A few questions (well, I have like 20 but I’m just sticking to a few rn..) for a new mobile browser user:
How can I see local only content on kbin? I like the kbin content more rn and am getting a bit overwhelmed with all of the posts & instances/magazines I am not as interested in taking up the main feed. But with it being new to me I don’t wanna just stick to my subscribed magazines since there may be a bunch of new growing ones I’d wanna see on my feed. Any way to do this? Another way to put it, I’d like to unfederate my feed - take me back to yester-night
Is there any way to minimize the post or a comment tree? It’s probably the only feature that I haven’t seen on kbin.social that I really want. it’s taking me soooo long to get through some comment feeds and the posts do take up a bit of space on the main feed.
Is there a way yo subscribe to a post or “save” it? This is something I haven’t seen on any instance and while it’s not a major issue for me, I’d love to see it! I don’t always have the time to read a post but I wanna check back later. Any way to do that or do the people on Reddit who always comment “Commenting so I can save this post for later” finally have a leg up on me?
Thanks! Really enjoying kbin. Love this instance’s chill, community feel.
On mobile browser to limit the feed to local, it looks like you want to tap the top left "hamburger" menu (three horizontal lines), then the triangle icon to the left of the cog/gear and set federation status to off.
For minimizing/collapsing comment trees, I don't think that's been implemented in kbin yet (a small reason I'm on Lemmy instead tbh).
As to subscribing or saving posts, I can't say without being on there. The closest I can see from my outside perspective is boosting a post, which seems to act like favoriting/bookmarking in other contexts. I don't get the sense that it's intended to be used as a subscription/saving method, but it may have to do for the time being. Other kbin folks may have better insight here than me though.
Ah, that makes sense - I always see that uncolorized “fediverse” logo and think of it like the “Share” button on iOS (and various other icons). It works! That was easy. Now I can go sub to the instances on Lemmy/beehaw when I get the time.
Yep, agreed. They’re doing a lot rn so I get it. Overall I love the feel on Kbin mobile - maybe slightly smaller font size ?
Yes boosting works for saving a post!! I had heard that as well but didn’t see a spot to change it - tbh I haven’t looked much at my own profile and saw there’s a slider where you can move over to boosted posts/comments and it shows them!
