I don't understand why people still want to use reddit instead of moving to Lemmy or Kbin (sh.itjust.works)

Most people aren't even thinking of moving to reddit alternatives. Users have a lot of power in this situation. Just move your community to Lemmy or Kbin. It's not that hard.

One thing I've seen get in the way is everyone wants their own instance rather than to setup just one community on an existing instance.

I don't think you understand the benefits of the Fediverse. With multiple sites you have alternatives to go to if the site goes to shit. Lemmy and kbin sites also appeal to different tastes, rather than having to endure one size fits all mentality. Being federated means you can subscribe to and access and post on other federated sites from kbin. No more monopoly abuse.

I agree, this is by far the biggest problem. I understand federation, and it does have some advantages, but it splits up an already small community. Before the protest, if I wanted to get some quick opinions from a niche domain, all I had to do was google a few keywords and makenit search only reddit. How would I achieve that on fediverse I don't know. How do you guys search for content here?
