The "without commercial interest" seems to push it into commercial territory. These, including the original, look like corporate filler posters to me.

Yes but on reddit, upvotes puts something in your upvoted list and you can save selectively, which is a much better system for organization.
Boosts and upvotes have a slightly different functionality here that I do upvote and/or boost posts and comments differently, none of which is to add the post to my favorites. Even though it can be used that way for the same effect, it's a different use case.
What if I want to save a post I didn't want to boost or favorite? Should I not be able to save a comment I disagree with that I also downvoted?
Don't you know? You gotta suffer for your work to matter. Everybody could work hard if working was enjoyable and well compensated.
If everyone works hard, and willingly so, how will we differentiate who's better?
Kbin doesn't currently support saving.
I bookmark things for now on my local browser. Afaik, the feature is in the to do list so I'll save what I can from from the bookmarks manually once that's done.
Yes but that's only relevant if you're aware of a specific community on a specific instance and expect to be interacting with it on purpose.
It's completely irrelevant if someone just gives you the name of an instance, tells you to make an account on it and start using. You'll be perfectly fine reading and commenting whatever's in your feed.
The only way this breaks is if you're in an instance that is too small to have local traffic while having technical difficulties with federation. If the instance is active enough or it's federating normally, someone completely unaware of the concept of federation will be perfectly fine as long as they understand the interface.
It also underlines what the OP is saying. The average user doesn't need to do anything or think about anything special to use the platform. Simply making an account and interacting with whatever is on front of you will work.
It's only complicated if you're constantly comparing it to reddit in your head and trying to recreate the exact experience here.
You are literally participating in kbin content right now, commenting on a thread on a kbin magazine posted by a user registered to kbin.
Looks like it's time to set up shop on lemmy or kbin. Even if some of the pissed off users come over, it should be a vibrant alternative community
As a communist, you guys are tolerable to me too, I think we'll get along.
Fuck Nazis and tankies btw. I don't call myself communist to turn around and support imperialists on the next breath.
I legit started studying social psychology to understand this and similar phenomena. It's going slow but I hope to have a working understanding in a few years.
I think (and hope) so too. Some pro leniency stances from mastodon bigwigs got me a little worried, that's all.
Yeah. They deserve to not suffer because TheY TaKe aLl tHe RiSk!
