Damn this makes me feel old. I'm from before phones had OS.

I guess I'm still in the denial phase. I haven't technically left reddit yet. I guess during the blackout, then I'll really know how I feel without it. I'll definitely have to leave once RIF stops working.

I'm just having a really hard time getting used to kbin and Lemmy.

Okay, so I'm getting that you can follow all of lemmy through kbin, but can you follow all of kbin through lemmy? Because I get the feeling there's magazines you can only subscribe to through kbin.

What I'm getting is that kbin is like a special entrance to, I guess, the feediverse, with some extra "rooms" on it's side of things.

Okay. But if I follow that "The magazine from the federated server may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance" link, on a... magazine(?) I'm subscribed to on kbin, and end up on lemmy, it still says there that I am not subscribed nor loged in. And to comment from there I still need to log in from my lemmy.world account. So at least subscriptions are their own separate thing on lemmy and on kbin, right? Earlier for instance, I was trying to subscribe to The Scary Door magazine, but from lemmy, and I couldn't find how to do it. From the kbin account I could follow it easier.

I guess I'll just stick with the kbin one since things look simpler.

It's turning out confusing. Like I created an account on lemmy.world. Then I saw kbin existed and came over here... or went over there? And created a new account, with the same name. But now I'm seeing that the stuff I comment here... there... on kbin anyway, show up also on lemmy, so now apparently I have two accounts for the same stuff? Except I didn't saw a way from lemmy to log in on kbin with the account from over there. If that's even something that can be done. Kbin looks friendlier. Actually... am I writing this on kbin or on lemmy... what the fuck is going on? Where the hell am I?

Another vote for Terry Pratchett. I also find myself coming back to The Autumn of the Patriarch and A Hundred Years of Solitude over and over. They are not my favorite books, but they are sort of a habit, they're definitely the ones I've re-read the most.
