Yes, my Mastodon username mentions bunnies, yet the bunny avatar is on this profile, and the Lemming which might indicate Lemmy (this is Kbin, but I am subbed to Lemmy communities) is over there. Don't question.

I think it's a bug. Can't see it in the tracker so it might be worth reporting?

The Calckey thing is because it's a thread. Calckey (I've not used it so just guessing) probably puts the title as the CW, and the body below.
If you post a microblog you'll get just the text.

There's a notifications section (in user settings) which has options for "response to my comments". They were all off for me by default. I do get notifications but I got a couple this morning for things I'd already clocked had been replied to yesterday, so they are seriously delayed atm.

Let me see if I have this straight -- I'm getting a bit of a headache.

If you make a new link, article, or photo {on kbin} it will become a thread in a magazine which you must choose. Replies to that thread are comments and go to everyone following that (thread? magazine?)

If you make a new post it will become a non-threaded {untitled} microblog entry in a magazine which you must choose. Replies to that microblog post will be replies and go to everyone mentioned by username.

If the latter is true, I wonder why there isn't a hidden "microblog" magazine for microblog entries. Why are they forced to belong to a certain magazine? If the user isn't subbed to any mags what shows up in the "select a magazine" dropdown?

{Edited to add missing words and this: the interface said "thread created successfully" (or similar) and calls this a thread in the right sidebar. At that point I legit couldn't remember if I made it as a post or article. It appeared under microblog. The profile overview shows it as a post and not a thread. }

@fratermus The microblogs are mostly for Mastodon, as you can't post a new thread from there. The "default" microblog is "random".

@MastodonMigration The cover image is a bit dodgy as it shows up different on desktop and mobile. Mine is 1024x297 and it chops off the top and bottom on desktop, but the two sides on mobile

Linen (https://linen.dev) can sync Discord chat, it doesn't have voice or video capabilities though but at least backs up the important content.

I posted this in the microblog but maybe this is a better place to ask. I'm trying to follow a botsin.space account and it's not working, also that account can't follow a magazine (just goes to "follow requested"), so I think it's blocked?

chris,

You are a genius! If I untick "this is a bot account" then everything works as it should. @jerry is this something which can be fixed?

@chris@fedia.io avatar

Is there any reason why I can't follow botsin.space accounts from here (or, actually, follow here from botsin.space)? I know being a bot instance it might be problematic, but I wanted one of my bots to federate certain hashtags to here to add its posts to a magazine (I believe that should work), but if I can't follow it I don't think this will work?

Mysterium - identify the suspect by looking at abstract cards given by a ghost (goes up to 7 players I think; use the original Ukrainian rules!)
Shikoku - interesting movement game, goes up to eight players
Eclipse - epic space exploration and battles, nine players with the expansion (I've never played it nine players, it would probably take about a week and need a banqueting table to put it on)

chris,

With the Cities expansion it goes up to eight too. Pretty simple to explain and as turns are simultaneous the extra player doesn't add any time (unless they are particularly slow)

Sooooo media storage in fedia.io has been working for maybe 2 hours and we already crossed the 1GB mark. This is gonna be wild
