Olha, estou confortável com usar pelo navegador então nem fui atrás de aplicativos.
Mas ao que tudo indica, o Kbin permite gerar um feed RSS, então pelo menos publicações podem ser vistas em outros serviços.
E imagino que, tal como a concorrência, tenha um API público próprio, então talvez tenha aplicativo próprio também.
On the plus side, this gives people plenty of time to tackle their ever increasing backlogs, and also to give companies more reasons to put out a functional product in order to compete with all the kilometric backlogs people already have.
Yes. ( also just remembered there are some mix up in naming conventions across the fediverse… "<.< )
Just checked your instance, and this page seems like a good start:
https://lemm.ee/communities?listingType=All&page=1
Then you can filter pages around, subscribe to pages as they pick your interest, etc.
Then, if it’s anything like Lemmy World about sorting (can’t verify since I don’t have an account in your instance), you can visit https://lemm.ee/?dataType=Post&listingType=Subscribed&page=1&sort=New to check all your subscribed contents, and by newest (I recommend “newest” because I get the impression posts start repeating themselves after a while with other sorting features).
If I may suggest, start following federated pages too. Each social media has its niche, and now, with federation that allows direct communications, it’s the perfect opportunity to find a social media whose features you like (which you seem to have already gotten), and curate your contents so it’s perfect for you without depending solely on your chosen social media’s niche.
Dunno how your instance fares regarding moderation, but looking at the modlog of my instance, Kbin Social, moderators seem to act only against disruptive behavior, like spam and gratuitous offenses:
https://kbin.social/modlog
And I haven’t seem people complaining elsewhere, like on Discord, about Kbin-related instances, unlike certain Lemmy-related instances, so it appears to be fine for now.
On that matter, if you haven’t dug on the topic yet and if I may suggest, look for Linux systems (“distros”) with either the Xfce or Wayland desktop environments, since they’re some of the lightest around (Xfce being the most stable of the two, but Wayland seems pretty promising already).
Likewise from Brazil and likewise would rather see whatsapp gone from my devices. Sadly, I still need it for work and other official matters. Still, I’m slowly but surely abandoning whatsapp, by either convincing people I talk to to migrate to other, less anti-consumer services, migrating myself to sister groups or alternatives in other services, and/or abandoning a group or chat altogether. And all the while being vocal about it by raising my concerns about whatsapp (just saying “I don’t like it and you should move too” can be pretty counter-intuitive with our countrymen). Hopefully, this way, I can drop it altogether once it becomes clearly irrelevant.
But this reminds me I haven’t deleted/left any chats for a few days, so I’ll take the opportunity to do just that.
Perhaps the reasoning changes from person to person, but for me, it goes along the lines of this image posted, oddly enough, on a memes page:

The majority of posts on Reddit are also like that. Perhaps a curse of a feed-oriented forum (or whatever this type of social media is called)
If you absolutely must get something from Google Play, I suggest Aurora Store, which acts as an alternative frontend for Google Play, so you don’t have to have GApps installed.
If you have use for command line programs, Termux, a terminal emulator, is a great option, and it also works with root.
For reading eBooks, I also have a recommendation, Librera Reader (but I’ll check the OP’s recommendation too).
Material Files and Simple File Manager are great file browsing tools. But if you need a file browser for root specifically, I recommend Material Files specifically.
I use LibreOffice’s Calc for tracking stuff.
…yes, adding data is a chore. But at least I don’t have a limit on platforms to add.
This is just a hypothesis, since I never dug on the subject, but considering sparkling beverages overall, at least in my side of the globe (Brazil), use carbon dioxide, which, when mixed with water, becomes carbonic acid, which, when mixed with basic compounds, becomes salt, I’d imagine sparkling water would be a good way to increase salt levels in the body, which could perhaps be bad in your case, since you need water for medical reasons.
I use the Android app Librera Reader, since it’s the best one I could find that is officially distributed outside of the Play Store (de-google, anyone?).
You can find the APK on both F-Droid and GitHub.
For ebooks, since Librera doesn’t seem to be able to validate DRM (thankfully), I buy ebooks in DRM free formats, meaning I usually pend to Itchio, IndieGala, Fanatical, Humble Bundle, Story Bundle, etc.
Iirc, Nebula is one of those NFT video hosting sites I found, so not much of an option. And regarding lack of contents, all social medias start like that, so I don’t see it as a problem per se, since it can potentially still grow.
That’s pretty interesting, the hosting with a template HTML file, tbh.
All social medias start slow, unless you have a parent company to vouch for you, e.g. Threads with Facebook, so the current population doesn’t sound like a major issue. And Odysee was one of those NFT platforms I found.
The only one I knew (before checking the other comments lol) is WinLaunch:
