Where we're going, we don't need chair legs.

I want this on a T-shirt.

That was an excellent EIL5

I've been toying with the idea of getting one of those. Would you do it again? Do you have any regrets or maybe wish you'd installed it on something else?

I don't think there's an app-app yet. I've read on here that kbin is fairly new, while lemmy has been around a lot longer.

What i've noticed is that each one is lacking something. I kind of like the layout of lemmy a bit more, but it doesn't have the same capability of following people or communities from all over, and I don't think you can follow users at all like in kbin and Mastodon. But kbin doesn't have any way that I can find to save posts, which is something use a lot.

Same here!

I don't think it's exactly the same on lemmy -- you can't seem to sub to an entire instance, for example -- but there's at least some similar capability.

For instance, I'm on kbin right now, so when I click your user name I go to a kbin version of your lemmy.world profile page: https://kbin.social/u/@[email protected]. It has the option to block or follow you, which should show your posts in my kbin feed. As far as I know, Lemmy can't do the same with kbin users. I haven't found a way to follow other lemmy users either, except on kbin.

But on lemmy you can sub to lemmy or kbin communities, even if they're on other instances. On lemmy.world, RedditMigration has the address https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]. So it seems to be a community there that just pulls in from the original at https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]. (No idea why it's like this.)

So if your main instances was, say, beehaw.org, you would search for !RedditMigration and you'd see that community pop up in the results. You can subscribe to it that way and it would be in your subs list on beehaw. The same should be true of kbin magazines/communities.

It looks like each community on lemmy has their address posted next to the subscription box, so you can paste it into your lemmy.world search and sub to anything you want regardless which instance it's on.

In theory this is going to work (maybe?) with other fedi services like Mastodon, but I suspect the admins and devs have to build a lot of things, so it may not be around for awhile.

Still works for me. You can search by the post title:

YSK that Kbin can subscribe not only to magazines and communities, but entire instances.

It was on m/kbinMeta

@Arotrios had a really good post about some of the stuff you can do with kbin to follow other communities or even entire instances across the fediverse.

I don't know if this is quite the same thing, but @kersploosh was waging a war on bot accounts. Maybe they have some inside or can come up with something in conjunction with the admins.

Edit: that's @kersploosh @sh.itjust.works in case the one here is someone else.

I was in the same position. I looked into it a little bit and my TL;DR version is that tankies are people who in general are apologists for the Russian and Chinese governments using fascistic and dictatorial measures. I'm guessing that more broadly speaking this could apply to supporting any government that uses violence against its own people, but it usually comes up in the context of those two countries.

When I was a kid in the '70s and '80s I can remember the front grill and windshield of our car being absolutely plastered with bugs. I mean like power wash to get them off plastered. Today it's surprising if I have more than a handful of smudges on my windshield.
