thank you for your concise and systematic approach - i am very fond of your suggestions!

atm, kbin ui feels a bit cluttered, indeed > page navigation should be easier > is there any navigation tutorial btw?

oh, the rhymes are quirky, and filled with joy :)

Like many folks on aggregator sites, I'd create magazines / communities / sub-sites if I didn't mean I then had to manage and moderate them afterwards. (There are many things in life that fit this pattern.)

yes, creating a magazine is the easy part, whereas maintaining a magazine is a matter of discipline

when i saw all that happening, i was sure that firefish won't swim, but die soon > the rebranding happened behind closed doors, only to claim that ff was a community project > then, april got kicked out of the dev team, and there was no one else at firefish anymore to do serious backend work > firefish felt like a sect, consumed by its own hype

i thought that the iceshrimp devs had rewritten their mastodon api compatibility layer, and that iceshrimp works fine with masto clients ... it doesn't?

from the article:

Bougainville is seeking independence from Papua New Guinea, based on the overwhelming result of the referendum on independence held four years ago. Almost all - 97.7 percent - of Bougainville voters chose independence.

Last month, PNG's Minister for Bougainville Affairs Manasseh Makiba told parliament the referendum results were non-binding, and it is only the national parliament that has the authority to determine the fate of the referendum results.
He told parliament it meant the referendum result would not take immediate legal effect until the national parliament approves or ratifies it.

This was a red rag to Massatt.
He said there is nothing in the Peace Agreement or the Constitution that said the referendum is non-binding.

That's correct but it is also the case that the word binding is not used in either document.
As well, discussion on the matter during the writing of the Bougainville Peace Agreement (BPA) nearly 25 years ago led to a compromise that the referendum would go ahead on the condition it was non-binding, even if this is not spelled out.

all the *keys can communicate with lemmy as long as the lemmy post is not a link type post, and firefish users can take advantage of this rather rare event to chat with lemmy and kbin users, too

given the sheer size of threads, most fedi platforms still lack well-developed moderation tools > this is a tough nut to crack, thus preemptive defederation is a must when it comes to threads

@maegul
it's sad to see that, and all of it was foreseeable in april 2023 already ...

using kbin mostly on mobile devices, i am time and again surprised that kbin works kinda fine > e.g. kbin deals better with bad internet connections than any other fedi software i have come to know so far > given that kbin is still early beta, this is impressive

i think that we should be patient, and keep reporting bugs :)

@ernest
thank you! tags from kbin do federate on microblogging fedi - kbin users should use the the tags section rather than the text body though

  1. i also had a look at friendica; sadly, friendica seems not to be capable to pick up tagged posts from kbin > see e.g. https://friendica.opensocial.space/search?tag=kbin > tried my luck at several friendica instances, and every time: no content from kbin

  2. tags in kbin threads do not display on kbin pwa, e.g. https://kbin.social/m/kbinDevlog/t/692551 > on microblogging fedi platforms, i can see three tags: kbin, fediverse, and kbinDevlog for the magazine > with kbin pwa, neither kbin nor fediverse show up

@bogdugg

The solution, however, is not to reduce the number of instances, but rather to provide more tools for instances to group communities together.

kbin collections are grouping together communities, but unfortunately, collections themselves do not federate
