Seeing sticky posts on r/RedditAlternatives like https://teddit.net/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1467a5s/

I don’t see how anything can be coordinated when so many options are presented in a confusing way.

Of course, they don’t have to choose Lemmy / kbin instances, but I’m worried that a lot of people will stay on Reddit given the inability to properly communicate alternatives.

(Bonus: most platforms listed here ( https://teddit.net/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/yttdlc/list_of_active_reddit_alternatives_v8/ ) are terrible and Lemmy is relegated to the “less active” section; furthermore only lemmy.ml is listed, instead of https://join-lemmy.org for example)

    I don’t understand how discord is even sort of similar - how can a live messaging app substitute for a forum?

      You can make posts and create threads inside threads now. The tags and roles are pretty useful for a community too. Still, doesn’t compare to an actual forum, especially since you can’t vote or sort the comments.
