Right. With federation, it's only an addition to the network, not supplanting it.

I'm making a list of nsfw communities/magazines on lemmy/kbin (NSFW411). I'm currently working on lemmynsfw.com and will try other lemmy instances after, so would you mind collecting more nsfw magazines from kbin?

I wish there was a turnkey solution for this

It'd be nice if there were some way to link accounts across different instances

That'll only be the case if third party apps for kbin/lemmy are good enough and have the kinks ironed out within the next two weeks.

This one seems a bit less silly of an electric plane idea: https://www.vox.com/recode/2023/2/2/23582152/nasa-x-plane-boeing-air-force-sustainable-aircraft

Apparently the engines use regular fuel for takeoff but use battery for the rest of the flight.

Lemmy is harder to start than reddit because the federated nature of it makes it not just one place. Just because you want to escape the man doesn't mean you want to have to jump through hoops and read a textbook of documentation to understand things.

How does that square with beehaw gaining significant numbers of users as part of reddit's recent migration? They wouldn't be looking for somewhere to join if they felt like reddit would continue to work for them, and I'd say that automatically makes replacing reddit their primary goal.

It's not about getting told what to do or having your data sold, it's about a friction-free social media experience. It depends on what the aims of the platform are and what the desires of potential users are. Personally, I'd imagine most users want something simple and easy, where they don't have to think about what and where and how to post. But if the intent of the platform is to make that harder, then that's fine, it'll just result in fewer users and less content/activity.

@LambentMote
I thought I engaged pretty well with the questions, but I answered them from a simple, matter-of-fact perspective, basically just saying that it's a big instance and I'd like to be a part of it, then answering #3 with the communities I'd like to participate in. Do I have to specifically affirm the philosophical underpinnings of how beehaw operates? I'm fine with that and I do agree with them with how I would participate on beehaw, it just didn't seem necessary when applying.

@alyaza kbin.social next, I suppose?
