For sure for sure. It's just those big instances have to be proactive also but that's definitely a sample of a long term modding headache for sure

It's the soapbox syndrome kot. My mutuals and i here were talking it over, what made redditors more willing to stick but not Twitterjaya and we figured, having islands like these instances or communities isn't so different as subs. But also because the social incentives are different. Over there you pose and flex on your soapbox regularly enough you get followers. Over on the more forum setups, you just naikkan the forum's energy, and ppl flock to the forum not the user necessarily. 24/7 rap battle over there, otoh.

@macallik
Absolutely. If this is true then for the other small to mid-size instances it's not just an existential threat philosophically but technically. They're expecting Threads onboarding might just knock out instances because of the traffic. Might as well limit or block just for your own performance metrics.

@YourClarke hahaha don't worry. I've really only been on Fedi since Nov 22 and kbin at the same time as you guys set up this Lemmy instance. I think the redditors will get the hang of it, certainly faster than Twitterjaya (I'm in perma-eyeroll mode since you guys arrived, because those are my gang. I'm even here cos someone made a big fuss about Elon. Guess where they are at now? Twitter ppl are babies. Mastodon as a platform was at least a few years old and they whined so much. Boo hoo have to pick instance, dunno who to talk to, feed so empty blablabla. But look at you guys! Most of the two major protocols are still held together by string lmao and you make it work.)

The main thing about Fedi protocols is that janji we can roughly talk to each other. Some functionalities across the microblogs pun not shared (I've only mentioned a couple), but it's doable, we make it work. Since joining my to-read tabs blew up and there's less Main Character discourse. So it's been a real nice change. But i was missing Malaysia content and community A LOT (hence my eyeroll at Twitterjaya). The current kbin state of things pun (like how when I'm logged on my kbin.social account i can see who upvoted) is probably because of what i explained above but also it's not even three months old. Lmao the dev is just some Polish kid. Lemmy is much older but a lot of ppl avoided because the main instance and devs are full-on tankies. The Reddit wave made it moot since you can always 1) make your instance; 2) fork the programme if tak puas hati with those devs and maintain your own codebase.

In any case for your example you get Lemmy features when your account is on an instance running Lemmy and kbin when otherwise but not both at the same time. Takpe, it's not gonna be too hard. And besides monyet.cc is set up, so at least you know how to hang out here. And from here, if you're signed in as monyet.cc accounts, you absolutely can find other comms such as kbin ones too. Can one can one :)

@unhedged Alamak, it was auto-tagged on my end (as the creator of the thread). And lol, you're basically saying conventional wisdom about his output tbh. The sober era one i like most is really his non-fiction On Writing.

@unhedged ya, a lot of people speculate (i think he also confirmed a bit), a lot of The Shining was him working out how he could see he was also being a destructive force on his family. I think the fact was picked up by Kubrick, but his rendition of that, King famously hated.

@imaginelizard

Betrayed by autocorrect, i wanted to say ok sekian lmao

@imaginelizard @dcx @Annoyed_Crabby

@imaginelizard wah lau buka sembang right at midnight ka

@imaginelizard and the 'good' years are the ones slightly less red

@driftwoodmalaysian oh sure but it picks up all the ads too and penat having to strip them all when it's long form article. It's the one thing that annoys me about subscribing to Mkini. I'm already paying you!

@DerpyPoint

Forgot to add, sometimes the full URL search is better if you suspect no one from the instance has subscribed yet (so the community isn't fully fetched even though technically in the federation) but once someone subscribes that instance should have it

@imaginelizard @Annoyed_Crabby

@Annoyed_Crabby how did you do your search? One way that's mostly foolproof is locate the full URL and copy then paste on the search bar of the instance you're logged into. Basically you shouldn't need to have another login
