I really do like KBin and Lemmy and the fediverse on the whole, but development is still young and the userbase still growing. KBin is still basically early access, and Lemmy is buggy. I spent alot of time in reddit and I'm feeling the pain of trying to ween myself from it. Just wanted to here community perspectives and see how other's are taking it.

For me, I feel a bit of a sore hollow spot for what reddit used to be and watching it implode is not fun for me.

It's a common thing for people who move (country) as kids. Sociological term is Third Culture Kid.

Third Culture Kid

Wow just knowing that it's so common an experience that there's a name for it is comforting.

Thank you so much for sharing that.

Read a book about it if you have time or a few articles.

I read the big one (Pollock, Van Reken) and it was honestly scary how well it described some parts of my personality, and the challenges I was dealing with in my life.

Thanks, added it to my to-be-read list. My preference is fiction these days, but I'm not above mixing in an academic book every now and then
