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)!"

more toxic than reddit these days and that's saying something.

frankly I'm tired of even mundane, apolitical comments resulting in angry rage filled replies. not as nice a place it used to be

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Peculiar.
I don't see this behavior.

Are you referring to a news or a politic community?

[-] Marin_Rider@aussie.zone 0 points 11 months ago

almost any community really if it's on world. I prefer stick to my home instance

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago

Peculiar.

I am subscribed to some .world's but I don't recall such behavior.
