Hi, I'm Leafy and I'm a recovering reddit addict.

Interacting with Lemmy as a Kbin user

Can anyone direct me to a Stickie or FAQ with directions how to use Kbin? U/dannecrose put together some useful information on https://kilioa.org/m/kbinfaqs/t/725, but I have questions about interacting with other instances, in particular Lemmy. Is it possible to upvote/downvote, comment and create threads in the Lemmy instance...

I think you can only do that after you subscribe to a community. Copy the community id (change ! for @) and paste it into the kbin search bar. You should be able to subscribe and interact with posts that show up in your subscribed feed after that.

That's odd. Did you subscribe to the community?

It should be in there with a kbin interface for you to interact with as usual.

@Anon137 loves the one they're with and there's nothing wrong with that! Lamy Safaris are pretty good starter pens, so it's no wonder.

@jeruyyap Yay and welcome! Love your choices in pens btw. Resin and acrylic pens have this lovely marble like look that is always striking.

They're good pens! Very solid daily carries.

Oof, the ones that got away. Especially that gold nib!

But what you said about the Phileas M really struck me, because fountain pens do have a way of habituating to its user, doesn't it? It really isn't so simple to replace because then you have to break it in again.

Pictures please! I have a weakness for Sailor's designs.

JetPens strikes again! I should know, they convinced me too. It's the reason why I've been eying a Hobonichi for when my current journal runs out of pages, so I appreciate your rec.

Why Fine, if I may ask? TWSBI is a Taiwanese brand and I thought all the Asian pens tend to be finer than European brands.

Pilot VP is the Vanishing Point, yes? I've never used a retractable nib before, how smoothly does it write?

Yeah that's one of the reasons I was drawn to them. I am also a sucker for all the cute collabs they do with media properties like Pokemon and Sanrio.

@driftwoodmalaysian Come come, I gib you upvote!

The post vs articles thing is super annoying to me. I sort of understand the reasoning for having that Microblog thing because it makes it easier to federate with Mastodon-like instances. I just wish it didn't make posting threads confusing.

@androfire Love this! Maluri and Cochrane stations are also connected by a walkway. So you can start in Velocity and take the train home from MyTown.

LeafyPasserine,

Agreed. Better to walk from Hang Tuah monorail station.

@toga I need pics, stat! To drool over. Or maybe I'll make a new thread about favourite pens to make it easier for you.

No, but seriously let's get some life into this magazine. Show off your collection with pride!

@ojima No shame in that. All fountain pens are good fountain pens as long as you love them.

I have my fair share of cheap plastic pens and sometimes you just need something light, y'know?

@Larvitar Oh those are some gorgeous pens!! Though the lamy is a bit too hot pink for me.

Is the Tsukuyomi by Wearingeul? Because it looks like it shades very nicely.

@rodhlann This is the way. A pen for every occasion!

I appreciate your commitment to the perfect ink vessel! And well you should, Pilot Iroshizuku inks are so beautiful and they dry quick enough for this southpaw.

I gotta ask which you like better: Noodler's Purple Martin or Pilot Iroshizuku Murasaki Shikibu?

LeafyPasserine,

That's like 2 weeks worth of pens! I like that.

LeafyPasserine,

Hi semua! Are we still monyets on kbin or have we evolved into something else?

LeafyPasserine,
LeafyPasserine avatar

There is no way we can lose this time. We already have two people against taugeh.
