I'd say this might be true for programs, but as long as you download movies, shows and music I'd assume it's fine as long as you use common sense.

But not run by the original owners. And the current team is really shady. I wouldn't trust downloading an .exe from there.

This reaffirms my wish to go back to monkey.

Didn't know about this site, thanks

Yeah, I love name recognition! That's definitely one of the things I've missed from old-school forums. I've never felt content aggregators (or well, reddit) really replacing forums , but I definitely feel it more with MBin and Lemmy. Good input otherwise.

It's true that there is a difference between e.g., FB and anonymous social media, but they can still be heavily addictive. You can still want to be "in the know" for example, or just sit around mindlessly browsing instead of dedicating yourself to more worthwhile tasks that you'd like to do, or just sit around and refresh the notification page.

Thanks for this awesome app, and probably being the only mbin-app out there (if I'm not mistaken?).

[–] Treedrake@fedia.io 5 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Is this the only mbin app out there?

[–] Treedrake@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

Great arguments, thank you!

Haha I definitely appreciate /m/FloatingIsFun, also great stylesheet

Lemmy-centric, I don't know... I've been using Kbin and Mbin all along. I'm even posting this from fedia.io. But yes, I admit to feeling that the more users a service has, the more attractive it should be. And I was also thinking from a sync POV, as there has been problems before between the services (which doesn't seem to happen now as much luckily).

At least earlier there have been quite a few problems with federation not working between KBin and Lemmy, posts and comments not syncing. It does seem better now but at the same time it's hard to know if you're missing a few comments or threads or whatnot.
