Dream_state,

This is the first post I've seen from kbin! Hello 👋

yes I've been seeing much more activity at least from lemmy world and beehaw. moreso than these past few days. I've actually had a "live" chat with some of them!

blaise,

I can see this (and am posting from) from my personal kbin instance, so it seems to be working!

Vortex,

Wonderful. Let the "Threadiverse" grow!

@artillect I'm not sure, I cannot see myself in Mastodon, and I cannot see the content of my Mastodon followers. Maybe the federation is yet on the way.

For now, I'm just preparing the groundwork, but first, I need to get some sleep :p

cowvin,

Lack of rest leads to bugs. Take your time.

You're the man!

binnin,

you're the man too, the exodus is on? at least the 'traffic is enormous holy shit' prompt on the right is a good sign.

someone's gotta help this guy though if it's just one dude and his server rack in his spare room

*edit works looks like. yea this is cool, pretty much reddit, nice

Keep up the good work man, but also take care of yourself.

It doesn't do anyone any good if you burn yourself out from lack of self care.

You are killing it. Keep it up and take care of yourself!

    The speed thing is interesting because for most of the time it's actually not unusable. It's a little delay here and there, but often fast or okay speed. it's only sometimes that it gets kinda unbearably slow. But IMO as long as it's up, I can deal with a slow speed here and there if it means I get to keep using kbin :). the dev/admin here is an absolute champ. kbin is awesome.

    So far I've used kbin entirely from my laptop web browser. I haven't tried accessing it with my phone just yet.

    RetroRandy,

    Definitely been more stable than reddit.

    I prefer "sometimes it's laggy/slow" over reddit's "btw we're gonna just die for an hour. lol you broke reddit, here's a pic of a cat unplugging a computer".

    artillect,
    artillect avatar

    I don't know why but the "you broke reddit" message always frustrated me. I didn't break shit lmao, it's the site that's broken

    Is slowly coming back, ernest is testing the waters, he said recently that he was working on upgrading the server and that federation will slowly come back.

    Just curious, are you guys exclusively using phone or computer, mix?

    I’ve only used my phone so far out of habit and it’s definitely kept me more limited in exploring

    onceuponaban,

    A mix of both, and on that note I'm thankful that this website actually works well on mobile.

    exohuman,

    I’m using my phone. I’ve added kbin to the home screen so it’s in its own app. I have logged in using the computer and I just prefer my phone.

    It seems to be slowly rolling back in. I still can't find my kbin account from my Mastodon account, but I can find my Mastodon account from my kbin account, for example. I also left a comment on a thread from lemmyworld@lemmy.world from kbin.social, but when I go to the actual Lemmy instance, I do not see my comment.

    yesss, the only thing i'm really hoping for is all my subscriptions from multiple fediverse platforms show up under one page.

    I found myself from ioc.exchange (mastodon). good sign

    I'm actually so surprised by how well it seems to be working already

    EnglishMobster,

    I'm still not able to subscribe to magazines on here from Lemmy, which is interesting. Maybe federation needs some time to catch up.

    Attempted_Render,

    Same. I've tried searching for kbin from lemmy, but nothing ever pops up. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or it just isn't fully working yet.

    EnglishMobster,
    EnglishMobster avatar

    Figured it out - you have to put the entire URL into the Lemmy search bar. For example, to find @modeltrains, you need to search Lemmy for https://kbin.social/m/modeltrains.

    Once one person subscribes, then the community will show up in searches for "modeltrains".

    Zana,

    What about for Lemmy from Kbin? Like on the Lemmy page it says to type !streetfighter into your search to get the result, but when I enter that in the Kbin search bar it errors out.

    EnglishMobster,
    EnglishMobster avatar

    For Lemmy -> Kbin, type @streetfighter@lemmy.world in the search at the top.

    Zana,

    Yo, you rock! Thank you so much, friend!

    Nepenthe,

    This would insinuate kbin is the only one requiring the whole URL, and it seems like that would severely hamper the discovery of only kbin magazines from non-kbin instances. Which is like. Most instances in existence. :/

    Unless you mean the discovery is fine and it's only how you have to subscribe to them, which I can't check because I have no interest in setting up other accounts atm

    EnglishMobster,
    EnglishMobster avatar

    IMO, Lemmy is the one that's incorrect by requiring the URL. Kbin does the same thing Mastodon does by having it use the @ instead.

    Looks like a one way traffic right now.

    TheYang,

    not really, while apparently there is read access for other instances, I couldn't get a post to this thread from lemmy

    artillect,
    artillect avatar

    Dang, well it looks like it's moving in the right direction regardless. Glad to see that progress is being made!

    Zana,

    Is this why when I search for Lemmy instances from Kbin it just shows error?

    BreadDog,

    Hmm, yeah, looks like my posts aren't showing up on beehaw. Curious what the actual state is.
