@ernest I think you might be interested in this: https://kbin.social/m/geddit@geddit.social/t/64769/Call-to-Lemmy-instance-admins
Something is going on on these instances and we might experience massive spam coming from them.

Why do some Lemmy community not show up in magazine search (others on same instance do)?

Yesterday I learned about https://lemmy.ca/c/ontario_community_directory (edit: I got a wrong link somewhere -- this one should have been https://lemmy.ca/c/ontario_index) and my local city sub of https://lemmy.ca/c/waterloo. I can't find them in magazine search (eg, https://kbin.social/magazines?q=waterloo). They're not brand...

I personally saw someone working on fixing the links so you can just click on them, hopefully we get some form of autosearch when the magazine is not federated

I migh be able to help with these types of links, look for the kbin link extension, it's available for Firefox and chrome.
It's an extension I made to help with this situation.

I'm just glad to be witnessing this from this cozy place, glad to be with you guys...

๐Ÿ“ขEntire mod team on r/mildlyinteresting (and more subs) removed and locked out of their accounts after changing their rules upon community's request. (They're also switching subs BACK to SFW)

EDIT: GO DM MODS OF YOUR FAVORITE SUBREDDITS AND POLITELY ASK ABOUT MIGRATION!: something as simple as "Hey, I love this community but I no longer use reddit, will you guys be making a community on Kbin or other alternatives? Let me know please, thanks." will work!! We need more voices encouraging migration!...

Wow, I never thought I'd see the day where Reddit would remove entire mod teams.
I guess they were right when they said:

The r/WatchRedditDie moderator team regrets to inform our community that we have, in fact, watched Reddit die...

Reddit died and we watched it.

Are those butter flavored?

I have a crosspost bot, I'm mainly testing it and it's purpose is to use reddit as link agregator to help small communities get some content going.
It only posts external links, never OC nor a link to reddit.

Also in my case the bot will get one post no older than 5 hours every hour, to prevent flooding with posts.

This looks amazing! I believe kbin will look really good in the near future

That cloudflare problem was solved :)

I use both, I like kbin feed much more, lemmy takes a long time to update the feed (although a fix might be very close) other than that, I like the access to microblog platforms.

Call it Lemmunity even tho that sounds like immunity

Are you already defederating from suspicious instances? If not, What are you planning to do?

Meta's incursion in the fediverse might cause very bad effects, there's nothing preventing them from spitting ads from their new platform to all other platforms compatible with it.
I really hope that if we come to that, admins will defederate immediately.

This is what I fear the most tbh

Welcome, don't be scared of asking something!

theoretically

I got scared until you said this, ofc any question is fine as long as it is hypothetical.

You are participating on a kbin thread right now, kbin is basically another lemmy but because they speak the same language we can communicate.

lixus98,

Only if you are in the Microblog tab, since it treats every post as something more akin to a tweet. However it shouldn't show up on the Threads tab.
Also, you can't collapse comments at the moment, however the feature is being developed.

Assuming you are on a lemmy instance you link them like !communityname@instance.domain

Seems to be a bug with Lemmy, if you click the sub button multiple times it should eventually subscribe

Great news!, if kbin implements a lemmy-like api (which is being discussed) this app would be entirely compatible as well!

lixus98,
lixus98 avatar

A kbin API is in the works, if we manage to make it compatible with lemmy this app would be usable for kbin as well.
