3·1 year agoI will have no disparaging of frames, thank you very much.
1·1 year agoUsually word of mouth - but that can be either from people I know (friends, fellow online people), or sometimes it might be buzz from the media. Usually that’s in the form of CBC’s Canada Reads. I don’t often pick things up based on retailer suggestions.
An Internet … problem
Yeah, that’s 100% it. On the Internet in 2023, everyone needs to be right or win with their comment. It’s off-putting when you’ve been on the Internet longer than Gen Z has been alive.
off-topic but since you mentioned kbin: I’m using both platforms right now (beehive/lemmy and kbin)…from what I’m seeing so far I really prefer lemmy’s implementation of pretty much everything. Kbin itself is not any more or less complicated to sign up and start posting, but its organization is definitely more convoluted. Speaking of threads vs. microblogs etc. I read a FAQ posted there and it barely cleared things up for me.
