track you like Threads and it's federated like Lemmy (in fact, there's some crossover in some instances).
Kbin straddles both Lemmy and Mastodon 🙂
You are comparing completely different things.
No I'm not. Kbin is part of both networks.
Kbin is fully a microblogging service.
You could try putting a metal trash can over your head and letting the neighborhood kids hit it with a stick.
Just get neighborhood kids you trust! I rounded up a few randos because I couldn't find my usual pack, and it started out fine, but a few of them decided it would be more fun to ignore the trash can and crack me in the nuts. I said I WANTED TO SIMULATE TWITTER! NOT REDDIT!!!
