It fell behind, it's started up again and I'm loving the improvements. I'm.on .social so Ernest is kind of the instance host as well as the dev. I do trust him, he's cool.

When I first joined it wasn't even federating and we had constant Cloudflare challenges. I'm patient.

Besides, I have accounts all over the fediverse if I feel like it. Lemmy still doesn't feel right to me.

How when there’s so many apps and alternative frontends to choose from?

Says the user coming from a porn instance XD

NGL though, lemmy fuk is cool.

Thanks, I actually run it but don’t understand what you’re getting at lol.

I dunno, I thought half the posts there were porn or at least labelled NSFW. You do host one of the best meme communities, from which I occassionally steal.

Also your logo reminds me of Transformice.

It just doesn't have as many features and feels less intuitive.

Kbin going to release API soon.

That doesn’t even make any sense replying to me so I don’t know if you were replying to somebody else or what. If you use an alternate front end, there are way more features or if you use an app there are way more features. Do you understand what I’m saying? There’s some very unique projects out there.

@willya sorry yeah I think I misunderstood you. Thought you were talking about API for 3rd parties.

Hey what front end do you recommend? Need a clean minimalist interface that can block instances, block specific websites, and I like to see names of users who upvoted/downvoted, and keep notes on users.

I will be using kbin as my main but I'd like my lemmy stuff to look a bit nicer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m not sure that any can block instances until the 0.19 update, but I suggest Photon, Alexandrite, or Tesseract. Tesseract is the most feature packed. App suggestions would depend on which OS you’re using.

I also think Kbin is way ahead of Lemmy in terms of integrating with the Fediverse at large. It's not perfect for sure, but in my opinion it builds on a better starting point. The real test of Mastodon integration for me will be when Mastodon finally introduces groups - it will be interesting to see how they integrate with communities in the Threadiverse.

I honestly also struggle to get an overview of what's happening in Lemmy development, to me Kbin seems more transparent. But both platforms are obviously fine, and Lemmy is still more mature for sure.
