I honestly think the whole thing will work out quite nice now that Lemmy and Kbin users can interact with each other.

*just upvotes every post* I’m doing my part too!

[–] Serinus@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Upvote a lot, but try to keep it to the top half of quality. We do want the quality to go up with the number of posts instead of just pure numbers.

If there's anything that keeps me coming back to a platform, it's Simpsons shitposts

In the warmth of last autumn’s embrace, my Reddit account locked in its place.“I’ve argued too much,” I sighed, wearied by battles of digital pride.My wife, her patience thinned, her annoyance kindled like leaves in the wind.In my ear, a constant lament, “Finish your comment, our time’s better spent.”

An unbound screen, my tethered desire, the silence it gave, quenched my heart’s fire.Lurking in shadows, seeking no fame, I found happiness in not playing the game.Less was the time on my phone, more was the peace in our home.

Yet a beacon called, by the name of Lemmy, a new realm in which to spend my penny.Arguing, scarce; engagements, light; but shadows cast in my wife’s sight.My son on his throne, a royal training, my focus faltered, my duty waning.

From her eyes, shifty looks, I received, as if my carelessness, she grieved.My attention lured by the screen’s allure, family moments passing, unsure.A reminder, harsh yet kind, about what’s truly behind the grind.

To balance love, and pixel’s call, a task set out for us all.So I ponder on this digital dance, giving life’s moments more than a glance.In the search for likes and upvotes won, let’s not forget the real-world fun.

================================

This poem was created by gpt 4 based on this true story:

My reddit account got soft locked last fall, i never fixed it because i was spending too much time arguing and my wife was getting annoyed waiting because “i gotta finish this comment” All was fine after, i spend less time on my phone. And just felt a little happier just lurking. Now on Lemmy I haven’t had to really argue with anyone yet, but i have seen some shifty looks from my wife as i was paying more attention to my phone than my son during potty training.

How did you post from kbin.social to lemmy.ml?!?

The magic of the verse baybee

So helpful! I've found it but the image uploader doesn't seem to work on my browser

Click choose file, then browse to the file, once it is selected and you see the filename next to the choose file box you can hit the "add new photo" to post it. The upload button doesn't seem to do anything for me either atm.

New to this, but I think unless there's some blocking done it is indeed possible to post and comment on communities of different instances.

And that's the beauty of this federation thing.

Now, kbin.social, there's a UI you can set your watch to!
