Ripley, get in here stat!

Don’t worry, he’ll be back

If you’re okay with a low-cost annual subscription, AnyList is fantastic for grocery/recipe lists, and it’s cross-platform.

To approach this from a different angle, I would say this is actually an ironically encouraging sign that we are lurching in a good direction. There’s always going to be some level of racism, misogyny, homophobia, etc., but those things are mainstream enough that you have to be really hard right to beat the drum for them. It’s the kind of thing that might still play in certain areas, and with certain types or demographic, but the mainstream isn’t really down with it. Open pro-trans movements and statements are pretty new compared to these other things, so it’s just the latest in the succession of what-can-I-hate-up that authoritarian types latched onto. I have a feeling we’re lurching – and pretty quickly – toward trans becoming more mainstream

I don’t care what anyone says I will always read it as start rek

@SirNuke See if there’s a local bike project near you. There’s one near me that accepts donated bikes and refurbishes and sells them for fairly cheap or uses them for parts. They have all kinds of tools and workspace that you can use to work on your own stuff.

@steebo_jack That’s the real reason to be upset.

Little gems like this are why I’m on the internet.

I’ve seen a lot of lag and downtime from lemmy.world off and on. It seems like they get hit with DDoS or have maintenance issues (for lack of any real IT knowledge). I get the feeling they’re getting squeezed and targeted because they’re the flagship instance, but that’s just speculation on my part.

(Posting from kbin.social in case that matters.)

You can through kbin! There’s a nice discussion of it here.

You can add their name to your kbin url like this: https://kbin.social/d/social.bbc. It should open the page as if it were a kbin magazine and have a subscribe button. After that, you should see it when you browse your subscribed threads (although it seems like it won’t appear in your list of magazines).

That is exactly the thing I homed in on before anything else. You would think that just by statistical probability the guy must have one single good trait somewhere in there, but nope. Garbage from the haircut on down.

Where we’re going, we don’t need chair legs.

I want this on a T-shirt.

That was an excellent EIL5

I’ve been toying with the idea of getting one of those. Would you do it again? Do you have any regrets or maybe wish you’d installed it on something else?

I don’t think there’s an app-app yet. I’ve read on here that kbin is fairly new, while lemmy has been around a lot longer.

What i’ve noticed is that each one is lacking something. I kind of like the layout of lemmy a bit more, but it doesn’t have the same capability of following people or communities from all over, and I don’t think you can follow users at all like in kbin and Mastodon. But kbin doesn’t have any way that I can find to save posts, which is something use a lot.

Same here!

I don’t think it’s exactly the same on lemmy – you can’t seem to sub to an entire instance, for example – but there’s at least some similar capability.

For instance, I’m on kbin right now, so when I click your user name I go to a kbin version of your lemmy.world profile page: https://kbin.social/u/@SubsAndDubs@lemmy.world. It has the option to block or follow you, which should show your posts in my kbin feed. As far as I know, Lemmy can’t do the same with kbin users. I haven’t found a way to follow other lemmy users either, except on kbin.

But on lemmy you can sub to lemmy or kbin communities, even if they’re on other instances. On lemmy.world, RedditMigration has the address https://lemmy.world/c/RedditMigration@kbin.social. So it seems to be a community there that just pulls in from the original at https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration@kbin.social. (No idea why it’s like this.)

So if your main instances was, say, beehaw.org, you would search for !RedditMigration and you’d see that community pop up in the results. You can subscribe to it that way and it would be in your subs list on beehaw. The same should be true of kbin magazines/communities.

It looks like each community on lemmy has their address posted next to the subscription box, so you can paste it into your lemmy.world search and sub to anything you want regardless which instance it’s on.

In theory this is going to work (maybe?) with other fedi services like Mastodon, but I suspect the admins and devs have to build a lot of things, so it may not be around for awhile.

Still works for me. You can search by the post title:

YSK that Kbin can subscribe not only to magazines and communities, but entire instances.

It was on m/kbinMeta

@Arotrios had a really good post about some of the stuff you can do with kbin to follow other communities or even entire instances across the fediverse.
