This is a great start. I think a first goal should not be to replace big tech, but the create thriving alternatives. You should not have to feel that you are missing out by not using facebook, twitter, instagram, reddit etc. And with Mastodon/Lemmy/kbin we are getting there even if it is very very early still.
I think kbin is pretty nice as it is and I am sure the developers will make it even better in the future.
A really nice bonus is the lack of advertisements on the platform (or maybe I am blocking it, I dont know?). compared to official reddit it feels very refreshing to only have content to focus on.
it’s sad that replaceable batteries got extinct in just a few years. In my opinion replaceable battery is a great selling point and I know I’m not the only one so I’m surprised that the market are not able to provide this…
Especially now a days when phones have stagnated and having a 5 year old phone is nothing strange anymore.
I used to have a replaceable battery to my old LG G3 and it was great to just swap batteries and directly having a fully charged phone. Now I always have to have power banks or try to charge up during train rides or whatever and having to worry that I don’t have enough juice

Its understandable that (some) people have this view, they just want to enjoy the content they are used to.
But what I think they are missing is that there are a lot of people that put in a lot of effort in making free content to everyone else, and when a large group of the contributors are upset then this user’s “free content” gets worse.
As a user you just have to accept that everyone will not have the same view as you and move on to another place where you can look at funny pictures or whatever.
Some establishments yes, but in most places I would not smell alcohol unless someone spilled it all over the floor. It’s anyway much less compared to smoke that will stick to your clothes
