So I heard about the concept and it appealed. Its like when I heard stallman talk I started looking for gpl in everything I could. The first time I heard about it was mastadon but I never liked twitter and the format did not appeal to me. When the api thing happened with reddit there was more talk and I found there was the reddit alternative in kbin and lemmy. I like kbin better and went with it and when earnest dropped away I went to mbin as that made kbin kinda abandonware. Mbin was nice enough but did not have the energy that earnest brought to kbin but piefed came out and it kinda had that energy. So I went to that. I do miss moist though.
