I'm making a list of nsfw communities/magazines on lemmy/kbin (NSFW411). I'm currently working on lemmynsfw.com and will try other lemmy instances after, so would you mind collecting more nsfw magazines from kbin?

It'd be nice if there were some way to link accounts across different instances

That'll only be the case if third party apps for kbin/lemmy are good enough and have the kinks ironed out within the next two weeks.

This one seems a bit less silly of an electric plane idea: https://www.vox.com/recode/2023/2/2/23582152/nasa-x-plane-boeing-air-force-sustainable-aircraft

Apparently the engines use regular fuel for takeoff but use battery for the rest of the flight.

they're welcome to interact with our instance obviously as long as they abide by the rules

What about the people abiding by the rules who thought lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works would be fine enough instances to sign up with? Feels like throwing out plenty of babies with the bathwater, even if the bathwater was particularly dirty.

Lemmy is harder to start than reddit because the federated nature of it makes it not just one place. Just because you want to escape the man doesn't mean you want to have to jump through hoops and read a textbook of documentation to understand things.

How does that square with beehaw gaining significant numbers of users as part of reddit's recent migration? They wouldn't be looking for somewhere to join if they felt like reddit would continue to work for them, and I'd say that automatically makes replacing reddit their primary goal.

It's not about getting told what to do or having your data sold, it's about a friction-free social media experience. It depends on what the aims of the platform are and what the desires of potential users are. Personally, I'd imagine most users want something simple and easy, where they don't have to think about what and where and how to post. But if the intent of the platform is to make that harder, then that's fine, it'll just result in fewer users and less content/activity.

@Ashiette For beehaw registration. I'm accessing it from kbin, but especially in light of defederating from two of the biggest open-registration lemmy instances, I'd like to be on beehaw directly.

[-] ppptan@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

I'm not really sure how you can distinguish between one open-registration instance and another, since spammers and trolls can just sign up to any open-registration site and interact with beehaw like I'm doing now.

Is reapplying a thing? How do I know if I should reapply?

[-] ppptan@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

@alyaza kbin.social next, I suppose?

Sorting this by active users gives you the answer you're looking for better than that github page: https://lemmyverse.net/

I'm guessing it has something to do with mastodon, since microblogging is interoperable with mastodon like how threads are interoperable with lemmy.

Example post:
https://kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org/p/434431

I can see this post on beehaw here:
https://beehaw.org/post/565892

But next to it in technology@beehaw.org are threads that show up in the threads section of kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org

How are threads and microblogs distinguished on different instances if they're both interoperable with both lemmy and mastodon like this appears to be? How can you access the general mastodon feed from kbin?

Apparently there's some sort of fix in the pipeline related to this, but at the very least, I'd like to be able to type kbin.social/m/kbinmeta and be redirected to kbin.social/m/kbinMeta
