Symfony-based kbin is taking the Threadiverse by Storm
This article originally appeared on Symfony Station.
Thanks to the recent asshattery of Reddit and its douche CEO, open-source alternatives are blowing up. kbin is a Fediverse platform built with Symfony, API Platform, and Schema Generator 3 by Ernest Wiśniewski. And it’s the one to migrate to if you don’t want to support the c*nts leading Reddit.
FYI, another Fediverse alternative, Lemmy, has problematic leadership itself. Of course, there are instances on the platform not run by idiots. We recommend beehaw.org if you decide kbin is not for you.
As mentioned in my article, You say you want a revolution: help the free, fair, and friendly Fediverse destroy Big Social; kbin is a service that is like Reddit. It is an open-source content aggregator and, as a bonus, is a microblogging platform (like Mastodon). Better yet, it is built with Symfony and its excellent ecosystem partners!
You can create and moderate communities (Magazines), meet people with similar interests and develop your passions. We created one (see list of actions below) that covers Symfony, Drupal, and PHP.
