    Actually, there are more cases of domestic violence than false accusations. How come we’re not worried about false accusations of robbery when they happen at the same rate as false accusations of sexual assault? Trust me, there are not karens lurking in every corner trying to make fake reports.

    In our society where sexual assault is underreported, and one in 4 women experience domestic violence, why are you putting a comment that wouldn’t help this society improve on this front?

    @piotrsikora @ernest Is there an easy way to add all the new communities to an instance? I’ve noticed somehow you’ve been able to add what looks like every magazine, even if it’s newly created.

    I could help add new magazines to a new instance others can migrate to, but there’s so many, and I don’t know how to keep up with any new ones created on lemmy or kbin.

    I try to give time and patience to kbin because it’s actually only a month old xD I think it’s this guy called ernesto and some of his friends that are developing for it. They have to fix a lot of things on the site because it’s still in a prototype mode. They work very fast though but yeah I think they’re going as fast as humanly possible right now. I’m glad there is an app being made already right now for both lemmy and kbin.

    Yeah I have noticed on lemmy.studio, a newer server, some of the communities from either kbin or lemmy didn’t update, but then after some time, som of them diiid update, with I think all of the old posts, and even if those old posts didn’t have comments. So maybe that’s why it happened for me but some are still unupdated

    I feel like it’s not that bad to be uniform in some ways though. There’s lots of different email sites, but the way they’re organized/labelled is very similar.

    I feel like if you want that kind of beautiful system where everything’s decentralized yet still able to talk to each other, then it’s better if some things are standard.

    Even the general strategy kbin,lemmy, mastodon use have similarities to be able to talk to each other. They’re all on the fediverse.observer where we can see all their stats in one place. There was uniformity in a good balance. All three of these use activity pub, which I hear is a good thing. If not, I think there would be less synchronization? And then people might say, hey, we should let everyone develop the way they like, and it’s true, but there’s a good benefit in making some stuff the same

    I agreee. With email, there’s different email websites I can use, but it would put me off if I made a gmail account, and everything was labelled differently there compared to thte other email websites.

    Like if inbox was called something really strange, I just think it would put me off a lot. I use kbin, and even I think it would help if these were renamed. Kbin is new too! Only a month old, so I don’t even know if the developers felt strongly about calling it a magazine or just needed to label all of these in a way that made sense to them.

    But yeah I try to be inclusive and use “communities/magazines” but it feels kind of ridiculous because it’s so long. I don’t even like “communities” because it is so long to type…I like “forums” for both. It makes sense because they are forums, and it’s short. I don’t mind “communities” though, and it would be so great if kbin wants to consider relabelling, but they technically also don’t have to and I still will use it.

    But I still think it’s the smart thing to do to make it easier for others to use. Should try to decrease friction so people can use their tool to do other things, rather than spend so much time figuring out how to use the tool.

  • If Reddit phased out 3rd party apps gradually and tactfully, do you think this would have gone the way it has? The Reddit app is terrible, but is it any worse than navigating and learning the fedivers

    If this stuff hadn’t happened, I wouldn’t even known how theyve been treating the mods badly since forever xD I definitely would have kept using the app, I was starting to do a lot of doomscrolling on there. I just didn’t know there was anything wrong with the company.

    However, them messing up like this opened me to the idea of a social media that isn’t for profit. Even if this stuff hadn’t happened, it would happen later. It happens to all the social medias, and it happened to twitter. Because of this event this time, I learned the term “enshittification”, and I think it’s eventually not possible for the social media companies to continue to be profitable without hurting the user experience more and more.

    It’s great to me that this stuff with reddit happened because more is gonna happen anyway. If they get to ipo, they’ll probably give more ads, they’ll probably try to push it even more as a tik tok/youtube shorts experience, which I still think those platforms overtake reddit on this field anyway.

    I never thought a social media that isn’t for profit was possible and it’s exciting to me that it might be the direction we go in. I’m excited for both fediverse stuff and also the wikipedia non profit app “trust cafe” wt___something.

    Currently it's more work probably than it should be to do this, so for newer people, it's recommended they stay on large instances like lemmy.world or kbin.social to have the communities searchable.

    If you're on a newer server, you can add the community you want.

    Click Search (the site, not search for the community)
    enter the whole url of the community you wanted - eg. https://kbin.social/m/Frenchies
    Click enter and wait for a bit until it's able to find the community and you can hit subscribe button.

    It's easy to do, but nothing on the UI helps you find the communities without extra knowledge, so if you're newer, it's a better experience to stay on the larger servers

    I don't knoww haha, because I would have to check on the original instance, and most of the time I just subscribe and move on.
    I think on kbin.social one of the developers is adding the new communities very quickly so the display name is based on the address one.

    This is what it looks like on kbin.social - https://kbin.social/m/adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com

    When I do search on kbin.social however for a community, ones on lemmy won't show with the display name anyway I think; it will show the address like "adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com"

    I was able to find and add this community because of a reddit migration directory to show me this community is for adhdmemes :)

    Is it possible to rename the display name for this magazine to "ADHD memes"? The original instance updated the display name, but the address will always be the same.

    Forum on the original instance is here https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/adhd

    @db0

    Sorry if it's not allowed to post like this (just lmk and I'll delete, or feel free to delete), but do you think it would be a good idea to rename this community to something like "adhdmeme"? I'm browsing from kbin.social, where the name is just "adhd", which makes it hard for me to differentiate if the post on my feed is coming from lighter forum, or if it's from this slightly more serious forum also called adhd (but from kbin)

    That's a weird bug. If you set this one - Notify me of new threads in a subscribed magazine - even that one doesn't show notifications? But I guess it's weird it's not notifying you of my replies to you, it should at least do that. If I didn't get notifications of your responses, there's no way I'd be able to know about it I think :/ Sorry you're experiencing this.

    Is there any way to get all the past posts of a community where I'm the first to subscribe/adding it to my instance? If there is, then that's really great, but if there isn't it's sounding like a con to me, of making an account on a newer instance.

    Add another sort to the magazines section to sort by number of threads (to help find magazines from other aggregators)

    Sorry if this isn't the right place to add this post. If I've put it in the wrong place, feel free to let me know the correct magazine. I noticed that the on the list of Magazines section here: [https://kbin.social/magazines](https://kbin.social/magazines), the "hot" tab shows mostly the kbin magazines. This made me sometimes subscribe to a magazine where the other aggregator like Lemmy already had a duplicate(same purpose). The kbin version of the magazine shows up first since it has more subscribers, even though the other version on Lemmy has more Threads. One example I can give is the magazines/communities Anime@kbin.social and anime@lemmy.ml. When I search for "anime", and sort by "hot", the kbin version shows up first even though it has about half as many threads because it has much more subscribers. I guess what I'm trying to say is, maybe it would be nice if I could sort the list of Magazines by number of threads too, rather than only the number of subscribers. After all, the anime@lemmy.ml has like 3000 subscribers on lemmy.ml, but it has only 200 on kbin. If I could sort by number of threads a magazine has, then I might be able to find the other options of magazines. I thought there was only one magazine for "gaming" but actually there are two, and they cover the same exact topic. If I only subscribed to the "gaming" on kbin, then I would be missing out on the content from lemmy users. It might help get more unified on the fediverse. It's great if there's two "gaming" communities/mags that cover different things, but I think for this case, people would want to be able to see the threads/posts from both (and ideally not have to subscribe to both to not miss out due to misunderstanding)

    How can I add a community that's from kbin? Also, if I add a community from a different aggregator like kbin to my lemmy account, will that make it available for everyone on lemmy to find?

    I've heard you can do a google search and append say kbin.social to get results just from kbin, but if I wanted to treat the fediverse's content like reddit's, is there a way to do the google search on just everything that's on the fediverse? edit: I've been hearing people will want to make search tools to help us search the fediverse, and in the future even give us options on our servers to opt out of being indexed if we want. Also this is a search site someone else recommended where you can choose which search engine to search the fediverse: [https://fedi-search.com](https://fedi-search.com)
