Cat pic unrelated but ain't she beautiful?

Edit : I'd understand if this post is deleted since it's not strictly about lemmy.world, but I really didn't know where to post it!

I'm not going anywhere. Feels more like home tbh. Curious how it evolves as people sort themselves out, and what kind of interaction we get, if any, among the different communities with different opinions. I'm sure there'll be drama lol. Here for it.

i agree, feels very cosy here. just enough people to have a good conversation but not too many to feel swamped.

lemmy.ml seems to have built a reputation too, which is interesting. I never had any poor interactions (yet) with any moderation across the fediverse, but it’s interesting to see the effects of moderation style impacting instances.

It's interesting, because moderation here is public: you can check the modlog at the bottom of the page to see what was removed. Transparency is awesome, plus you get to see what mods have to deal with every day.

This does so much more to keep people honest too. If anything, it should build consensus. "Here's the really fucked up thing John Doe said" and rational people would see it and go "yeah, damn, good move" instead of the chamber of hidden secrets system Reddit had.

Asshole mods can get called out while shitty users are way more obvious.

I’m still confused by the Fediverse stuff. I can’t grasp how to subscribe to lemmy in kbin and vice versa. But I’m here to stay.

[–] freebrick@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Simple dude. For example let's say you want to subscribe to https://sopuli.xyz/c/steamdeck

The equivalent url in kbin would be: https://kbin.social/m/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

Edit: so url would be https://kbin.social/m/[community]@[instance_url] and hit subscribe on the right

Edit2: nice cat

[–] amitten@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

This post was very helpful for that: https://lemmy.world/post/266744 The same person has 2 other chapters that were very helpful for me. Check them out!

[–] Very_Bad_Janet@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm in Kbin on my phone. If I open a post that was made in Lemmy and it looks like a community I want to follow, I scroll tk the bottom of the post. There should be the name of the Lemmy community with an icon, and underneath it a subscribe button. I just click on that to subscribe to that specific Lemmy community.

[–] Ni@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

This is what I do, find it the easiest way

The cat looks beautiful!! I like her :D

[–] WordyWalnut@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't mind taking the time to become acclimated. Had I known about the existence of lemmy (fediverse?) I would have left reddit sooner.

I wanted to quit reddit since a long time, it feels like the best time to do it

She looks soo happy btw. House isn't a house without a happy cat haha

Its not the best guide, and I plan on cleaning it up more, and adding more content-

However, https://static.xtremeownage.com/blog/2023/join-the-fediverse/

Has a few tips to get you started.
