Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

And I’m just sitting here waiting for a Bluesky invite.
Boring platform, imoho. Fedi integration isn't done, tons of high profile accounts that don't give a fuck about you, and not public.
Exactly. Also it’s like escaping a planet about to be eaten by a giant space frog only to settle on another planet in the flight path of the same space frog and then being like “wow this place is great right now”
Even if it’s boring, I want to give it a try. I already have mastodon and lemmy to keep entertained but wouldn’t mind just checking it out.
I’ve got five if you want one!
Same, LOL. I want it to grow so that it's worth spending time there though.
Sure!
Others have commented that it’s no better. But I’d still like to try it out!
Thanks!
I just realized I have no idea how to send messages in kbin so I can send you the code. I’ll pop it in here, and hopefully you’ll get it and no one will snipe it. If someone does, message me and I’ll give you another code. bsky-social-gzfm2-2azpl
It seems someone has used it up. It’ll have to be a private message
I’ve got 4 more, so BOO to the jerk who used it, but I still got you. Send me a message or give me your Mastodon info, and I’ll get one to you.
I’ll ping you on mastodon
And here’s the jerk who stole your code. All they had to do was ask and I’d have given them a code, but no, they had to be why the internet is shit.
Pinged you. It’s my same handle as here on mastodon
I just sent you a DM on Mastodon with a code. 👍🏼
Don’t see it yet. This is so weird… Can you see my ping?

I didn’t, and the link you gave didn't go anywhere. I sent it to https://programming.dev/u/charlybones
Oh sorry! Send it on mastodon instead. Use @[email protected]
I don’t think lemmy has DMs yet
Just sent a code!
