Like, if you're totally fine with not being able to effectively moderate a server you operate, then by all means, test out #kbin and #lemmy, but encouraging folks to use either en-mass as if they're anywhere near the calibre of Mastodon or Pixelfed* then you're in for a very very bad time.

Alpha software does need alpha users to test and provide feedback, but we should be VERY careful recommending alpha software to mainstream massive audiences as an alternative to $centralisedPlatform.

@thisismissem that’s unfortunate... I was kinda looking forward to using #kbin. I guess that’ll have to wait a while.

Emelia 👸🏻

@genebean yeah, in my opinion, it is WAY too early for the general public to be using kbin.

@thisismissem here’s to hoping it progresses successfully at least

@thisismissem this has been my experience as well. Kbin and Lemmy are…in existence, which is cool, but they are nowhere near as polished as Mastodon was when Elon took over, in terms of software or community.

Emelia 👸🏻

@brndnpink exactly. Both are at the level of Mastodon circa 2016 or 2017.. they've a very very long way to go

hanks for doing this @thisismissem -- looking forward to the fuler report. History unsurpriingly repeats itself: "Get ready for trolls, hate speech, harassment, spam, porn, and disinformation" and "Invest in moderation tools" were two of the tpics I covered in "Don't tell people "it's easy", and six more things Kbin, Lemmy, and the fediverse can learn from Mastodon" privacy.thenexus.today/kbin-le
