kbin.social administration controls only what is published on kbin.social, and what content from elsewhere kbin.social users can see. An user banned from kbin.social can make another account, on another site and start recreate there his banned community. kbin.social will be able to ban this remote user and remote community, but this restricts only what kbin.social users can see.

Exactly the same for another /kbin or lemmy site - just replace the domain name accordingly.

Internet Exploring

You could peek at two opposing views on the same article, for example.

Post-truth as a service.

Yes, the developer of /kbin is Polish.
Lolicon is illegal in Poland.

What chmod step?

When I clicked on new app image, the OS told me, that program /name of app/ will be launched, I clicked "Continue" and it runs! No meddling with "chmod" or anything like that.

Wikipedia is not a Big Tech nor a commercial enterprise prone to enshittification nor it profits from surveillance capitalism. We don't need another, competing, universal source of enclopedical information. Wikipedia, on contrary to X, Reddit, Facebook, etc. is not going anywhere. Any self-styled Wikipedia alternative ended up dead, thematic, or biased by design.

However there are many thematical and fan wikis hosted on Fandom, which itself is a commercial company and there were already some contoversies concerning it. Wikis on Fandom are very resource-intensive compared to Wikipedia or independent thematical wikis.

Ability to edit at several wikis from the same account without being tied to Fandom could be one of things that Ibis offers and could benefit independent wiki sites.

And of course, MediaWiki is free software and federation could be added as a functionality.

Its federation. Even to that point, than I can reply to you when not using Lemmy at all. I am writing this from /kbin.

For example, Threads supports audio posts, a feature not currently supported within ActivityPub(...)

Laughs in Funkwhale, Castopod, and even any ActivityPub platform implementing an Audio object type

Wired checked no Meta claim against reality.

Socialhome with its tiled display of posts
Bonfire, which is modular, and will be available in many flavours (for Open Science, organisations or simply a social network)
Mobilizon - events and groups.
Gancio - events, published anonymously. Instance can be followed from Fediverse as an account.
Bookwyrm for books
Postmarks - a federated bookmarking website
Funkwhale - for uploading and listening to music
Castopod - Wordpress but for podcasting?
Misskey and its forks - more than Twitter emulation - includes emoji reactions and animated text!

ඞ

This is not an exhaustive list. For example, Instagram Threads profiles are available from kbin.social, which is not listed here, though.

/kbin has got Collections, and PieFed has got topics. You may check either out.

fyi, /s is sarcasm switch

/kbin is already on Codeberg.org and all issues are posted there

Authorised Fetch existed long before Instagram Threads. When it is turned on, an instance will require any other server to sign their request to fetch any post. This prevents "leaking" of posts via ActivityPub to blocked instances.

This setting is turned off by default, because some software are incompatible with it (like /kbin, Pixelfed before June 2023, maybe Lemmy too), because it makes server load higher, and it may make some replies missing (at least on microblogging side).

I do not see any killer feature of Firefox right now. Even the Mozilla's official browser comparison site indicates Microsoft Edge being on par with Firefox, based on Mozilla's own criteria!
This will change in the future. Firefox will be the only major web browser on Android with full-fledged addon support.
I am already using some extensions on Vivaldi (like Consent-o-Matic, some transliteration addons), but this could make me switch to Firefox.

This time, another official /kbin server, in Polish (karab.in) was working during all the kbin.social's sleep.

I will repost my comment from https://kbin.social/m/fediverse@lemmy.world/t/838165/What-s-going-on-with-kbin-social

This time is probably unrelated to @ernest's supposed inactivity. Actually, his another /kbin server, https://karab.in has been brought back on 15 of February.

Why not kbin.social? Well, this server is co-administered by FTdL (Technology for People Foundation) (https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/177112).

Entire FTdL infrastructure was down from 16 o'clock in Cracow to this morning.

There can be only one per post?

That is a magazine (like on /kbin), not a hashtag!

I still remember the times, when /kbin consisted mainly of @ernest's science links and federated Lemmy posts. When /kbin was aimed to become an all-encompassing frontpage of the Fediverse, with all content from Mastodon, Lemmy, PeerTube, Mobilizon, Friendica, Pixelfed and other fedi software to become, at a glance. When the most exciting thing was the accessibility of new Fedi content types, on the same app. Semantic Web, but determined by folksonomy and decentralised.

And now, having a community? having to listen to them? being simply a Reddit replacement? Seriously? I did not consent to that! /s

Proposed solution 2: Multi-communities

They are already implemented on /kbin - as Collections

You mean lemm.ee, huh? :)

Nobody on a Lemmy instance is able to follow accounts (like on Mastodon or /kbin). Thus, Lemmy will not fetch anything from Mastodon unless written specifically to a threadiverse community (and the community being CCed). Because of this, Lemmy instance are less harmful, than (potentially) any microblogging server (be it Mastodon, Pleroma, Soapbox, *key, etc.)

System Settings → Appearance → Cursor Theme → Configure Launch Feedback

@skullgiver

"(...)Just like Lemmy won’t support Place objects, I’m not sure if any other platform will ever support Page objects, because Pages are much bigger in scope than anything most Fediverse applications ever deal with."

Article or Page objects are supported not only by Lemmy and /kbin (and Mastodon, but as link). It is a default object type on WriteFreely, can be used on WordPress, and is compatible with Friendica. Hometown (a Mastodon fork) also renders Pages and Articles in their entirety.

@feditips @fediverse @FediFollows @mention @masimatutu

PeerTube

List of instances, which will block Threads, listed by MAU

None of these instances are Lemmy (or anything other on threadiverse)

kbin.social is in particular situation, as it is the only top 15 server by monthly users, which is not Mastodon. The only Fediverse instances bigger than kbin.social, are:

• mastodon.social

• pawoo.net (Japanese, Sujitech)

• (a lolicon server)

• (two fake and one sus Russian instances).

Every other Fediverse server has less monthly users.

It tempts to try federation with Meta, mainly to try Threads' handling of the real threading app.
Meta is going to embrace ActivityPub with Threads by Instagram. Are we (free Fediverse users, creators, programmers, etc.) able to extend, and extinguish Meta's app?
Different Fedi software support articles, threading, formatting, fancy formatting (Misskey-Flavoured Markdown), video, events. I doubt, that new Facebook's app would support all of these at once.

There is already a Meetup alternative - Mobilizon

They don't federate yet.

KDE does exactly like that
(I am using MX Linux)

Less like a prison. You can actually exit them and join another instance.

You may want to browse microblog tab on /kbin (which shows Mastodon, Misskey, etc. toots/tweets/notes/whatever there) to make an opinion for yourself.
Individual magazines have their own microblog sections (like photography)

Up- and downvoting the same comment of yours at the same time? This is illegal! /s

Majority of these 300 instances actually are Mastodon and other microblogging instances.
They likely have imported a Mastodon-tailored blocklist at some point.

I was looking for recommendations for alternative instances… I’d appreciate anyone actually responding to my comment.

OK.

Largest Lemmy instances blocking Instagram Threads are (according to fedipact.veganism.social) lemmy.ml, lemm.ee, lemmy.ca, Hexbear, feddit.de, Beehaw, Lemmygrad, lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.blahaj.zone, discuss.tchncs.de, sopuli.xyz, aussie.zone, feddit.nl, lemmy.zip, midwest.social, feddit.uk, mander.xyz, ...

Now available as a table!
