I'm using SmartTube on my TvBox and live in fear it will stop working xD
There's also a component for foobar2000 (yes, I'm GenX) called Youtube Source. You can search content, add results to foobar playlists and see the video (embedded in the skin or on a different window). Sometimes the video doesn't load but restarting foobar it's usually enough.
Alright I really thought I had cracked this nut, but some of these are still eluding me. I went on a run of subscribing to a bunch of remote communities and felt like I had really mastered the fediverse in theory and in execution... then I was humbled....
AFAIK it happens because old posts are usually updated only when they are searched (I guess to avoid importing too much stuff) and last time I tried you just needed to search the lemmy address but I tried again and right now it doesn't seem to work.
Sometimes it takes time to sync, so maybe they'll show up in a while but if they don't it could be a bug/federation issue.
I remember being on Usenet but at the time I think the average user would have little to no knowledge on how the system worked. You just had to choose a server after reading a few guides and there was no rush.
I like how federation works but right now people come here with different expectations and when it occurs in waves I think it's too stressful.
I'm not sure, because when you create a new post you have to select the magazine and that's already enough to end in the right place so people that don't care about federation in theory don't have an incentive to use hashtags.
Am I interpreting correctly that if I were to, say, make some random comment about being sick as a dog in a microblog, that might get picked up by accounts interested in dogs? If I understand that, that seems like a disastrous oversight.
I guess the sentence you wrote would be fine if you don't use the hashtag dog but even if you did I'm still not sure it would get picked by magazine fetching that hashtag because you are already posting from "inside" a magazine.
I'm not sure if this is fine but since it wasn't active on every page I've added an asterisk on row 7 like this: // @match https://kbin.social/*
and it seems to work.
@bouddeun top right, select "Subscribed" from the drop down menu near your nickname. If you're redirected, click again on microblog and it should work.
@bouddeun oops, sorry, I misinterpreted. Right now I'm not sure if it's possible because the focus seems to be filtering content from other platforms but I think if it's not already available it's one of those options that will probably be added.
I have been trying to get access to my feed for most of the day, and I am just getting timed out messages and no feeds. Anyone else part of this instance? Can you confirm if it is alive....
Ho scritto un post nuovo sulla community di jerboa. E stavo già per riscriverlo maledicendo il telefono perché, nascondendo i messaggi letti, ti nasconde pure i tuoi e non lo trovavo più 🙁
For example: I tried to search all 3 communities from sopuli.xyz featured in this comment https://kbin.social/m/lemmy@lemmy.ml/t/2938/Which-subreddits-would-you-most-like-to-see-on-Lemmy/comment/6790/...
edit: problem is I'm not sure how to search for old discussions/posts to import them here. I tried with a few posts in the last few days but it didn't work like it does on masto/misskey. Searching the user sometimes seems to work.
I tried another one and it works, sorry. When I wrote the 1st one earlier it didn't (maybe lag?) and I thought the boost was the reason why it was reshared.
It has been an interesting week in the fediverse, with some events that will play out over longer timeframes. Conversations about defederation, but also a growth in tech projects that go beyond microblogging, and the continuation of developer organisation. Besides that, it took around a month for Mastodon to add another million...
On #lemmy the first page is usually set on "local" and to see the federated content you have to switch to "all".
On #kbin it's (often?) the opposite. To switch to local content, select "Federation status: OFF" in the sidebar (federation icon, near the settings one).

Please help with the basics of subscribing to remote communities. (Many ways to do it wrong, included)

Beehaw is defederating from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works, two large lemmy instances
See Beehaw's Post to find out why
Looks like federation is working again!
I just saw some posts from beehaw.org and lemmy.world, looks like we're back in business!

What daily games, like Wordle, do you play regularly?
Daily, I play Wordle and 7 Little Words when I first get up, but I was wondering what other types of quick games like that that people play regularly.
Search for remote magazines/communities not always works.
