Exactly what the title says.

What has your experience been on any of those platforms? Which captures more of your time? Why?

I'm relatively new here but I've read a little on the reddit-like platforms. I (mostly) understand what's a fork of what or what some of the technical differences are, but I'm curious about the vibes and communities.

Lemmy - 99% positive. It has replaced reddit for me, except when I need to look up some obscure thing that only exists in a 10yr old thread

Kbin - heard of it and have seen some comments on lemmy saying they were there using Kbin (iirc)

Mbin - never heard of it

Beehaw - is it its own platform? I thought it was just another lemmy instance
