I don’t think I understand federation still. A lot of communities added to lemmy.world aren’t federated to other lemmy instances it seems. At least I can’t subscribe to them from my geddit.social account.
I don't think the Fediverse has enough users for you to break EA's "sense of pride and accomplishment" downvote record just yet, but kudos for making an early attempt.
I dare say you'll find that reddit has ruined reddit for a portion of the users. Protesting is important to stop corporation creep and attempt protect or maintain community values
The idea of paying a monthly subscription to use reddit is so off-putting. Maybe if it were a company that I didn't feel so negatively about, I'd consider it.
same boat here. Inquired when it did not come in a few days and they said it can take up to 30. I too have had my account for awhile so im glad you posted as maybe that is just the hold up.
If you put the Kbin link or Lemmy app right in RIF's place on your home screen, you'll barely miss it when your muscle memory comes calling for you to push the icon when you get ever so slightly bored.
I’ve been trying to get up and running in the fediverse since Tuesday. I have registered for accounts with several Lemmy instances (https://sh.itjust.works/, lemmy.srv.eco, and others). In every case I haven’t gotten a registration email. When I try to log in I get an error saying that my email is not verified. It’s frustrating because I’ve downloaded Liftoff and wefwef and Jeroba - but I can’t sign in to any account to participate.
I’m glad that my account registration worked for kbin. If anyone has experience registering with lemmy would be great to understand what I’m doing wrong or if it really is that these servers are so backed up that they are not sending out automated emails. Or can I use an email address to register with only one lenmy instance and never with any other?
I had a hard time registering with beehaw.org during the last growth spurt. It took a few days for the registration to go through. Once it did, I got approved right away. Give it a few days to calm down. Of course, now that you are on kbin, you really don't have to sign up anywhere else for most purposes.
I was waiting for this announcement. So happy that he’s on board with us. A decade of using boost before, and I’ll use it for another when he releases boost for lemmy.
newnewreddit: 10 adds per post, every subreddit is blended together, and the comments from random other posts are added to every post. also the orangered vs periwinkle april fools weapons get added and cost money
New new reddit: Actual posts are limited to one per page. All other posts are bots or adverts. The real post moves away from the mouse pointer as you approach it. Gotta catch that post! Sometimes the bots/adverts posts will jump in front of the bullet (mouse click) to save the actual post (sometimes = most of the time).
Sup and welcome from an ex-Boost enjoyer! Things are still extremely young here, so I'd ask some forgiveness while our fantastic dev works himself to the bone to set everything in order. There is only one of him, he did not think his pet project was going to be on the radar, and he only took on helpers a few days ago.
Minor bugs aside, it's surprisingly nice here and I hope you and any others in the comments enjoy yourselves. If there's anything you need help with, just ask around. 99.9% of us only just learned the ropes ourselves, so we won't judge. Getting used to the fediverse is super weird
