Using Kbin (infosec.pub)

I am attempting to login to a kbin account on kbin.social and it simply isn't working at all. Any tips or tricks? It would be a bummer if this app only worked with lemmy instances.

Is it just logging in though? I can see Kbin content and reply fine?

[–] Vaseline@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes exactly. Logging into a Lemmy instance (ex. Lemmy.world) account on Memmy is possible but logging into a kbin instance (ex. Kbin.social) not possible.

I’m pretty sure lemmy can see content for a kbin instance and vice versa.

[–] berkat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, lemmy and kbin can access content from one another (assuming instances aren’t blocked on each side).

Kbin works a bit differently than Lemmy. There is a boost button in addition to the upvote button. The boost will push the content up while upvote signified that you like the content. It also has microblogging which is closer to what Mastodon does. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have an official API, so Hariette the dev of Artemis had to create her own that scrubs the site and gathers the content to display in the app.

Ah I see. I have gotten very used to boosting on mastodon.
