What is your favorite life hack that has saved you money, time, or made your day-to-day activities easier?

These might be kind of lame or obvious

  • Looking for open source software. I'd rather use Antenna Pod instead of Spotify for podcasts instead of paying for an app or subscription that may not be reliable.
  • Drinking water when tired. It kept my hands busy and helped me cut back on smoking.
  • Learning to solder helped me buy less replacement electronics.
writerlygal,

Creating a morning routine. It’s so beneficial to just do necessary things on autopilot, even when half asleep 😊

What part of Kbin do you like the most ?

@kreynen@kbin.social avatar

@xc2215x the irony that some the improvements made to modernize the version of PHP it runs on were contributed by Facebook and the fact that it's Twig template files can be modified by anyone familiar with HTML and CSS. You don't need to know PHP to contribute improvements.

Getting error message while trying to create a magazine? Any ideas why? Or where I could get a step-by-step tutorial?

@barnyard_noise I'll be releasing a full guide on creating and moderating your magazine soon. Be sure to look for it on /m/kbinMeta and /m/ModHelp.

What app do you use for /kbin browsing?

Currently using a webapp from the kbin.social website saved to my Home Screen on iOS. It works pretty great actually, but it’s got some quirks. Mainly, it’s not really tuned for the phone screen, not well enough at least. It also lacks niceties like easily previewing image and video posts, as well as saving them. Coming from Apollo, saving media to my phone in a specific folder is sorely missed.

Suggestions?

curlygirl,

I could be wrong but I don't think there is an app for kbin yet, but there is one in development.

Jcb2016,

@astrsk Everyone using Kbin on there phone is using the website or Web app. It's got it's issues but it works.

What is the meaning of so many posts referencing “Rule”? Like it will be a meme post but one of the words is replaced with the word “Rule”

borkcorkedforks,

@markisus The magazine or community is just about posting random things. The only rule is that you're supposed to post before you leave. So "rule"

Will something be done about moderators owning 50+ magazines/communities and counting? Already seeing power mods migrate from Reddit trying to hoard as many communities as possible.

Do you think they are actively trying to become moderators of those communities or is there a chance they're trying to recreate the subreddits they're accustomed to?

What video game is an absolute 100/100 in your opinion?

Nepenthe,
@Nepenthe@kbin.social avatar

Journey. Short enough to complete in a sitting. Original creature designs and beyond gorgeous music. Yes enemies but also yes immortality, which sounds strange but turned out to be balanced enough that it's neither too boring nor too stressful.

No dialogue. No explanation except for whatever hieroglyphs you stumble across out in the middle of the desert, all of which are things a player could easily miss if they're not focused on exploring. Still sobbed three separate times. Everyone I've persuaded to give it a try has agreed with me, including the person that initially made fun of me. That one apologized.

Discovering features in kbin -- can't find "approve follow request".

I can't follow my account here from my Mastodon account, but I found that I can search for famous accounts like @Gargron but not my own on scholar.social doesn't show up in search. Is this the quirk with instances not supporting something? I remember seeing it but am not finding where the explanation on what to do is.

Who is a real life badass?

PrinceHabib72,

He'd been in and out of the legal system for violence both before and after the Murphy trial. As for where he is now, I have no clue.

Why does the Test version app button on the kbin.pub website not have a download? I'm desperately dying to use kbin outside of a browser on mobile

@drifty@kbin.social avatar

@SpacemanSpiff Oh the PWA works well on Android, but the kbin mobile experience itself is just not it for me. I need an app that works on API and is good looking, because dear god kbin is well... not the best as a PWA for mobile.

@envis10n Ah damn. Can't wait for it to be released

Is there a good way to promote a magazine on kbin to other places?

Hi all,

I opened a League of Legends magazine on kbin, but for such a popular game I'm having serious issues actually getting people in there. am I doing something wrong? I thought it naturally would fill up with users but it's not. I'm still very new to kbin, and I sincerely don't understand any of this stuff. Just trying to get more activity in magazines I'm interested in!

Jormar, to AskKbin
@Jormar@kbin.social avatar

So... add new article is to make new threads. And create magazine is... a new sub?

Anyway, it will take a while to get used to all these things. Thanks for existing, still.

EDIT: Don't want to make another microblog, so an edit is it. Sometimes when I'm upvoting a comment, it will give me an error. It's not just once, but repeatedly. Anyone know why?

Yeah. Kbin is different from Reddit/Lemmy in that it kind of tries to combine twitter/mastodon and Reddit.

Lemmy calls subs Communities. It calls posts posts.

New software is new, sadly. Growing pains over the last 2 weeks has been leading to random bugs and glitches. Should be resolved as they upgrade things, change coding, etc etc.

markisus, to AskKbin

How do I join a magazine on kbin.social? Or does kbin not have such a concept?

Otome-chan,
@Otome-chan@kbin.social avatar

@markisus just tab "subscribe" in the sidebar.

markisus,

@Otome@kbin.social
Oh I see it from desktop. On mobile I can't see it.
