This feels like a forced reddit detox. (kbin.social)

I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn't hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in the sky.

In all seriousness though, I'll admit that I was kind of addicted to Reddit and now I don't want to go near it. Maybe this will turn a new leaf for me. If not here, I'll probably find some other way to satiate my dopamine receptors through more productive means.

I'm not going to lie, I don't really use any 3rd party reddit app, and I like the official app and all that, but I've made the switch because I'm not going to support the CEO of the company doing the same thing that reddit mods get made fun of for. However, kbin is a bit more user unfriendly and it certainly is a learning curve. I haven't figured out how to see which magazines I'm subscribed to except for hunting them down from the list of mags. I haven't had any issues with the community yet, and I get how the federation works and all that, I just think kbin is missing some of the features that really made reddit a breeze.

It‘s not intuitive, but you can find your subscriptions in the settings

In terms of features kbin is kinda lacking, but considering that it‘s basically existed only for a few months and has been developed by a single guy it‘s pretty impressive

I‘m sure new features will be added relatively quickly now that a lot of people are willing to help out

I’m really impressed with all the work earnest has done and now is extremely busy doing.
