WIth Reddit self-destructing, many have been wondering about alternatives on the Fediverse.
I do NOT recommend Lemmy. I have serious long-standing deep concerns about the developers, see here: https://mstdn.social/@feditips/106835057054633379
As far as I know, nothing has changed since then and Lemmy's issues remain.
Alternatively there's Kbin (https://kbin.social & https://kbin.pub) which seems less problematic. Regarding cryptocurrency issue: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediparty/pulls/97#issuecomment-663170
@feditips hope it won't be killed by SEC. They just murder every crypto based service
The Fediverse does not use any kind of cryptocurrency or blockchain.
