When introducing members to kbin/lemmy don't mention the fediverse!

I introduced kbin to someone today who asked what the fediverse was. I answered for them of course, but it made me realize that the concept is still technobabble for most people. The average joe probably doesn't care or notice that server A is really talking to server B. Just have them find out on their own and if a mass...

Expecting someone to read your comments before responding to them is not "being impatient." It is not a reasonable question when that question was answered in the very comment to which they are replying.

Is that content being updated, though? Or was that community simply imported before syncing was off, and is now stale?

Bruh. That's what they just said in the comment that you didn't read.

The problem now is that this content is stuck in 2 days ago, when the issue with cloudflare started. When fixed, content will start being updated

Dear pre-migration Keebinetters, how can we NOT ruin kbin for you?

As a former redditor I am glad to have found a new "home" and I hope I'm not intruding. Nevertheless, we are all a huge migration that is bound to change how kbin works and we're bound to piss off some pre-migration Keebinetters. The fact you guys were here before and not in reddit makes evident you don't want this to become a...

This isn't just kbin, that's kinda the whole point. A name based on kbin is short-sighted, because kbin is only one small piece of this thing.

Instead of instantly doing the same shit we did on reddit 15 years ago, why don't we do things differently this time? We don't have to call kbin users anything. In any case, please god not "keebinetter."

It makes no sense. Without context, I would have no idea that "keebinetter" is supposed to mean "user of kbin." What's wrong with established naming conventions? And who reads "kbin" as "keebin"?

A name based on kbin doesn't make sense anyway, the whole idea is that this isn't just kbin.

Couldn’t agree more, old chap!

Same. All the juicy reddit drama is reported here, so I don't even have to give them the traffic. It'll be slow while communities develop, but I think we're well on our way.

I think people are just done in general these days. I sure am. I'm far less likely to stick around and listen to bullshit than I was a few years ago.

Now is the perfect opportunity to make a clean break, dude. I nuked 6 accounts on Friday, the oldest of which were over 12 years. Reddit's only value now is in the tech/automotive troubleshooting reference material, and even that utility is severely diminished with mobile dead.

No, it's time for reddit to die. Party's over.

Feel like the Dew boat is in need of some surgery.
