Trying to “recruit” more folks in Kbin but I think I lack enough information to describe Kbin effectively.

“It’s like Reddit but it’s in the fediverse world. It’s a new thing, gaining speed fast and it has less chances to get corrupted because of the fediverse thingie compared to Reddit (lol)!”

    Activity pub and the feddiverse are literally the email of social media. Everyone uses email and has a basic grip on it. You at gmail.com can mail someone at hotmail.com and vice versa. So the host you choose doesn’t really matter much.

    Mastodon and other similar clients give you a classic twitter like experience. With linear feeds and no algorithms to manipulate what you see. What you want to see is what you will see.

    Lemmy and other similar clients give you a reddit like interface. Again with no complex manipulative algorithms. And the ability for much better moderated and curated experience than reddit.

    Peertube gives you a YouTube like interface and focuses on video content.

    Pixelfed is a Google photos or similar interface focusing on images.

    They’re all activity pub. And can even interoperate. You can post to Lemmy from mastodon etc. Though that’s a bit more advanced currently.
