/kbin

I've had a number of items I've wanted to save for future reference. I can't seem to find an option on the Furefox mobile site that allows me to do that.

Sure I can open in browser and bookmark, but I'd rather they all be under my account here.

Thanks in advance.

I'm curious about the demographic makeup of Kbin. As we are still in it's infancy I feel that most lean towards a certain way, so I made this survey just now to find out. I encourage you to join in, and you can skip any and every question if you so choose. You can view the results at the bottom of the page.

So i've been hoping onto the Random Magazines I find the look of on Kbin but a lot of them seem to be empty and made over a month ago, Why is this?

#kbin

When I first joined Kbin I didn't think nothing of it, I had already been enjoying and using Lemmy as well as Mastodon and other parts of the Fediverse, So I knew what I was roughly getting into but didn't release how much Kbin had to offer.

So here coming up to hour 24 of my experience so far I hope to keep on using this platform into the future. First of all Kbin is a bit more complex than just another Reddit clone as it brings both Reddit's 'Alternative' Lemmy as well as Twitters 'Alternative' Mastodon together in one place.

If you want to do a Mastodon / Twitter like post use the Microblogging feature but if you want to do a Lemmy / Reddit like post use the Threads Tab. This is one thing I was confused about and guessed wrong the first time I used the site.

What about Magazines, Well I'm not a huge fan of the name Magazines and much prefer the Lemmy name for them Communities, These are like Subreddits in Reddit. After using these for a while I started trying to find some of the Lemmy communities I enjoyed on there, Sadly if someone hasn't tried finding it before it's hard to find and once you do it doesn't have any previous posts making it have no content on it to being with.

What about the People Tab? Well the people section is great, if you like seeing what someone talks about you can check out there profile and follow them allowing you to keep up with what they get up too.

There's also some other cool features that really sealed the deal for me such as the Statistics Tab in Settings allowing you to look at how many Posts, Comments and Votes you've had across your profile, Also if your an Ex-Reddit user don't worry there's Reputation or as you knew it as, Karma allowing each person to have a usefulness score on the platform.

For my 24 hrs on a new platform, I'm glad i've learned so much and hope to keep using the platform into the future, I'm glad I will be able to have friends message through other Fediverse Instances like Mastodon or Lemmy allowing them to have there preferred platform it makes me feel as if the Fediverse is what the Internet was always meant to be.

I would love to hear about your experiences across the Fediverse.

As current state, even within Fediverse, browsing contents from other Fediverse like Mastodon still does not feel quite the same. Of course, It's a different social media platform so it's expected that, you will need 1 Reddit account and 1 Twitter account. But in Fediverse, do we need to do the same?

That includes images, and both on mobile and PC.

I'm a bit confused at the explosive growth of Lemmy and the slower growth of Kbin. Do the stats reflect the reality or is there a problem with the data being fed back to the various stat hubs?

I know the difference is partly because Lemmy was a larger platform, and is better known but the growth of Kbin seems suprisingly flat while the community seems to be getting more and more active?

I'm sorry to post this here, this might be the wrong place so please redirect me to a more appropriate magazine.

On Reddit (LinkedIn is even worse if I'm being honest) you would constantly see screenshot of tweets but never a link to the tweet themselves.

kbin would probably save a lot of bandwidth doing this, and it'd make the experience much more pleasant for those who want to follow the object of the screenshot's discussion.
