Same, it’s hard not to use Reddit for searches.

I searched for recommendations for parking in a somewhat random area - and turns out there were five other posts with similar questions and about 6 clear cut comments from people who knew the area.

I won’t be active though - so good luck to them with new and interesting content. That’s where I’m here for now and it’s already giving the fix at a beginner stage in development.

I prefer referring to my moderators as doors instead of keys, which are also far more gestational.

Happy Birthday to all fathers - the lore tells a tale of a great migration of tribeless males, hand in hand they walked towards the original all-women tribe of Vaginxanestrogentalia. They were finally ready to mate and progress the species. This was on Jin (olde Engrish for June) 18th, -4209 STE (Starceptor Time E-Slot). This is a time to remember who we are, and, what will become.

For science only, I would like to have the chance to understand wherever you folks seem to get these nfsw content on your main page (or sidebar? I don’t even know where that exists)

Please, please help me avoid such content by telling me where to find it so then I can never go there and only understand better in what framework such content would exist

Honestly, I don’t get any of this on my main (Local) feed

This might actually get my gf to join and attempt to understand the Fediverse.

Plc haff dis kbinnnibinni - my girlfriend probably (not me, I’d never ever talk like that ever)

It’s wild that it’s not even exclusive, that’s crazy.

I guess though is XQC is a gambler, right? So I’m guessing that he’ll have a bunch of times where he’s only on Kick then

Not that Twitch chat is a flawless representation of a streamer’s overall value, but just being in XQC’s chat it’s wild how many people are actually engaged and chatting. It seems like a lot of people there are only there for X.

On the flip side I remember times going into Ninja’s (same with Shroud) where there’s 30k viewers or something nuts but the chat might be scrolling slower than a mid-sized streamer’s. Just seems like more people will actually go to Kick (less professional, more “go wild”) than in the former cases with Mixer (more corporate, professional). Just my opinion tho - no bias here

That federation button switched to “off” will not show content on home feed from the other instances.

I had the same question and posted it in meta, a kind user let me know and it works great. I prefer kbin’s feed.

The moderated, reasonable stance is that everyone is right! Beehaw probably could have done things differently, including making a stickied post that they don’t want to be the default large instance, and/or acquired a lot more mods to manage the federation of other large instances. On the other hand, Lemmy doesn’t have the same principles as Beehaw and prioritized the growth of their userbase over a filtering system. To you it looks like one is worse than the other, that’s because you want to see content from everywhere and don’t share the principles of the other federation - so you’re probably not a good fit for Beehaw atm (and if anyone is blindsided, I don’t get it… I could see it written all over Beehaw that they are trying to promote certain principles over growth, I don’t share in those principles but I can respect that they were direct about it).

Everyone on the Fediverse should expect to see instances un/re-federate several times over especially in the growing stages. The critique is fine but it should definitely be tempered with reasonable expectations and not unnecessary ridicule.

The idea that people are missing content on Lemmy/Beehaw/Kbin instances that get defederated are looking at this from a “this should be super convenient” mentality which, convenience is why Reddit expects you’ll go back. Quality of content, genuine community-building, and/or responsible upper management doesn’t have as much value there, it is inherent in them being a VC, convenience is what matters most on Reddit/TikTok/Twitter/etc.

On the Fediverse, the one thing that should be said more is that the instance you join, you should prepare to be involved locally through that instance more than anything else. The idea you can or should just join anywhere was something I wrong wrong about, as was much of the Reddit people saying “join Lemmy it doesn’t matter where, it’s all federated.” I don’t blame them or myself, it’s a newer concept and nuance is lost at the entry- level to anything. If people were coming to the Fediverse for fully federated, more convenient content than they should try Mastadon, because they’re farther along and had their own issues to deal with during the Twitter migration that propelled them much like these instances that are still growing and learning will, in time.

Eventually I think migrating communities will be a simple task. I’d love all my favorite sports communties to have an active place on kbin.

Tangent: my feeling rn is anything completely non-political should be on kbin. I’m not bashing Lemmy oe anyone else for their political stance - I probably agree with most of it - but it’s also what a casual user is going to be turned off by and it’s not what I want to be a deciding factor in wether or not a community of [x] fans is united by. Maybe it’s just cuz I’m a casual fan of a lot of sports, and/or I am someone who uses sports as a means to escape the bullshit.

Anyways, a welcome sight to see F1 on Kbin. Now someone get the NFL and Soccer and I’m good.
