Mastodon or Lemmy

So I’ve been starting to look further into the Fediverse and using it a lot more than any other part of the internet at this point. I wanna know the reasons why people might prefer Lemmy or Mastodon, I have both but seem to lean towards Lemmy for some reason, but not sure why maybe it’s the simple design and you can find...

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Oh I didn’t release there was that much difference between Kbin and Lemmy, I knew they were similar but I didn’t release they sort of work together a bit more.

I like the UI of Threads sure but never been a huge user of Twitter or Reddit. haven’t really been a user of Social Media but I do find Lemmy a lot more freeing in the chatting sort of way.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Pretty much what I thought it was like, but what about Kbin?

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I pretty much agree, I find being able to flip between communities more useful than just having a feed of the same like-minded people, you explained it really well thanks.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve just created my kbin account now, I’ll give it a good go, been enjoying Lemmy the most as of the moment but if I can find a platform that works even better for me then that would be great.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I it’s amazing having the Fediverse <3

I’m a Lesbian hun, I only go one way lol

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Character Limits are annoying, I don’t think Lemmy has one or at least I haven’t reached it.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I can see why using both Mastodon and Lemmy could be quite nice to be used for different types of content you want to find.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I would love to see the ability to be able to follow users on Lemmy as it would be nice to see what your favourite people are up to.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks yeah been looking into Kbin, seems very confusing but I’ll give it a chance when I’m board of Lemmy or Mastodon and want to see what I can find on the platform.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That makes sense, yeah I think in the end I prefer using a community aspect than a person based one.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I found that too, Seems like Mastodon feels like a continues moving river as Lemmy seems to be more calm and you can actually move around.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That makes so much sense, It’s easier to keep up with Lemmy compared to Mastodon, Like I woke up to over 30 amazing responses on my posts and now I can look through all of these and maybe write some small things in communities and move on instead of having to get around finding all the topics I want to talk about and look for.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That makes sense, use them as different platforms as you can’t have 100% crossover at all times.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I understand that, I was just asking why people lean more towards Lemmy, As I personally never used to use Social Media.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you, this explained it very well. I’ll probably carry on using Lemmy even more than I currently do as I seem to enjoy it more as well as it seems to run very smooth like you said.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I agree, it seems like there is so much content being released on Mastodon every second as Lemmy seems to be slow but you can get a quick response when you wish too.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

What about Kbin have you tired that as it’s meant to be like a Lemmy + Mastodon mix. Not sure if it is but I’m trying it out now to see if it’s truly worth it. I currently perfer Lemmy.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Checking it out now, glad to be open about what platforms I try out.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Maybe someone should try posting the whole bible into a comment or something lol

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Fair enough, I’ve been slowly looking Kbin as that seems to be a mix between the two.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you for sharing your experience.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Have you ever thought of following the people from Kbin instead of Mastodon?

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That’s completely fair enough, I find topics are a good go-to but have recently been enjoying Kbin for the next of both.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That’s fair enough, I do hope more people move to the Fediverse in the future.

SamXavia ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

You mean like !peertube ?

SamXavia ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

No problem, hope you enjoy.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I don’t think it would be a huge platform with every song but it would be nice to know if they have something like that out there,

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you, I will check this out. Yeah I didn’t know if it would work fully like Spotify or some other way as currently, the Fediverse doesn’t have a fully paid way yet.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks I’ll check it out.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah that’s completely fair enough, they do have some good suggestions and I guess it is the way people discover artists these days.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I believe it would have to be more the artists wanting to publish there music on the platform, as letting people ‘borrow’ your music will quickly get to a cease and desist. So it would be more of a platform for artists to be able to publish there music and podcasts that is open for anyone to create there own instance from the source code such as Mastodon does for the Micro-Bloggers, It would mean artists control there music but also can release it to the public to listen too, the only main problem I can see is money, the main thing I can see across the whole Fediverse is money tbh, like who pays for the servers and stuff, where do they get that money from and how does that effect the Fediverse. Really do hope we get a PeerTube like thing for Music but maybe in the future.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah that’s a fair point, I sometimes forget RSS feeds are a thing.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks will look into it as soon as I can as it looks kind of cool

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Hents why I asked the question, I’d rather move away from these paid for services ran by companies to earn mass profit from people.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks, I can’t really spell

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I’ll check it out, thank you.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah that’s at least something and I have been wanting to look further into running a Plex server.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

That’s really cool, I’ll take a look.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I didn’t really think when I said about Podcasts tbh but it’s nice to know that I can choose what I want to use.

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Nope there isn’t just the mods on it.

SamXavia OP ,

Thanks just found it

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

Ok, I can try my best.

I’m intrested in knowing what people think a good ratio of Post to Comments are on a Profile, like what would be a good standard / possibly amazing looking profile have for Post:Comments

I hope that explains it, I’ll edit the post now

SamXavia OP ,
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar
