Alive and well as @Gamera8ID@kaijus.us!

Have you found any articles comparing the two IRL, rather than just by specs? I’ve struck out looking for YouTube videos. I expect that’s due to the Defy being new.

If “master” unintentionally made some people uncomfortable then there’s no harm in changing the default, since you can modify it if you choose.

No plans to go back :)

I notice you’re really putting in the work getting this community started. Thanks for that!

I think that’s why admin posts to lemmyworld would make sense.

“This week we blocked these 5 instances for these reasons and these 2 external communities for these other reasons. Discussions are open here until we lock the thread.”

This is being discussed in https://lemmy.world/c/jerboa@lemmy.ml too. You might want to check out that Community.

There’s a comprehensive list of Lemmy apps being curated here.

My personal recommendation is https://wefwef.app.

Thanks. My job’s gotten busier since I bought my DS412+ and it’s been sitting virtually unused for awhile. I’m hoping someone can provide directions that are just a step above “click to install” because I’m (too busy/too lazy/too clueless <-- pick one) to DIY it.

Have you tried https://wefwef.app?

The post he responded to listed a number of alternate scenes. All minor.

Also stealing.

Very helpful. Thanks!

shit tickets

I have never of tp being called this, but I am totally stealing it

Now imagine if your PlayStation can cross-play with a Nintendo Switch, and the XBox can cross-play with a PC. However, PC and Switch do not cross-play. That’s kind of how the Federation works. Different ‘hubs’ can pick and chose which other ‘hubs’ they talk to.

This is one of the best explanations I’ve seen. Thank you.

Slightly off-topic, but your example actually helps lessen my concern with what I understood about “defederating.”

I almost “noped” on using Lemmy because I saw defederating as removing the choice from me as an individual. Instance admins can, at any time, remove my option to engage with users in another instance. Welcome to the echo chamber.

But your example helps me see defederation in a slightly different light. I still get why it’s called “the nuclear option,” but it’s maybe more like “We don’t talk to Nazis, even if they don’t bring up white supremacy while discussing beekeeping.”

So while I still don’t think the decision to defederate by Beehaw makes sense, I do have less concern about defederating as a concept. (Although I still want the ability to transfer my posts and comments to a different instance, should my instance admin make a decision I disagree with.)

Thanks again!

This is helpful, thanks.

It doesn’t cost you anything to sign up for, so give it a try.

The main cost is time, to understand the platform and to find community. I created a Kbin account, but I don’t see myself having the time to be divided between Kbin and Lemmy so I’m hoping not to have to maintain both.

Kbin federates with Lemmy - so users can engage in each other’s posts.

This gives me hope. So is it basically just a different UI? This is where my understanding of the fediverse breaks down.

Can you elaborate?

I read that Kbin defederated with Lemmy because it couldn’t initially handle the influx of new users migrating from Reddit, but that it has federated again.

So is it a Lemmy instance, like Beehaw?

I know that Kbin doesn’t use communities (“/c/”) but uses magazines (“/m/”) so I thought it was different.

I also read that there was some new way to post to Lemmy from Mastadon, but I thought those were different, like Reddit and Twitter. But they both rely on something called “ActivityPub”?

So is Kbin similar to Lemmy (by being Reddit-like), but distinct like Mastadon (which is Twitter-like)?

I didn’t have a Twitter account, but was a heavy Reddit user. I don’t have a Mastadon account, but I’m liking Lemmy. However I have some FOMO about Kbin because I don’t understand how it all works together.

True, but the writer’s room is the real star of R&M and it’s been reported that Roiland stopped collaborating there years ago. Hopefully it’ll only be disconcerting for a minute or two, but Solar Opposites being first to have a clip out could make it harder for R&M to pull off “<Belch.> I just sound different now! Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!” without looking like a copycat.

I made a slight modification to your bookmarklet asking to which instance you are migrating, which produces a list of links you can paste into something like https://www.openallurls.com so it becomes just a matter of clicking all of the “Subscribe” buttons:

javascript:(function() {
  const currentHostname = window.location.hostname;
  const tld = prompt("Please enter the name of the instance to which you are migrating:");
  const table = document.getElementById('community_table');
  const anchorTags = table.getElementsByTagName('a');
  const communityUrls = [];

  for (let i = 0; i < anchorTags.length; i++) {
    const title = anchorTags[i].title.substring(1);
    const parts = title.split('@');
    const community = parts[0].trim();
    const domain = parts[1] ? parts[1].trim() : currentHostname;
    const communityUrl = `https://${tld}/c/${community}@${domain}`;
    communityUrls.push(communityUrl);
  }

  const urlsText = communityUrls.join('\n');

  navigator.clipboard.writeText(urlsText)
    .then(() => {
      alert('Community URLs copied to clipboard!');
    })
    .catch((error) => {
      alert('Failed to copy Community URLs to clipboard:', error);
    });
})();
