I want to like Kbin. I really do. But it’s just not the same. There are no apps. The format is not reader-friendly. Usability is way low.

I’ve been trying for a month and I just can’t get into it the way that I got into Reddit.

What do we need in order to make Kbin more … friendly? Do we need developers? Moderators? More content? What? I’m legit serious here.

Is there already a discussion about all of these issues?

I hate Reddit. I joined /r/place and supported the 3rd party apps memorial that is up there. And that’s probably about it for me. I confess that I may have checked the home page a few times over the past month but every time…I remember why I hate it so much. It’s full of spez spit all over the place.

On Slashdot, folks from the /r/canning subreddit shared their experience about being booted and locked out. Just terrible, terrible stuff from an evil overlord determined to destroy anything that resembles “good”.

And there’s a lot of enshittification going on today.

  1. Climate Change - jfc have you seen the boiling lakes?
  2. Reddit
  3. Work - bosses everywhere are legit going nuts on employees now
  4. Movies - Disney, HBO, Netflix, Paramount just wholesale murdering good movies and shows. Leaving only shitty ones up.
  5. Politicians - I mean…just look. It’s shit.
  6. Economy - Income - shit. Expenses - oh shit.
  7. Food - Ukraine - shit. Crop yields are down - oh shit.
  8. Health Care - Pharma companies turning life into shit.

It’s all going to shit. What are we going to do?
