I like Minecraft

It was called Toaru Majutsu no Index Struggle Battle. I remember trying to play this a while back with Google Translate open on a second phone live translating my screen. Not a great gaming experience.

I'm curious, do you have any examples?

I'm not sure the Project Q fits in here. It doesn't play games on its own, just streams them. Sounds like it has more in common with the Logitech G Cloud.

I really wonder how much longer old.reddit.com will last. Surely that's "costing them millions of dollars" they could be saving as well, right?

The loss of third-party apps is the reason most of us are here. Makes sense that people are a bit excited that one of the favorites is following us here too haha.

It does show it on the sidebar. To access the sidebar on mobile, tap the hamburger menu in the top left and scroll down just a little. This keeps your place in a thread when you exit the hamburger menu, and you don't have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page anymore.

Sync was very big on customizability, so it did have the options to make your view incredibly compact as well. By default, it was always set to follow very closely with Google's design language, but you could get something very similar to the density of RIF as well.

An option for a left to right swipe that goes through all posts on a subreddit one by one with a big media-centric post view? I haven't used the official app, but if that's what you're looking for, it does! I can't think of a single way to view reddit that Sync didn't have support for.

Detective Pikachu 2

Is this a game or a new movie?

This feels like a forced reddit detox.

I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn't hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in...

It didn't even occur to me that I can see the downvote count, wow. That's how Reddit used to be too, so it didn't register as different, I guess.

There's no way this isn't related to the account creation spam exploit that was found recently.

Using 3rd party tools I don't understand, I just use the magazine search bar in Kbin itself. Searching for a term works just fine to get me to any magazines or communities I want to subscribe too, and I've found replacements for any subreddit I've cared to look for so far.

Looks like you figured it out by accident, this is a kbin thread lol. It's functionally identical to taking part in Lemmy threads, the complicated stuff is happening in the background as our instances communicate. Threads from all instances show up in the "All" tab and you can participate in them just the same as if they were from your own, for the most part. Since you're on a relatively large instance as well, you should be able to search for just about any community you want using Lemmy's own search bar and be able to find one without having to worry about if it's in another instance or not. Chances are, whatever instance its on has been visited by someone else before, so the link between the two already exists. I hope this helps!

It does! I've subscribed to tons of Lemmy communities like that. Lemmy's search does return Kbin results as well though, I just checked. I searched "News" from lemmy.world and found the Kbin.social News magazine I was looking for.

Just to check some more, I also tried searching for the Reddit Migration and Technology magazines and it found them both using only their names, no urls or @'s needed.

You should only need the url if you're the first person on an instance to subscribe to a community, after that it should be indexed for everyone.

This has to have something to do with the newly discovered API exploit to rapidly create accounts without any limits, right? Instances without captcha or email verification are vulnerable still, AFAIK.

Oh man, choosing an anime opening is probably cheesy, but Complication by Rookiez is Punk'd is actually one of my favorite songs even on its own.

UPDATED 22.01.23: List of Anime communities on the fediverse (PLEASE CONTRIBUTE)

Due to a quirk of how federation works, you cannot discover communities or magazines through search or on "all", until at least one other user on your instance has manually triggered federation to be "initialized" by searching for that exact community/magazine....

I'm starting up a magazine for A Certain Scientific Railgun on Kbin: @railgun

I'm not sure how to format a link for Lemmy, !railgun doesn't seem to work when I click it.

Kbin is so new compared to Lemmy that there were only like 2 instances a few weeks ago and the second one wasn't in English lol. There are more now but kbin.social is still the biggest and the sentiment stuck around.

atocci,
atocci avatar

Not yet! There is at least one in development, but the Kbin API hasn't been turned on yet since Kbin is so much newer than Lemmy, so it relies on scraping the web right now.
