Creating an instance is not free and requires some effort (including a little research). Discord is free and creating a server is as easy as falling off a log. I don’t like Discord, but let’s be objective about why this happens.
I wonder how kbin will be supported.
They telegraphed this when they started forcing users to look at depressed buskers (in between ads for Jesus and pizza rolls) and making posts scream almost uncontrollably as you scroll by them. It’s like someone really wants sfw OnlyFans, or Twitch without the video games, or YouTube except the content isn’t very curated. Instagram but live? Anything but Reddit.
The post volume is still much lower, but that isn’t all bad, since the toxicity and quality isn’t as bad and unlimited scroll time isn’t healthy.
