What do you think is responsible for lemmy’s growth over other alternatives like KBin and Tildes? - eviltoast

Is it speed? Features? Ease of development? Just curious why lemmy is seeing more activity as opposed to other networks.

    FWIW I’ve had as many issues with federation between Lemmy instances as with Lemmy-to-kbin. So I’m my view the accurate warning is the main difference.

      shrug I’m just speaking of my experience. I’ve been able to access the communities I’m interested in on multiple lemmy instances, but I’ve had zero luck on Kbin. Frankly, the “connect to remote community” UX for both lemmy and Kbin is complete crap, and is likely the #1 turnoff for new users. I’m very disappointed that neither have chosen to fix it.
