When I was leaving Reddit I heard of Kbin (which I do have an account in and still check all the time), raddle.me, Tildes, squabbles, and I think another. So many!
I love kbin but being a one man show and lacking API it was never really going to be the replacement. I am, however, glad to have it as one of a handful of smaller alternatives and a sort of cousin to Lemmy.
If it doesn’t have an API, how do I still see posts from it in my feed? Do you mean it integrates with the fediverse, but only has a web interface for now (ie. no apps)?
there were other options?
One that I don’t hear about is raddle.me, a centralized alternative.
I tried it but the mods were huffy

During the exodus I remember I wanted to try Tildes, but it was closed off from new users. (I don’t even understand why it was recommended.)
Hello from /Kbin
Kbin is just lemmy+mastadon iirc

Yeah, the latter. There is an API, but I think it was only released in the last month or so. I’m not sure to what extent it’s complete.
A kbin instance can be downloaded as a PWA, and it works decent.
As for third party apps there’s Lunar, iOS only. Haven’t tried it.
There was also Artemis. It had the best UI/UX design I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately the dev appears to have vanished.
Before the API, I think they were web scraping.
It has an API, has for a while now
Takkun?
There is Kbin:-)
