I don’t know man, but I feel like I’m supporting a maniac CEO with every second I spend on reddit.

      same -I even removed the bookmark from firefox. used to be the first one on the right, now it’s my email or something.
      Still trying to figure out if I want to lemmy or kbin.
      Lemmy seems more popular, but the dynamic feed is disruptive sometimes like I’ll be reading a headline or looking at a thumbnail blown up by Imagus extension and then it shifts suddenly.
      Kbin is more stable from that perspective, but I somehow have -2 rep points (that I care about for some stupid reason) despite having (so far) more ups than downs on my few comments. OH and the very frequent 503 errors on random pages, but I suspect that’s growing pains from an enormous influx

      -still haven’t quite removed rif from the phone though. might check on it 7/1 and see if it works or not

        Right now, kbin is using boosts for the positive and downvotes for negative reputation points. I think there’s a proposal to change to upvotes for the positive points.

        About the -2 rep issue. I’ve found that what looks like the upvote button is actually the favourite button. The “Boost” button at the bottom seems to be the one that actually gives rep points. I think the buttons need to be swapped as it feels kinda misleading as to what they actually do at times
