I want to try Tildes once /u/talklittle releases rif (TIF?) for it. But I'll keep using Lemmy too. I see no reason to limit my options.
I've really been enjoying tildes - I'd say it's less casual than Lemmy or reddit however. People there generally write incredibly long and detailed posts. Lemmy seems a bit meme-y already
Maybe I'm just not in the right communities but I have to agree, except a few nuggets of gold here and there I'm missing more engaging discussions and detailed posts by experts. I hope we start seeing more of that.
I'd love to give Tildes a go, the content seems a lot more "grown up" with a more substantial discourse. But its still invite only shrug
Finally got my invite to tildes. It’s … fine. I think the governance is sensible, but I think governance also has high potential in the fediverse. Same though, that I prefer to keep doors open rather than pick something.
What is tildes like? Is it worth it to try and hunt down an invite?
If you’ve been on Reddit and Lemmy, it is very familiar. But there is a lot less garbage for the moment. Doesn’t really seem to be any shitposting. Which is both bane and boon. Their philosophy is pretty respectable.
