In case any folks who are on a lemmy instance instead of kbin see this post (Hello new users!), boost is a kbin feature, which is a different type of “software” than lemmy. The main kbin instance is kbin.social , which can interact with both Lemmy and Mastodon instances
tl;dr - kbin is different than lemmy. They all talk to each other though. Boost is kbin only
Fake internet points. Karma. Whatever you call it… does Lemmy have the equivalent? There is an undeniable motivator in trying to earn more karma as a badge of honor....
As a victim of domestic violence who has spent years online trying to help other victims, Reddit's act of undeleting several of my deleted comments just made me have to go through and manually delete. In the process, I had to relive a huge chunk of trauma.
No, some of my restored comments had been removed years ago because they were too identifying to leave out there, once the purpose of support was accomplished.
The Dev has posted that Infinity will remain working and free until their paid subscription update is released. How they are achieving this I am unsure. The other reddit client I have installed, Stealth, which I just browse on anonymously, is still working also.
There's a heap of devs working on bug fixes and improvements to the kbin.social website. If you run into a bug or find something strange, it would be great if you can report it on codeberg....
Honestly, nobody even looks at other people's Karma. I didn't care much about it. Did people really care so much baout Karma that they mourn about it here, or miss it, or used to farm it?...
Reddit admins appear to be removing links to Lemmy instances posted in comments.I'm seeing quite a few "[Removed by Reddit]" comments in /r/RedditAlternatives this evening. Anybody else seeing their comments being manipulated by Reddit staff today?
@Chozo Huffman is really taking all the cues from his hero Musk. Halving the valuation, alienating loyal developers and a core set of users and stifling freedom of information on the internet.
Not sure how I feel about this tbh, fair play if that’s what he wants to do. I don’t think it will make me stay with reddit. The community feel of lemmy and kbin is making me finally enjoy contributing again. Towards the end with reddit it felt so… Pointless.
Keep in mind you are probably using server space by uploading multiple images at once, that others pay for. Is there a reason why you want to upload many images at once?
While wiping my reddit account I remembered I still had my other old and novelty accounts to wipe so I get to feel that satisfaction multiple times over.
