Firefox but currently exploring Orion + Kagi search to see if I am going to switch. Heard about Kagi on kbin and it seems awesome so far.
"i can't wait for grassroots decentralization of the internet, including video" 🍻
The fact that users can easily move to another instance will serve as something of a check and balance against this kind of behavior by mods and admins though, wouldn’t it?
Spent a decade on Reddit (using Alien Blue, then Apollo exclusively) but now spending 90% of that time on kbin/fediverse leaning heavily on kbin progressive web app on iPad/iPhone. Doing most what I need it to like Apollo did, and even though it’s an early prototype it’s already way better than the official Reddit iOS app!

Too much focus on Reddit drama threads and not enough on actual content (I am guilty of this too). I think as the drama passes it will liven up in the popular topics/magazines. Reddit needs to stop pulling the trigger on their foot gun first.
I’ve registered on and experimented with a handful of fediverse instances, apps, etc this week and really keep coming back to Kbin.social as my main point of entry. With the progressive web app on my phone and iPad I’m having a similar experience to Apollo, and really liking watching this community (and Lemmy) grow. Glad to be here with you all, let’s keep this excitement going!
There is something going on though, as posts show more comments than I’m seeing loading in Apollo, and also new posts/threads are locked for comments. Dissenting mods in the team who have yet to be removed?
There are several tools what may help you archive then overwrite your content. Check them out and let us know what you decide to do. The content is what makes Reddit special. If that content is not only reduced but available in a better format over here… it’s a win for everybody but the IPO bagholders
Moving to the new, better online community and leaving Reddit to become what it becomes now is winning, in my opinion.
On your iPhone, tap the "share" button (square with the arrow going up), then scroll down to "Add to Home Screen" and it will create a PWA on your home screen / apps list.
