I'd like to encourage people on the fediverse to comment/upvote/post more than when reddit (feddit.uk)

If you are usually a reddit lurker and are on here, it would be cool if you can try and engage with communities for a bit, just to try and get the ball rolling :)

That link is malformed - https://kbin.social/m/bestof exists, but when you click that it converts it to https://kbin.social/u/@[email protected] that does not. I don't know how to make it not do that.

Linking is still very confusing, that's one of the main friction points we need to solve in order to really unlock our growth.

Apparently that extends to links from our notifications area too, b/c I had a hell of a time getting to see your reply. Maybe the number of pages expanded since then or something, but I had to really hunt for it. Oh well, still better than Reddit argumentative trolling!:-P

Word. I'm on Lemmy mainly and its notification system is actually really great, it usually pops up right in your screen with a little preview of the reply and you can just click it.

Kbin I just started figuring out today and I've also been having a hell of a time navigating that interface. There's a lot to like, for instance I love that you can see the user who downvoted any comment on kbin, and the reputation system is also cool.

But the ability to actually find content so that you can interact is pretty tricky. I think Lemmy makes it a bit easier because you can poke around your home instance first to get the hang of things, before heading out into the larger threadiverse.

That's good to know. I think both are improving technologically so hopefully even as Lemmy pulls ahead, kbin.social won't be as far behind in the future.
