Honestly, I agree. I am not tech savvy, I am actually a pretty basic user of the internet. I just followed the link provided in a post, registered on Kbin, and started enjoying it.

Now, Lemmy did give me more trouble, and it's the reason I am on Kbin, but even then it was more a matter of having to wait for confirmation. By the time it came I found I preferred Kbin "graphics" (don't know how to explain it better).

Really can't understand what people find so difficult. Even the fediverse isn't a difficult concept: you sign up in one site, you can see posts from other sites too. Simple as that. There's nothing complicated if you're just an user and not someone who has to make it work

Honestly I would find this extremely infuriating

This is the best meme I have seen this week! You won the internet!

TIL: The faulty rivets on the Titanic meant it was doomed to sink. If they rivets were properly made it would have survived hitting the iceberg. (www.nist.gov)

Another note, it likely could have survived hitting the iceberg had it not turned to avoid it (it had no chance of avoiding it but turning meant the rivets took the full load of the collision).

This is indeed very interesting, and definitely something I didn't know!

YSK - X percent of Y is equal to Y percent of X. So, if you want to find out what 7% of 50 is, you could instead find out what 50% of 7 is, which is 3.5. This means that 7% of 50 is also equal to 3.5.

Why YSK: It helps when calculating percentages. If you want to find out what 2% of 20 is, do 20% of 2 instead and you'll get 0.4. So, 2% of 20 also equals 0.4....

how would a dumbass old fart of a windows user like me be able to transfer the contents of subreddits to lemmy with the least amount of effort possible?

i have two subreddits, one of them has videos for content and the other one is more based around discussion about the links that get posted, so i realise i might have to do two different processes, and i'm not getting paid sooo .....

Unfortunately I have no idea how you could do it, but I upvoted, boosted and commented to make the tread more visible!

Honestly, I consider myself mostly a normy, at least when it comes to technology, and I am having a blast on Kbin!

Pitching in from Kbin! Thank you for opening this community in the Fediverse!

Spam and porn are flooding kbin already

There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren't being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of...

Honestly, I hope all of the Fediverse's instances get indexed!

I'm not a native English speaker, so I probably messed up the saying 😅

Yes, I am saving and yes, I have also seen the option on the kbin settings... I really think it's a bug
