Hey keebinetters and fediverse, what are your favourite kbin/fediverse magazines (communities)? (kbin.social)

Lets make a thread to post our niches that we have found here. Big magazines are ok too.

I'll start: /m/mechanicalkeyboards, so glad it migrated here!

Edit: You can add a direct fediverse link (so that any users from any fediverse instance looking at this post can click on it) with the following two methods:

Click on the "link" button in the text editor, or manually write in the following format (all together):

[ /m/mechanicalkeyboards ] ( https://kbin.social/m/mechanicalkeyboards )

OR (all together):

@ mechanicalkeyboards @ kbin.social

Edit 2: magazine / community names are case-sensitive apparently, mind the uppercase letters!

I just created a sub for prog rock - hopefully I'm not stepping on anyone's toes. @prog
EDIT: also made a couple more, while I was at it!

Wait…it’s pronounced “keebin”???

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I also pronounce it Kaybin. Seems to make more sense.

How do I search kbin to find communities on Lemmy instances? For the life of me, all I can find are the local kbin magazines. They're great, but I'm newer here and already started participating in communities on beehaw and other instances. I'd like to be able to keep up with those communities too.

Honestly, the redundancy is looking like it's going to be a problem. There's a technology community of some sort on every instance for example. solarpunk, futurology etc.

Anyway, if someone knows the magic syntax where I can find and subscribe to these communities from kbin, I'd really appreciate it!

Edit: I'm an idiot. It looks like all you have to do is search for the right term. IOW, like Technology. So it's not likely that you'll find the exact same community if you don't know the correct community name or a partial name. There's no browsing of a Lemmy instance from what I can tell. Plus, I was using mobile until today. I think on my phone, the location of the community was truncated, so I had no idea that I'd already found the other communities I was already taking part in.

@Futurology
@solarpunk
@art
A few I've found on my travels so far. slrpnk.net is definitely a good place to look for green/sustainable communities.

The links don't work, could you fix them please? I'd like to subscribeto those places!
