I'm seeing a lot of chat about the migration of "reddit brand" concepts like AMA and IAmA. We should probably come up with alternatives? Who's got some suggestions?
I've seen AMA threads on 4chan, I don't think it's something reddit-exclusive anymore. It's just a simple acronym for "Ask Me Anything" for online interviews.
Is there a place to file a bug report or is there a list of known issues with kbin?
For instance on my home page the "random posts" shows posts from magazines that I have blocked. To test this I blocked @random because there's always a post from there to see for me, and sure enough it still shows up.
I have a Mastadon, AND a Kbin now. I'm trying to sign up for different Federated services and link 'em all together. I'm loving this new protocol so much. It's quiet...
It feels similar to the early 2000's internet and I'm loving it.
@HomerAtTheBat search for the community in the Magazines area of kbin and it will return you results from kbin and other instances (lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, etc.) magazines is what kbin calls communities.
I have active threads with replies here on kbin, but I'm not getting any notifications for them in the notifications tab. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Not sure what to do....
Have you checked whether you have notifications enabled in the settings? I thought I had the same problem until I checked there and noticed that they were all turned off by default.
This morning when I opened Infinity to check Reddit, I saw the announcement above: they're going subscription-only. Ironically enough, I couldn't scroll down to see the rest of the message including prices, if there were any. I also couldn't see if there was a button to close the message or start a paid subscription. I couldn't proceed to Reddit at all. My only option was to close the app completely. So I uninstalled it.
That's it for me using Reddit on mobile! Can't say I'll miss it much. But I added a LOT of content to Reddit that way, so it's their loss. Fuck you, spez!
I have auto update turned off for apps, so I didn't get the last update for Infinity and I can still use it to see Reddit, for now. Once it dies I'm out though. I can't imagine they will be able to get enough subscriptions to support the app, so I'm not really sure what the goal is here.
Even the people subbed to r/Infinity_For_Reddit are saying they won't buy a subscription. Wouldn't Infinity be racking up a huge bill from Reddit once the API change goes into effect? There's no way subscriptions will cover that so I don't understand why they're doing this.
Unfortunately, these are problematic when dealing with instances that are not your home instance. Any links to the post page will be absolute remote instance URLs, which means you cannot interact with the post (e.g. leave a comment). The URL really needs to be made relative to your home instance for that to work, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to fix that for a specific post. I can only fix the URL to the magazine/community itself and then hope to locate the post within it again.
If there is a way to get home instance-relative RSS feeds, I'm all ears! Failing that, I might work on a scraper that can take URLs of the form:
and generate RSS feeds out of them? But I don't want to reinvent the wheel if something like this is already possible?
It might also be useful to someone trying to write an app with a multireddit-type feature? I will definitely release source if I come up with anything.
I don't know about crucial, and I'm not sure if it exists already and I just can't find it, but I'd love to be able to preview a comment or post before submitting it.
Something similar to the multireddit function that reddit has where you can use a + sign in the URL to consolidate multiple subreddits in one page? I don't know how easy this would be but if you could do that across multiple instances you could have askkbin+asklemmy@lemmy.ml+asklemmy@lemmy.world (etc) and view all the different questions at once.
More info: I’ve tried a few methods, including devices out of reach with no light, and breathing techniques. Breathing seems to be closest but I seem to have a hard time getting to a point where my breaths really slow down and relax.
@lortikins I need to find and get my e reader back up and going. I’ve tried to read on my on my phone but I guess I might as well be watching TV or a laptop at that point. I used to listen to 99designs… such a soothing podcast voice. Good tips. Thanks!
@numbscroll I've heard meditating works for some, when I cant sleep I invent a story in my head and just roll with it until eventually I drift off. Sounds dumb, but if I don't know when exactly I fell asleep, I won't be as tired in the morning (ie if I know I didnt sleep until 12 am, I'll be dead in the morning; if I followed whatever dumb story I invented in my head for hours and hours but don't know how late it was when I conked out, for whatever reason I'm not tired). Ymmv on that last bit though, lol.
How do I send a private message to another fediverse user from kbin? I thought maybe if I viewed their profile I'd have the option, but nothing obvious stood out.
Some experts say that the mug enhances the individual flavors of the ginger beer, vodka, and lime. The copper begins to oxidize when the vodka touches the walls of the mug, they say, which slightly boosts the aroma and enhances the taste of the vodka.
Knowing me, I'd never be able to tell the difference. As long as there is a strong kick to my Mule I'm a happy Muleteer.
Can I block/unsub certain magainzes from other fedis? For example I am getting a lot of .de content, and I can't read the language, and would rather not see it.
Click on the community that you want to hide and on its sidebar you should see a 🚫 symbol, right next to the "Subscribe" button. Once you turn it to red, you will stop seeing content from that community in m/all
