As Reddit melts down, users are fleeing to lemmy, kbin, tildes and more.

Not being able to make an account on tildes kinda stopped me from even giving it a chance. Like I get they have valid reasons, but I want to curate my content and be able to be able to make the occasional comment.

Has Tildes gotten better?

Last time I used it the site felt like it was dead and pointless.

Well recent events have certainly made it seem more active.

I logged into my old account and yeah, it's still pretty quiet compared to Lemmy. Each group might only get 1 or 2 new posts a day from a casual glance. I think there's only been about 80 posts in the last 24 hours total which is OK I suppose.

Last time I looked at Tildes you had to email an actual person with your password to set it up or change it.

I signed up for it a couple weeks ago. I just sent an email to ask to join then he sent me a sign-up invitation. I didn't send him a password or anything of the sort.

edit: a word.

They must have finally fixed that bit.

Speaking as a web dev, it should have never worked that way.
