A magazine is like a Reddit subreddit or Lemmy community.

A collection is a way to view multiple magazines in one feed. /c/Technology, for example, has a bunch of tech magazines. That way, you can view all the tech news in the fediverse without having to go to separate magazines.

Rn, I'm just on kbin.earth (another Kbin instance that's much more stable than kbin.social rn). Working great for me.

I'm not a linguist, but here's my guess.

Take these sentences where a similar thing happens.

  • "Look out the window."
  • "I'm heading to the gym."
  • "You should hold the door for people."
  • "You need a trip to the barber."

In these cases, the noun isn't actually that important, more than it is what you're doing with the noun. These nouns represent the general act of doing something, and I guess since that action is a singular specific thing, we use "the".

This applies to "Look in the mirror." The actual mirror doesn't really matter much. The focus is on the general act of looking at your clear reflection.

I know everyone else has said these exact words, but glad that you're feeling better!

It's good to see that you're looking into delegating tasks. It's important for others to be able to pick things up whenever you're unavailable, unwell, or just exasperated. Alongside getting more instance admins, I'd also recommend getting other moderators on the magazines you own (e.g., /m/tech). The spam on those can get really bad, so there should be a few active magazine moderators to deal with those.
