As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it’s pretty hard to keep track. I’ve been browsing for about a month now, here’s a list of popular communities I’ve subscribed to that others would find interesting!...
Hi there, the Artemis private beta rollout has just started! @hariette will be emailing 50 signup sheet users, while @lilkev will be adding 50 users from Artemis Discord. The order will be based on the submissions to the private beta signup form, as well as general activity within the Artemis community....
If you are looking for assistance in trying to interact with pages found on instances other than the one on which you have an account, here is what I believe is available so far....
I have now released a significant new update for KUP that introduces a new experimental mobile UI and adds support for the coming release of the Kbin platform....
It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit....
There are some new features, collapsible comments, magazine sorting, the settings page which has an app icon switcher as well as a couple accessibility options!...
I'd also like to point out userscripts like the KBin Enhancement Script on greasyfork for collapsing comment threads and showing a user's home instance.
I know there have been a few of these posted recently, but I modified a few of the ones I found to add one additional feature: If the page you are on is already the remote version, but for the wrong local instance, to still update that to your preferred local instance....
Ive been excited to see folding phone screens for a few years now, but I’m reminded of the horrible creases that form over time (at least in the Samsung models I’ve seen)....
Often times when duckduckgoing (is that the right term for that) advice for products, I use the !ddgr key to directly search reddit for advice. But in a post-blackout world, I need to do this a lot less. So I want to know what the best places are to get reviews and advice for products that are human and not top 10 listicals.
Attached: 2 images First milestone in roadmap accomplished! We got a handful of alpha testers using #ArtemisApp 🥳 Next week is ironing it out before we start our incremental rollout to our testers.
Hi lemmings, I switched over from Reddit 10 days ago now but I couldn't find a mobile client that I was happy with with an experience similar to the Reddit experience I was used to. So I decided to build my own and I hope you will like it as well!...
Is there really a reason, for example, for there to be the distinction of "magazine" and "community"? When you're federating, the same features should be called the same, if close enough. That way everyone can talk with everyone about stuff and we all immediately understand each other....
Not really. A magazine is a collection of articles that all are about a certain topic. It is not that hard of a concept to grasp
Plus: The polish dev called his platform kbin = karabin = rifle, the contents of a rifle are stored in a magazyn = magazine. I actually would have loved if the dev had called threads "bullets" / pocisk to keep going with the theme.
EDIT: this info might be wrong, as @minnieo pointed out. kbin is just a reference to the linux sbin folder.
I am more confused with the upvote and down vote buttons on kbin: the upvote is actually favorite, the equivalent to reddits upvote is boost, the downvote seems not to have a real function besides counting the number.
Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted). I don't know how many are active because I don't monitor it, but once again, I greet all of you here :) In recent days, the traffic on the website has been overwhelming. It's definitely too much for the basic docker-compose setup,...

I have now released a significant new update for KUP that introduces a new experimental mobile UI and adds support for the coming release of the Kbin platform....
PSA: while upvoting exists, to get the "move closer to the top" effect that reddit's upvote had, you need to click boost
a small difference, but important to how people use the site
OC Unlike previous attempts at trying reddit alternatives (like Voat), kbin and much of the lemmyverse doesn’t seem to be plagued with extreme far right buffoonery.
It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit....

Since Kbin is new basically anyone here now would be considered veterans in a few years.
Just something a recently thought of.
Don't you think kbin has really gone downhill since the good old days?
I don't actually think that, but wanted to be the first to complain about it.

Best places to get human reviews/recommendations outside of reddit?

Kbin and Lemmy should come to a consensus on how to name stuff
