Today's social media transform us into merely numbers.
No problem for me.

You can write a reason when you report a post. Are you actually seeing that as a moderator?

I'm seeing more microblog posts ( kbin.social )

Is anyone else? One of the reasons I was interested in /kbin over other options was this feature, but I don't remember seeing them on subscribed or all. Is this new? I'm kind of intimidated by it but ultimately know I want to interact. I'm seeing some cool stuff! It's all on magazines I have subscribed to.

It was available from day one of kbin.social. And even earlier.

this means KES has became MES too!

Kierunkowy74 OP ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Comment unclear. Do you mean:

  • a Lemmy instance called „Pobierz”, which is "Download" in Polish, or
  • an instance of /kbin software, which is made in Poland?

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

You mean lemm.ee, huh? :)

Kierunkowy74 ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

It is both. Otherwise, you are absolutely right.

No, it's not hot. It's fucking ridiculous.

  1. But I still browse by "all".

What is the practical difference between the main instances of kbin and mbin, from a users perspective? ( kbin.social )

When spam started to become overwhelming here I signed up to the largest mbin instance, Fedia.io. On one hand it runs well and isn't overrun with spam posts. On the other, it's missing some communities that are active on kbin.social....

Kierunkowy74 ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Interstellar app will not work on kbin.social, because this server has not opened its API yet. For the app you have to use either a Mbin instance or (for vanilla /kbin experience) kbin.earth

Up- and downvoting the same comment of yours at the same time? This is illegal! /s

No. It is a version of Mastodon available on some instances, like infosec.exchange or mstdn.ca

Kierunkowy74 ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Interstellar for Android, but then your instance is kbin.earth.
kbin.social has not opened yet its API.

Or simply use a website as PWA.

kbin.social federates with Threads

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

1 floppy = 1.44 MO
1 CD = 700 MO
1 DVD = 4,7 GO
1 HD DVD = 15 GO
1 Blu-Ray = 25 GO

ASCII byte is 7 bits. 8 bits is an octet.

Kierunkowy74 ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

On Mastodon it is possible, when an instance (like Threads) is limited. Limiting is not outright suspending, and limited instance still federates, but its posts and users are not visible unless you explicitly search for them. Also, no one from a limited instance will follow you unless you approve them as a follower.

/kbin has got Collections, and PieFed has got topics. You may check either out.

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

/kbin crossposts are displayed as smaller, like on image (if you can see it :))
Edit: you can't. Click fediverse logo to see it on /kbin

And the only region for whom the explore tab is working is America as nothing is localized.

Explore tab is sorted by language, not by region, so it works too for any sufficiently large foreign language country (Spain/Latin America, Portugal/Brazil, Italy, France, Germany, Sweden, Poland, Czechia, Russia, China, South Korea, Japan).

I wish Mastodon implemented Akkoma-style bubbles of related instances, which would allow to create, like, Explore tab but only from (manually selected) several Australian instances.

Does it look better on /kbin?

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Lemm.ee is already like that

Lemmy.world removed Piracy as a external community. Again

Vivaldi web browser opening their Mastodon instance brought me to the Fediverse. I started from Mastodon, but became curious of other fedi softwares - /kbin is one of them. I am on kbin.social as my Threadiverse instance in English since April '23, before Reddit API affair.

Kierunkowy74 OP ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Yes, immediately.

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

I can only check federation with our mastodon server (pol.social), and now is very quickly (about seconds).

Checked with mastodon.com.pl and 101010.pl - both received my boost in seconds.

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Test magazines on Szmer, Sopuli, lemm.ee and Piefed received my posts in seconds.

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Socialhome with its tiled display of posts
Bonfire, which is modular, and will be available in many flavours (for Open Science, organisations or simply a social network)
Mobilizon - events and groups.
Gancio - events, published anonymously. Instance can be followed from Fediverse as an account.
Bookwyrm for books
Postmarks - a federated bookmarking website
Funkwhale - for uploading and listening to music
Castopod - Wordpress but for podcasting?
Misskey and its forks - more than Twitter emulation - includes emoji reactions and animated text!

/kbin was down on 15 of March. Like Cæsar.

Funny, but I am not going anywhere. I like /kbin and am confident in Ernest, his work and vision

Wikipedia is not a Big Tech nor a commercial enterprise prone to enshittification nor it profits from surveillance capitalism. We don't need another, competing, universal source of enclopedical information. Wikipedia, on contrary to X, Reddit, Facebook, etc. is not going anywhere. Any self-styled Wikipedia alternative ended up dead, thematic, or biased by design.

However there are many thematical and fan wikis hosted on Fandom, which itself is a commercial company and there were already some contoversies concerning it. Wikis on Fandom are very resource-intensive compared to Wikipedia or independent thematical wikis.

Ability to edit at several wikis from the same account without being tied to Fandom could be one of things that Ibis offers and could benefit independent wiki sites.

And of course, MediaWiki is free software and federation could be added as a functionality.

@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

You could peek at two opposing views on the same article, for example.

Post-truth as a service.

Kierunkowy74 ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

With biased by design I have meant something like Conservapedia, RationalWiki, etc.. They do not try to make neutral point of view, as is (or at least should be) applied on Wikipedia.

Now available as a table!

Kierunkowy74 OP ,
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

You are looking at subscriber numbers, and this table counts Monthly Active Users (who posted, commented or voted) of the community.

(yes, it is a table now :))
