It always annoyed me how the ads were formatted to look like posts, always felt like they were trying to trick people into clicking on it (which honestly that probably is the intent). Feel the same way with ads on Twitter. It’s one thing to show ads and another to format them to try and trick users into clicking on them

Same lol, I was like “why is it going to have a small battery? That seems like an odd choice”

That foon is so cursed lol

I honestly could see the characters saying this lmao. Obviously wouldn’t happen directly in the show but that seems like a very on brand thing for Sweetie Belle to say haha

It’s strange, I’ve seen other instances that have upgraded to 0.18 that have no issues whereas some have issues. I’ve also seen some that aren’t federating even on earlier versions. lemmy.blahaj.zone upgraded to 0.18 but seems to still be federating just fine with Kbin, but lemmy.ml seems super broken with Kbin. Hopefully it gets resolved soon, I’ve run across several communities I want to follow but can’t due to federation being broken

I mean I’d prefer more trans memes showing up on my home page but I don’t mind the stuff here, there is definitely some funny stuff that pops up

Wow OP, that’s super rude of you to call me out like that. /lh /npa

Read that as EPCOT at first and was really confused what a theme park in Florida had to do with the storms in Texas haha

Nope, the wells been poisoned. Even if they did a full 180 and Fired Spez for good measure, they’ve shown their hand. How long before they do it again? Even if all of this was %100 Spezs idea and everyone else in the company opposed it, could we really trust the replacement to never try this or anything similar again? How long before the next CEO decides to try again? What Reddit as a company has proven is that they can’t be trusted, and what we as a community have proved with switching over to Kbin and Lemmy is that we don’t need Reddit. We can make the same content and have the same or in some cases better communities and the beauty of doing it on a platform like this? A greedy corporation can’t destroy it again. Even if a major instance owner goes rogue, we pick up move to another instance and keep going no need to learn a new site no need to rebuild communities. A simple “I’m moving over to this instance!” And that’s it

Everytime I see a video about Framework the more I’m tempted to buy one of their laptops, seems like a great company

Oh gosh right wing TikTok sounds like a nightmare.

Ugh, that’s so annoying. What’s the point of making great products if you’re eventually just going to shut them down?

I’ve heard other similar tools only grab the first 1000 comments/posts does this grab everything? Or does it have a similar limitation?

Yup! No worries! Glad you got it figured out!

On Kbin if the community you want isn’t showing in the magazine list, what you need to do is go to the search bar that searches the whole site and type in the Lemmy community name followed by an @ followed by the instance name. For example: firefox@lemmy.ml

After searching it should come up and you can subscribe to it. It only shows up in the magazines list once someone on the instance subscribes to it, so if you are the first to subscribe to it you have to do a manual search first

Yeah, people really need to get off Reddit. Staying on Reddit and telling mods to close their sub doesn’t help the cause neither does spamming f*** you spez or posting memes. What all that tells Reddit is that you’re going to use the site regardless of whether or not your favorite subs are open or not. It is important for mods to close their subs but it’s just as important for the users to log off and not use Reddit during the protest

I think a lot of it too is people don’t want to lean a new system. I’ve seen multiple big influencers on Twitter basically day they had no interest in using Mastodon because they didn’t want to learn a new platform and so instead the begrudgingly keep using Twitter. People don’t like change and will sometimes torture themselves to avoid it

I know there’s a way to do it on Mastodon, granted your posts don’t move but your profile, followers, and those you follow do move. So I assume something like that would be theoretically possible on Kbin/Lemmy l. Something like this would also be helpful if people just wanted to move to a different instance like if they decide to set up their own instance and move away from the default instance
