I like that part too. Makes you engage in the conversation already going and add your own comments to that, rather than repeating the same answer over and over.

I know some folks have used RSS for many things on user accounts as well. Sometimes there could be a reason you cant subscribe to a user or magazine and RSS is a way around that. I subscribe to my mastodon rss feed just for fun too.

using the RSS feed you could link it to a blog or personal website as well and share your posts in a way to others who may not be on the same site as you. Like sharing your posts on your websites so others can see on your site what it is you post so they dont have to have an account as well on kbin for example.

Or you can get a RSS firehose of accounts together to keep up on things outside of the community to ensure you dont miss something in your /m/sub feed.

@ernest Doesnt look like this is valid RSS though. https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkbin.social%2Frss%3Fmagazine%3DkbinMeta

Not sure if that will cause any issues. Didn't know this existed yet! Thanks!

How many are you looking at using for the private beta? Might want to adjust the google form to only allow one signup per account, so users dont reregister.

I signed up! I got into the fediverse and enjoyed it a year ago! I'm using kbin more at the moment and would like to help support the process. Also have a lemmy account as well to test some of the multiaccount features and when users have both lemmy and kbin. You can find me on kbin or mstdn as well!

Thanks for your work in getting the first apps made for these platforms.

I don’t think kbin offers this yet. On mastodon you can add .rss at the end of the username like

https://mstdn.social/@cjerrington.rss

I've been able to see that you can block individual communities on lemmy, but not domains yet.

I agree with them all being federated and being able to use them all. Since I started on kbin, I've been wanting to find groups on kbin and do follow and interact with other federated groups as well. Some of the Lemmy instances and communities seem to have taken off more. Most of what I see on kbin is Lemmy which is a little sad, but glad we can all "talk" together too.

I think the trick now is to help provide the Lemmy and kbin follow links.

for kbinMeta on kbin: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta
for kbinMeta on Lemmy: https://geddit.social/c/kbinMeta@kbin.social or https://{lemmyinstance}/c/magazinename@kbininstancename

Might register before they get taken just in case!

I read this as gedit like the text editor on gnome!
