lmao the fact that this is straight from a DOD website

The Navy also had a recording of Taps on YouTube, but what with the ad-blocker changes happening at YouTube right now, figured that the Navy site would be a preferable source.

Why is everyone developing apps for Lemmy and not Kbin?

kbin lacks an API with an equivalent feature set. Ernest is aware of this and it's on the bug tracker. Any working apps for kbin are using site scraping as a temporary workaround. In layman's terms it means the app developer is doing a lot of extra work that will mostly get thrown away when the API rework is complete. Artemis is the only one currently doing this off the top of my head.

The developer of Pixelfed, @dansup, is working on a kbin app as well.

AlbertHockman, (edited )

I read somewhere on here that Kbin doesn't have an API available right now and that Artemis is making their own API through scraping. That'd play a big role if it's true. I also wouldn't be surprised if migration numbers were skewed towards Lemmy either.

Scraping is hard on a server though. You gotta download the entire page and all its data instead of just the info/action you requested. That's one of the reasons other websites bother to make APIs, so bots and others DON'T start just scraping them.

Tbf you can see some kbin stuff from lemmy either through desktop or a mobile app, but Sync for Lemmy is planned to have kbin support too, but we'll see.

I really hope @christianselig is paying attention to all this. It sounds like his iPad work would directly translate over here and a bit of work would create a fedi app.

hairyscotsman,

For sure, if Apollo existed for fedi sites, it would be amazing. I didn't realise how much I hate using reddit website since using Apollo and without the app, the site is dead in the water for me.

spoilerguy,

Don't know if you use Lemmy, but wefwef for Lemmy is such a nice webapp and feels almost just like Apollo. Features are being added on the daily but it's become by far the best experience for me for browsing Lemmy instances right now.

Kbin App from @dansup

Here's the latest from him: It's called KBam

Misleading clickbait, see the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/14kj3z7/so_long_and_thanks_for_all_the_feedback/

Edit for clarification: This notice is only about the changelogs posts the Java Team has been making for quite some time which we have decided stop, it is not an official policy for all of Mojang Studios, Xbox or Microsoft.

Really happy to see that the dev is bringing Boost to Lemmy/Threadiverse. Losing Boost has been the saddest part of reddit shutting down for me

BoCanCan,

You could say Reddit has Peak-ed. Now it’s time for some Digital Innovation. :)

@herzberd@kbin.social avatar

holy shit dude hi :)

LadyAutumn,

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.

Just deleted all my Reddit accounts. Good riddance.

MarvinKMooney, in Farewell Baconreader. It's been a wonderful 11 years.
@MarvinKMooney@kbin.social avatar

Same with me for reddit is fun. Been using the app for so long I just can't bring myself to remove it yet. I for sure will not be installing the official app.

MisterMoo,
@MisterMoo@kbin.social avatar

I deleted Apollo and my Reddit journey is over, 11 years after it began. I honestly thought it would be more difficult. I think I more miss the Reddit that Baconreader was named for: the silly young Reddit full of advice animals and comments like “it’s shit like this” and ice soap and 3AM chili. That Reddit has been dead and buried for years but I soldiered on until they finally said I don’t matter with their attempts to monetize user content and eliminate third-party apps.

Niello, (edited ) in It's interesting how much hate you can get for requesting someone to post at Lemmy too...

The people in that subreddit seem pretty cringe and whiny. Some of them will quietly eat their word in the not so distant future when Lemmy and Kbin has more useful features than Reddit as Reddit keeps going down hill.

good, im waiting for the official release, also waiting for my sign up approval

OneMoreB,

They are encouraging users to send feedback on updates via their official feedback site, as well as telling users to engage with their official accounts on other social media platforms.

@sharkato@kbin.social avatar

Cheers to the best reddit app. I'll be eager to try out the lemmy client when it arrives!

RheingoldRiver, (edited ) in Reddit seems to be speedrunning 'self-destruct and devalue IPO'. What would be Reddit's next worst steps?
  1. Reddit Platinum/Premium/Orange gives you an orange check by your name, for the low cost of $10/month
  2. old.reddit actually still exists, but only if you pay for Reddit Platinum
  3. In order to vote you must have Reddit Platinum
  4. Actually, in order to become a moderator you must have Reddit Platinum - that's right, you have to pay them to volunteer. And you still have to follow the Mod Code of Conduct.

Good. We need more of this
