I've honestly been thinking of a switch. Have you heard of any good experiences with those?

I have been using both Mbin (Kbin before it) and Piefed quite a bit, and both are very good.

If you want microblogging capabilities and prefer the UI, Mbin is the way to go. If you want the most robust Reddit-like experience with a bunch of quality of life improvements over Lemmy but only one UI and no apps as of now, PieFed is gold.

I think PieFed is my favourite for the time being, as I like the UI and don't care about apps.

As a MBin user, I think it depends on what you're looking for:

  • If you want to be able to follow and interact with Mastodon users, and microblogging side of the Fediverse in general I recommend Mbin

  • If you only care about groups (communities) and interacting with them I recommend Piefed
