Looking at Fedidb.org the Fediverse Network Statistics, I'm seeing about 98,000 Active users as of the 27th. That's at least 50k new users this month. Welcome to Lemmy, fellow migrants!

I'm pretty content with KBin. As time goes on the content level will increase and hopefully remain at a level which makes it easy to curate my feed and reduce noise. Truth be told Reddit has been getting worse for a long time and being here reflects that. This feels a lot like what Reddit felt like 10 years ago.

I like kbin but I'm hoping to find a fast way to filter out all of the German subs. I have absolutely no issue with them, I just can't understand the content so it's useless to me. It seems to take up about half of my feed

You can click the cancel icon besides the subscribe button in any magazine to stop them being shown to you

I don't see either a subscribe button or a cancel icon. When i click on a community name it brings me to a page that's just a feed of the links in that community.

do you open it from mobile phone? because the option is there on pc

I tried it on both the mobile site and also using the "load desktop site" versions, and i don't see the "subscribe" or "cancel" options on either version.

EDIT:

Oh geez, i did some poking around and it seems that you have to tap the hamburger menu in the upper left of the website's header section, then scroll down past a bunch of stuff unrelated to the community, and only THEN can you see the subscribe and block options. It's clearly very early days in the design of this site. Amazing what's been accomplished thus far, but there's still a lot to be done.

Yeah the hamburger menu is not intuitive at all, but you can also scroll all the way down in a magazine to see those options

lol yeah, some kbin design are just not intuitive. like, why should I scroll to the bottom of the page to post a comment? also there's no button to hide/unhide comment, see parents comment, etc. Lemmy is more similar to reddit, but it has a worse interface and much buggier
