Are kbin or Lemmy posts being indexed by search engines? If the content was created, would anyone be able to find it?

I tried a lot, but Toot! is the best of the bunch.

I do wish kbin looked a bit better on mobile, though. I have larger font on my iPhone and instead of wrapping, the text just goes off the screen and can't be viewed.

I work for the military. The only part of that community that regularly gets made fun of and shit on are the transformers. No one cares who’s packing who’s butt or tickling who’s bush. But dicks out in the female latrine is offensive.

I started using RSS again when I realized that I was done with Twitter. Inoreader has been pretty useful for me. I like that it syncs to my iPhone.

Other instances can see you too. And other Fediverse based platforms. This thread is trending on kbin.social for example, which is where I’m posting from.

What's a tankie?

Death

Lemmy devs aren't great people anyway, in terms of who you want to be developing software. Anyone that would think hardcoding word censorship into their software because it's theirs has a few screws loose, so I wouldn't put it past them to have done this intentionally.

What if they actually just want responses from people on Lemmy, though?

I got some bootleg Airpods from Temu that my iPhone recognizes and treats as Airpods. I call them my Airpuds. LOL. But, tbh, the audio quality is on par with my wife's actual Airpods. The construction isn't as solid and I wouldn't sweat on them much, but for 20 bucks, I'm happy with them.

I found this because I have the same concern. I should be positive 35, not -7. The reputation system as currently implemented doesn't produce a reasonable result. I look like a troll to anyone who sees my profile.

This would have been better if they had created a Federated platform so we could subscribe to it from here. I'm tired of using a dozen apps to do basically the same thing.

beehaw has defederated lemmy.world.

Artemis is supposed to support kbin and Lemmy. If it doesn't support Lemmy right away, then it wouldn't help to register on a Lemmy instance, because Artemis still wouldn't support Lemmy.

You're right that you can't sign into a Lemmy instance with your kbin credentials. Each site is it's own site. If something is posted on lemmy.world, it sends a notice to kbin.social and kbin.social fetches the info and publishes it locally on kbin as well. Comments on the kbin post are sent back to lemmy.world. There's basically a copy of the post and comments on every server. Not every server will "know" about every other server though, so content could push across the entire federated network slowly sometimes.

I'm glad you think so. Please see the attached screenshot for an example of what I'm talking about. I'd like to have the text one size bigger so I can read it more easily, but then whole words are cut off or missing.

Kbin is a weird implementation. I think anything you post here is accessible by someone with a Mastodon account, but it wouldn’t show up for them the way we see it here. It would just look like random posts like in Twitter. I haven’t used kbin enough to even try, but theoretically you could subscribe to a Mastodon user and see their posts from here. Probably in the microblog tab.

Yes, and all of those links on those news areas put users on the news sites.

I disagree with the use of "Christian Right" in the headline. This isn't really about religion. These positions have been GOP positions for a long time.

Affirmative action itself was racist by definition, because it discriminated solely based on skin color. It needed to go. There are problems with certain minorities making it into higher education, but that can be solved by changing how taxes are distributed to schools, not by letting unqualified people into college programs.

Student loan forgiveness was a joke from the start. If you didn't want to pay back the loans, you shouldn't have taken them. If the issue is the cost of higher education, then we should focus on passing legislation restricting the amount that can be charged for college tuition.

Regarding the cake issue, you can't compel speech, and last I checked, art was considered speech. So, decorating a cake in a specific way is speech that can't be compelled. This isn't 1850. There's more than one baker in town. If you don't like the policies of a particular bakery, go to the next one. The hyperbolic responses about "No Jews allowed" is ridiculous, because that would be religious discrimination, which is a separate issue. Also, it seems a little wild to accuse the Christian Right of not supporting Jews (Israel).
