But it's just not the same. There are no apps. The format is not reader-friendly. Usability is way low.

Hang in there, there’s an app Artemis coming in the next couple of weeks. I believe it’ll be a public beta so prob lots of QOL thinks to work out, but it’s coming.

Separately, I am personally perfectly OK if kbin is not like the Reddit experience in terms of community and content. I prefer it that way.

Love that I can hop over to kbin (or vice versa) when this stuff happens.

Yeah I could have worked on my own tl;dr phrasing a bit. Thanks for the comment!

What we all know is these types of bigots are on the outs. Shame the fuck out of them, they don’t do anything positive for your communities. They are wildly thrashing (with seemingly powerful national voices). They will never completely go away but they are reacting to a change in the norms that’s been coming for decades.

It’s hard to read anything about this guy and not think immediately… Fuck this dude. I know there are tens of thousands of employees behind him but still I just can’t help it.

Yeah I didn’t get my point across very well. I was thinking about folks that ignore the tl;dr

Creating the feeling of body ownership. Trippy and makes me jump every time.

I suppose I’m aiming at a middle ground where yes things can be summarized… but also take a look too, it’s interesting, I want to know what you think after scanning.

 

I need a quippy response to say it’s not that bad, I promise, google or click the link and scan it. Then let’s chat about what you think

severe mental illnesses such as bipolar disorder or psychosis.

Yes!! I don’t have anything insightful to add, just here to share this is awesome news.

More about xAI in general than the diversity thing. Maybe both.

A Traverse City hair salon is receiving backlash after announcing on social media that its business will no longer serve transgender and queer people.

"If a human identifies as anything other than a man/woman please seek services at a local pet groomer," Studio 8 Hair Lab stated in a now deleted Facebook post. "You are not welcome at this salon. Period. Should you request to have a particular pronoun used please note we may simply refer to you as 'hey you.' "

Numerous individuals voiced their disapproval online, accompanied by screenshots of the original post. One user expressed their shock, stating, "Comparing people to dogs?? It's disgusting!"

Splatoon fans? (kbin.social)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by numbscroll@kbin.social to c/gaming@kbin.social
 

The Kbin Splatoon community is kinda quiet, do we have more Splatoon fans out there on Kbin or elsewhere? I found a good Lemmy spot too.

 

Seemed like emojis in posts / comments would get downvoted to oblivion on Reddit. I don’t see the same thing on Kbin (or other instances / services).

 

LPTR: fastest way to fall asleep?

More info: I’ve tried a few methods, including devices out of reach with no light, and breathing techniques. Breathing seems to be closest but I seem to have a hard time getting to a point where my breaths really slow down and relax.

So I’m still getting the hang of the fediverse, and really enjoying my time here. This may be helpful for new people trying to figure out their setup.

-Pixelfed is your instagram: I joined Pixelfed.social since in general I am trying to see how the largest communities play out

-Kbin or lemmy is your Reddit. Again I joined kbin.social, but these communities all talk (or “federate”) to each other so it’s a matter of personal preference if you want to join the main .social or find an alt instance that feels more like you’re kinda stuff

-Mastadon is your twitter (I’m sure there are others, I’m just not a big twitter style person). Honestly I wasn’t a big twitter person anyway, but a cool thing about ActivityPub is you can see things from kbin, pixelfed, etc from any one of them. It’s not always clean but it’s pretty dam cool

I wish all well in their journey across the threadiverse. It really does seem awesome even if it’s taking some time to build up with users and content.
