A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Lemmy and KBIN appear to federate with each other (which I hadn't expected, but I guess both are running AP?)
@rysiek @technology I heard about #kbin and tried loading https://kbin.social/ only to see the landing page of #cloudflare . Pretty disappointing. If people want to avoid the centralization of sites like reddit... well this is centralization on steroids.
@federico3 you can bet kbin.social is being hammered with insane traffic. Reddit about Kbin migration got banned and then un-banned, so Streisand effect iis at work.
There are other Kbin instances, though there are not many of them:
https://the-federation.info/platform/184
So people need to start setting up Kbin instances to spread the load. 🙂
@rysiek @federico3 @technology Doesn't look like it's been detected/listed there yet, but I saw that @jerry set up https://fedia.io
@rysiek what do you get from that feed? I only get a set of "boosts", that seem like they're comments to the articles themselves? Not sure I'm getting any of the articles. I've also tried following a couple of other channels/magazines/"groups"? on beehaw.org, and they're all showing up as empty (I'm on glitch-soc, not standard-mastodon, though).
Also, the docs on beehaw said to add [!technology@beehaw.org](/c/technology@beehaw.org) instead of [@technology](https://beehaw.org/c/technology) ? But the leading @ worked from my instance-search-bar.
anyway, sorry for info-dump, but I'm curious about other people who've gotten successfully from mastodon to lemmy/kbin
@matt_panaro I'm getting all the comments boosted - I'm not sure I've seen any articles either. Following #Kbin magazines doesn't appear to do anything at all. I created a Kbin account so I can follow things more successfully for now...
