kbin.social was the first thing on the recommended list.
Yay
What’s the best/least obnoxious way to suggest to communities who haven’t brought up migrating yet that they should consider it?
There’s like 3 subs that if they migrated over, I’d happily just stay here forever and never go back.
I spent some time going through any subreddit I liked and joining their Discord or Lemmy.
I found quite a few that didn’t mention the blackouts or API changes and I didn’t want to cause a ruckus by posting…so I’d like to know too.
Posting this from my Lemmy acct but tbh kbin looks nicer. I have a feeling everyone’s waiting till the end of the month to really see what happens with the 3rd party apps and then they’ll lock themselves in to either: Discord, Lemmy, Kbin, or stay on Reddit.
The more tech savvy and/or privacy minded subreddits moved to Lemmy communities, at least for the stuff I look at.
Is kbin different than lemmy? I don’t understand how it might be related
In a sense, kbin is different than lemmy, but they can access the same content on the “fediverse”. It might be good to think about lemmy and kbin as different clients to access a decentralized web of content through a standard protocol. I can view stuff that originates on a lemmy instance from kbin, and I can view stuff that originates on a kbin instance from lemmy – all because it’s the same protocol.
Correct if wrong, please.
You’re literally talking to a kbin.social topic my man.
Go over to kbin.social and see what the discussion looks like from their side: https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/51779/r-ModCoord-has-officially-recommended-migration-off-of-Reddit
Does kbin have multiple instances? Or is it basically a Lemmy-and-Mastodon singular hybrid instance? Is it even open source?
Does kbin have multiple instances?
Yes.
Or is it basically a Lemmy-and-Mastodon singular hybrid instance?
Ummm… sure? At least kbin.social is a singular hybrid instance that has better-than-expected Lemmy-and-Mastodon compatibility. Not perfect yet, but pretty good.
Is it even open source?
Yes.
I know it’s not strictly relevant but god damn it what is it with people refusing to use the shift key?
The admin over at Beehaw does this too. It legitimately makes it hard to take them seriously.
Yeah, I know, who cares, right?
It’s not about caring how people get lazy with their writing, I do it plenty. It’s about, if you’re going to make a public statement, maybe capitalize your sentences so they look professional? There are countless, simple ways to do it automatically on desktop.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about. Every sentence has the first letter capitalized. The bullet points are sentence fragments, so they don’t need to be capitalized. Capitalization might look more professional to you, but it’s not grammatically correct.
You could argue some of them are commands with an implied subject of You, but not all of them. For consistency, you would want the bullet points to all have the same capitalization.
