I've noticed that when I'm browsing microblogs on Kbin, I see very few favorites (upvotes) on posts even when there are tons when you look at them from Mastodon. For example, this post doesn't seem to have any favorites, but look at it from Mastodon, and you see over 120. In general, federation with Mastodon is really...

I'm interested in learning about the Fediverse! I wanted to know how these protocols and stuff works. I also want to learn about how to develop these amazing stuff.

Like you, I'm a passionate user of K.Bin but lately, I'm noticing that things are getting kinda stale around here. The most recent thread in this, the top-level magazine on K.Bin, is 4 days old. Many other top 25 magazines are also suffering from a similar lack of fresh content. I run /m/scifi and it's been continuing to grow...

Federated social network adds n00b-friendly features to the 'Fediverse'

I wondered if we would ever overcome the boundaries of centralized gaming platforms. I know there was a concept in the analog 80s—there were a lot of so-called play-by-mail games—that the game mechanics could be perfectly transformed into ActivityPub/Fediverse. The possibilities for federating games are endless, and it could...

LibRate is a new Fediverse project that aims to bring the functionality of RateYourMusic/Sonemic, IMBD and Bookwyrm to the Fediverse....

Or a thread to lemmy. Basically, how long does "federation" take?...

Guild Alpha is an initiative to coordinate and organize free software developers to work collectively. We have just concluded our first project by implementing account migrations for Bookwyrm

On kbin, I can see and subscribe to Peertube channels, but I never seem to get any content.

Updated the FAQ to include how Mastodon users can interact with /kbin from Mastodon.

I recently created an account on a new kbin instance. Is there an easy way to migrate my account to that new instance? I feel like this should be easy to find. As such I suspect that such doesn't exist yet, or I'm an idiot. Both are equally possible.

radio free fedi is consent, agency and artist celebrating community radio from the fediverse. We actively and openly present contributing artists' information with the hopes that you will drop-in, discover, and then LEAVE? That's right, RFF has no interest to be an end-point for hyper focused consumption. We also do not have the...

All social media sites interconnected — heaven or hell for creators?

EDIT: thanks to @Destragras, who pointed out after I posted that kbin does have a raw RSS feed at the bottom of the page for your reader. Example:...

I'm assuming most of us here want a large community. The reality is most people aren't into technology nearly as much as many of the people actually on the Fediverse. For other people who are into tech (like myself and a lot of people here), the federation technology itself being promoted as a core component of the appeal makes...

An announcement post has been made a week ago btw...

This blog post is about my experience with kbin, and some of the reasons why I love it, and some of the problems I encountered why using it. So apparently, if I go to add new link, that bypasses the error I encounter with posting threads or photos. At least I was able to somewhat solve one issue I have had posting from my main...

Let's say a user wants to join a dedicated /kbin instance for audio fiction. There are a variety of magazines on that instance, by genre, title, new releases, etc. It's a nifty theoretical instance. 😉...

I humbly ask your assistance, be it donations and or sharing this. I am working on a Fediverse platform that I believe can add tremendously to this place. Unfortunately, in order to bring this project to life I need funds. Please do not feel obligated, but donate out of the kindess of your heart. I know it is hard out there for...

I guess lemmy will continue the reddit tradition of basing its commentary off of the article's headline without reading the article.
