As Twitter flounders, Mastodon refreshes its official app for Android users
  • I tried a lot, but Toot! is the best of the bunch.

  • Ordinary redditors are feeling the pain as well.
  • To clarify, I meant posts on kbin/Lemmy, so that someone would land on kbin/Lemmy when searching for things, like people do now with Reddit.

  • RG35XX - This is amazing!
  • I got some bootleg Airpods from Temu that my iPhone recognizes and treats as Airpods. I call them my Airpuds. LOL. But, tbh, the audio quality is on par with my wife's actual Airpods. The construction isn't as solid and I wouldn't sweat on them much, but for 20 bucks, I'm happy with them.

  • Lemmy is confusing and poorly limited. How does Lemmy work? Why are there so many Lemmy clones? Do I have to sign up for each of them? Does my post show on each of them?
  • Artemis is supposed to support kbin and Lemmy. If it doesn't support Lemmy right away, then it wouldn't help to register on a Lemmy instance, because Artemis still wouldn't support Lemmy.

    You're right that you can't sign into a Lemmy instance with your kbin credentials. Each site is it's own site. If something is posted on lemmy.world, it sends a notice to kbin.social and kbin.social fetches the info and publishes it locally on kbin as well. Comments on the kbin post are sent back to lemmy.world. There's basically a copy of the post and comments on every server. Not every server will "know" about every other server though, so content could push across the entire federated network slowly sometimes.

  • Twitter locked behind login page.
  • Governments should just set up a single user ActivityPub instance to broadcast their updates.

  • Twitter locked behind login page.
  • I have a feeling that Meta getting involved in Federation is going to be the doorway for a lot more people to figuring this out.

  • Ordinary redditors are feeling the pain as well.
  • Are kbin or Lemmy posts being indexed by search engines? If the content was created, would anyone be able to find it?

  • A proper smartwatch
  • Yeah? I kind of figure that's how it'd be for me. I like the idea of how the Apple Watch integrates with iPhone, but I don't like the way it looks.

  • Lemmy.ml is blocking all requests from /kbin Instances
  • I'm glad you think so. Please see the attached screenshot for an example of what I'm talking about. I'd like to have the text one size bigger so I can read it more easily, but then whole words are cut off or missing.

  • A proper smartwatch
  • What I want is a watch that looks just like old fashioned analog watches, does all of the fitness tracking you get from a modern Fitbit, and transmits it to my phone. I don't want a square watch or a digital display. I want classic beauty with tech under the hood.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • What if they actually just want responses from people on Lemmy, though?

  • If there's one thing I won't miss about reddit
  • I agree. The one upping and leaving phrases as a subsequent replies thing was so annoying. I hated it.

  • Lemmy.ml is blocking all requests from /kbin Instances
  • Lemmy devs aren't great people anyway, in terms of who you want to be developing software. Anyone that would think hardcoding word censorship into their software because it's theirs has a few screws loose, so I wouldn't put it past them to have done this intentionally.

  • Lemmy.ml is blocking all requests from /kbin Instances
  • I do wish kbin looked a bit better on mobile, though. I have larger font on my iPhone and instead of wrapping, the text just goes off the screen and can't be viewed.

  • Obama calls out obsession with Titanic sub while people turn blind eye to migrant boat tragedy
  • It's more fun to publicly comment on, mock, shame, and laugh about a bunch of idiots that died doing something stupid than reflect on the driving forces behind a boat with 700 people on it capsizing in the Mediterranean.

  • Opinion | The Plan to Save New York From the Next Sandy Will Ruin the Waterfront. It Doesn’t Have To.
  • Walls would have been better than the travesty they're committing downtown on the East Side now. They just finished remodeling the park and it was beautiful, then they ripped it up and destroyed the old beautiful trees there to just add dirt and make it higher up.

  • MTA moves forward with plans to install platform doors in three subway stations
  • Platform doors were being installed in stations in Singapore in 2008 when I lived there. It's embarrassing that NYC is so far behind the curve in this area. Not surprising at all, just embarrassing.

  • ​Canada Passes Law Forcing Facebook, Google to Pay Media for Links
  • Yes, and all of those links on those news areas put users on the news sites.

  • Canadians will no longer have access to news content on Facebook and Instagram, Meta says
  • The amount of traffic they drive to the news sites is payment enough.

  • New figures reveal scope of military discrimination against LGBTQ troops, with over 29,000 denied honorable discharges
  • I work for the military. The only part of that community that regularly gets made fun of and shit on are the transformers. No one cares who’s packing who’s butt or tickling who’s bush. But dicks out in the female latrine is offensive.

    All of these "we should stop trying to be Reddit and just be kbin and stop talking about Reddit" posts reminds me of all of the "we should stop trying to be Twitter and just be Mastodon and stop talking about Twitter" posts a few months ago.
