This episode is okay. I like its plot and its spy thriller theme. However, I was hoping it to be like Andor. The tension and excitement are kinda lacking. I will still watch the whole season but won’t be that excited with every episode release.
Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted).

In the upcoming days, there will be an hour or two when I won’t be able to do anything at work because of technical events happening. This could last a month. I’d like to manage my time effectively but it could also be a chance to do non-related work. What do you do or will do to stay productive during those idle times at...
Majority of the people here are super helpful, much friendlier, and supportive even with all the flaws that we are experiencing. Building a community takes effort. Everyone’s effort is focused here so that we can have the place that we want it to be - a place better than reddit.
It’s from this thread. It got me thinking about how much I also like the name kbean so I drew the mascot shaped like a bean. I made the space helmet circular so changing the head and facial features would be simpler. Same goes with the suit, simplified it so it’s easier to modify. Added jet packs cause we are explorers or...

I most likely see them as pro-suffering looking closely at the topics they target women, LGBTQ, veterans, minorities, children, poor people. Is this some kind of fetish
I used to have a list of sites that I go to but lost it in the migration. I visit examine regularly for nutrition. Exrx has tons of information but after a while, it gets overwhelming for me when navigating the site. I used to love simple science fitness but not anymore cause the content doesn’t feel simple anymore. I love...
Reddit was great, but not because of third party apps, not because of quality moderators, not because of the development or corporate oversight ... Reddit was great because of the content. Everything else was how that content was handled to create a great user experience. If there's no content to handle, there's no Reddit....
And then have no activity in them. Not quite sure why this is happening, is it power hungry idiots thinking if I make fifty magazines, maybe one will be popular?...
Haha yeah, you are definitely right and I feel the same strange feeling. I guess we are so familiar and so used to the names, it’s a daily visit for us back then but it’s in a new world.
A lot of us came from reddit. I think a lot also expect it to be reddit-like based on the threads and comments posted here. Making the magazines is sort of welcoming people and making the bed for new comers, hoping this place will feel like home. Those who made tons of magazines might have been subscribers, readers, lurkers, and want their interests to be here too.
The world can be a pretty strange place, but it's good to look back and find at least one thing that was good to you today. Be that a nice conversation, a cool picture you saw, a song you heard... whatever! But if you didn't find anything good today, here's your sign: go do one thing for you, right now. Even if its just a moment...
I think the biggest thing we need to figure out is how to make it sound easier than people say it is. People get too hung up on the technicalities of how the fediverse works, and they never try it out and see that it isn't as confusing as it sounds. If we could write up a simple blurb to help promote kbin to subreddit moderators...
edit:
A microblog is more of a tweet rather than a group chat. A person is posting an announcement/microblog within the magazine and anyone can see and comment on it. In a group chat, it is for invited people only.
Yes to subreddits equivalent to communities and magazines. But magazines have microblogs unlike communities.

What Kbin needs right now

Have encountered racism, hate speech or homophobia on the fediverse yet?
If so, do you consistently report it and get the feeling that it gets dealt with? Of course there are instances dedicated solely to being human trash
OC Quick, make as many Magazines as possible!
And then have no activity in them. Not quite sure why this is happening, is it power hungry idiots thinking if I make fifty magazines, maybe one will be popular?...
The Migration seems to be going well! 125k on kbin.social instance alone, and over 100k across Lemmy!

How can we smooth out the migration and help promote kbin/lemmy to subreddits and redditors?
