Kbin is the first Reddit alternative I looked at and i liked the UI so I stuck with it. I kind of assumed everything would be kbin. I thought I understood things. I thought it was kbin and lemmy separate but they federated and so I’d be able to access lemmy stuff from kbin. Which I guess is true. But now I’m confused. I look...
My muffin pan is rusty as hell (my own fault) and I failed to remove the rust even with scrub daddy and barkeepers friend. Usually I am cooking with liners, but I also make candy in them (ie marshmallows) and don't feel like putting anything sticky in a pan that dirty....
I've been working professionally as a software engineer for a bit over 20 years, and I was programming as a hobby for over a decade before that. Been in a number of different industries; you can find interesting problems to work on anywhere, but life for a programmer is always best at a company whose primary business is software.
How can I link related magazines from a magazine I've created, similar to how kbinMeta shows kbin as related? I don't see an option for it on the magazine panel.
Currently, each thread has the "Activity" link that shows publicly everyone that upvoted/favorite a thread. This is counter norm to many coming from Reddit and newer folks that expected otherwise. I think hiding the list should be high priority in next feature update(removal?) to encourage frictionless upvoting behavior....
It's possible to have just a Like/Dislike count and leave an empty array for the list of users when responding to requests against the federation endpoint. When pushing a Like/Dislike to other instances, it can be done with a random fake user account to preserve privacy.
Does anyone else have multiple accounts while looking for new reddit alts? So far I've got accounts on Lemmy, kbin, and Squabbles and I've been lurking on Raddle, Sqwok, and Tildes from the outside....
When I try to make requests against the kbin ActivityPub endpoints with the appropriate Accept header, I get an HTML response from Cloudflare instead of json+ld, and this obviously will break an ActivityPub federation client.
For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing....
I think it's because of the server overload some instances have been suffering. It might be affecting sync between instances in addition to the timeouts for user interaction.
I've noticed a minor issue when trying to subscribe to a Lemmy community. On the Lemmy instance, the link format for a Community starts with an exclamation mark ("!"), instead of the "@" used here and across other services like Mastodon....
Yeah, there's plenty that's confusing. I also see that I can follow mastodon and calckey users from kbin, but they don't seem to actually show up in my feeds.
As an additional note, it might be a good idea to alias /c/{magazine} to /m/{magazine} so it's compatible with the /c/{community} links as used on Lemmy. People have figured out that you can do a relative link of /c/community@instance.name that works regardless of what instance you're on, and it'd be nice for those links to still work if you're viewing from kbin.
I'm on kbin, and to sub to a community on a lemmy instance, I have to replace the ! with a @, because that's the actual underlying name, it seems. It's a bit confusing.
My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...
Is Kbin lemmy? I’m so confused!

Annoyed with my muffin pan

Are you a professional or a hobbyist? How did you get your start in programming? What type of project/s are you working on currently?
I'm always interested in hearing other's stories and what they're working on. Anyone care to share?

Recommend to have the "Upvote" or Favorites list be hidden.

Hey keebinetters and fediverse, what are your favourite kbin/fediverse magazines (communities)?
Lets make a thread to post our niches that we have found here. Big magazines are ok too....

MegaMek (megamek.org)
Does anyone use MegaMek to play? I don't play a lot of classic these days (my in-person crowd plays Alpha-Hexes) but I quite enjoy playing on MegaMek.

Why are communities on Lemmy.ml more full compared to the same on a different Lemmy instance?
For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing....

Why do communities start with an exclamation mark instead of a hashtag?
For example, https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy starts with an !, but why not start with a # symbol?
I like this significantly better than Mastodon
