I keep seeing #lemmy and #kbin promoted as #reddit alternatives these days, but hardly any mention of #squabbles. Pardon my ignorance as someone completely new to the #fediverse, but I feel like this is a mistake.
Do people actually like being downvoted for their opinions or something? Do people actually like the ability to downvote others?
Squabbles doesn’t have that stupid karma system, and that alone puts it ahead of lemmy and kbin in my book.
(Don’t know about you, but I’m tired of the downvote system being used as a “I don’t like your opinion, so I’m going to be passive-aggressive and press this button in an attempt to censor you” function. Hivemind, Internet bullying is what it is. That’s one of the reasons why I came to Mastodon first.)
Also, Squabbles feels very fresh as well as wholesome and chill. I might just join in one of these times.
@MaJ1 indeed! I actually don’t miss the other place at all in truth. Don’t use Reddit much or Twitter at all and now over on #Squabbles and #Lemmy as well as #Mastodon

Squabbles is now Squabblr
Just an FYI about another Reddit alternative. New URL, too. I think they decided to change the name to avoid a copyright issue.
What are your opinions on the other Reddit alternatives like Squabbles.io, Raddle, Tildes, etc?
So obviously a lot of us are partial to kbin/Lemmy but have any of you explored the other alternatives like Raddle, Squabbles.io, and Tildes?...
