@HandsHurtLoL Arguably you're not the magazine owner. The server admin is. That's kind of my point.

@JonEFive Multi-magazines are certainly desirable and would to some extent mitigate the data loss caused by an individual server going dark.

I guess the larger issue is if your 'home' instance is the one that goes dark, taking your personal account with it. Maybe it's in fact user account portability that's most important to work on. Assuming that multi-magazines happen fairly soon.

@Cat Hmm that doesn't sound correct. Would you be willing to say where in the world you are and provide a screenshot of what you see please?

@trynn Just looking again it does now seem to work on Kbin. I'll do a bit more testing and maybe edit the list if it works.

@Cat I wrote a bit more about it here: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/210618/kbin-world

Russia is concentrating "more than 100,000 personnel, more than 900 tanks, more than 555 artillery systems, 370 MLRS" in the Lyman-Kupiansk direction, according to Serhii Cherevatyi, spokesperson for Ukraine’s Eastern Military Command.

Cherevatyi said on television on July 17 that Ukrainian soldiers are currently holding the defense.

Kupiansk was liberated in Ukraine's surprise counteroffensive in Kharkiv Oblast in September 2022. Lyman, in Donetsk Oblast, was liberated just weeks later. https://kyivindependent.com/military-4/

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I don't think I can do it automatically (yet) but if there was another big spike or kbin.social went down for some reason it could be manually switched to another instance.

@pgetsos How about now?

@Ori I'm making the US regional, I forgot to add in a default for areas outside of the covered regions. It should work again now.

Have you had any bad experiences with people on Kbin yet? Can we do better than Reddit culture? (lemmy.world)

However, when reddit crapped the bed, by comparison, the threadiverse basically didn’t have an established culture. There was a handful of lemmy instances (we were one of them), but the only one of notable size was lemmy.ml. kbin didn’t even exist in any meaningful way until a couple of months before reddit died....

@FaceDeer Do we? Or do we have lots of small groups in the same space?

It does seemthat Mastodon culture is different to Threadiverse culture. I'm OK with that, Mastodon is a little earnest for my tastes. It would be nice if we could keep the worst of Reddit out of here with robust moderation

I wonder if we could/ should enforce moderation ratios in code? You need 1mod per 1k users for example. Your magazine is locked to new users until you add one.

@rikudou I'd also run into this. I run a bot on Lemmy.world and had to unmark it as a bot before it could interact with my Kbin instance

@fantasy95 The threadiverse. I made an aggregator to suit my tastes https://fledd.it/
