Wife is missing her r/JNMIL stories, and wants to know if there's a such lemmy or kbin magazine for them off of Reddit. Anyone know of any?

54
 
 

I can go to the main page of a Lemmy instance and see whatever is active on that instance at the time, but is there a way to get something like r/all for all federated instances?

I'm one of the r/futurology admins, and involved in setting up our new Lemmy instance - https://futurology.today

While we don't want to spam our user base, we'd still like the site to do well and promote it. We've 19 million subscribers, and by far the most traffic we get is the top posts that get on people's front page or r/all. We've sometimes used stickied comments in these posts, but I'm wary of doing that, as many users might perceive it as spam.

Any advice for promoting our site, bearing in mind 95%+ of eyeballs go to these top posts.?

Here's our onboarding announcement.

I honestly can't tell if they are just trolls or not.

How do you mod in Kbin?
I can't find any tools for modding?

For new readers of the magazine, shell4kbin is an Android app that creates a dedicated browser for the kbin.social site.

I am developing the app so as to improve the use of the site based on my experience of using it and also your feedback.

Since the first version of the app, the following have been added: css and js injection, a menu where there are various settings and direct links on various pages of the site.

In the latest version, I have added a new setting to display links in the menu for subreddits so that I can follow some specific subs - which in my experience are not yet replicable in terms of content here - without having to "leave" the site.

Russia on Tuesday fined social media site Reddit for the first time for not deleting "banned content" that it said contained "fake" information about Russia's military campaign in Ukraine, RIA reported on Tuesday, citing a Moscow court.

Edited meme for spelling

Over a month ago, I took my data out of Reddit before running "Shreddit" to OVERWRITE my comments with gibberish before deleting them.

Today, I was able to get a second copy of my data request and confirmed that all of my comments are still gibberish on Reddit's end, and DELETED when anyone else tries to view them.

I think overwriting old comments and posts is critical before deletion, because Reddit will still retain those comments in their entirety, even if they are "deleted" for other users.

I am a brand new member of the fediverse and this is my first interaction, and I feel at home. When Reddit announced the api changes I stopped using the site entirely, and since then the thing I have missed the most is that reddit sense of humor, so this made me smile.

Reddit may have won by shutting down the protest against its API changes, but not without lasting damage to its relationship with its users.

I use NetNewsWire on my iPad and Feeder on my Android phone to read RSS feeds from multiple sites (including Lemmy and Kbin). I also use it to monitor niche sub-reddits so I can give Reddit as little traffic as possible.

I guess it was inevitable that Reddit would know many are doing this and begin to kill RSS feeds. I’ve noticed the past few days that my feeds were not being updated very often, if at all, even though the feed appears to still be there.

This started a few weeks ago, apparently:

As People try to get in touch with mods through discord, the act of it being banned has been random.

Just an FYI about another Reddit alternative. New URL, too. I think they decided to change the name to avoid a copyright issue.

I got an invite code and so spent a bit of time browsing around because I'd heard good things about it. But I was surprised at how basic and non-diverse it all is. The forums are preset and are very generic. The conversations are definitely better than Reddit, but no better or worse than the ones I've had with people on Fedi.

Kbin is definitely my new home but I do like checking out the other options - I'd just heard really good things about Tildes and it definitely didn't match up with what I was playing about with today. Anyone else had a go at it? What's your take?

Was banned from the sinusitis subreddit for telling (apparently a mod) that a deviated septum absolutely can cause a sinus infection. He got upset and banned me- and even denied my ability to respond to the ban.

Petty? Maybe. But that’s the final straw for me. I just finished deleting all posts and then the account. So sick of arrogant toxic mods.
