People who don't use other social media apart from Lemmy... how do you explain this decision to the average Joe with accounts for all existing social media?

You're viewing a single thread.
Because it’s basically Reddit but actually usable on mobile
Also Kbin is better but has weird rep rules and lacks an API so there currently aren’t mobile apps I can use
I’ve seen a lot of people say that kbin is better but I’ve really gravitated toward Lemmy. What makes it better to you?
The UI and UX (save for replying at the bottom), integration with Mastodon et al, the auto expand images option and appearance customizablity, the concept of tweeting in a sub, how users centralize on the main server (ironic ik)
The only dealbreakers I can think of are the weird rep system (boosting gives rep, upvoting doesn’t, downvoting subtracts rep) and the lack of API, both of which they are supposedly working on
Oh and also 196 isn’t full of gay NSFW text that isn’t tagged as NSFW
Also, sorting posts/threads works a lot better on Kbin. Meanwhile on Lemmy you might get a 21d-old post while sorting by hot.
