Maybe I just miss Reddit is Fun, not Reddit, but I still have RiF installed (I just can’t delete it) and it still “works”. I can’t sign in or participate, but fuck I miss browsing everything. I’ve definitely replaced it with Kbin, but opening the RiF app just gives me sadness. Fuck spez.

    So as far as I know Tildes is owned by Spectria which is a Canadian non-for-profit corporation.

    It apparently was created, because they didn’t like what was happening with reddit.

    I don’t know how easy/hard it is to change it to for profit though.

        From what I found tildes was created in 2018 (https://gitlab.com/tildes/tildes/), lemmy was created in 2019, kbin I think started in 2023.

        Edit: I just noticed that tildes is under AGPL, and doesn’t look like they don’t require contributors to surrender their copyright, so it means the code will need to stay open source even if something would change with the company.
