Userstyles?

I mean, share?

I don't really; I'm just hedging my bets. I have noticed that kbin doesn't seem to go "down" as often as my Lemmy instance; on the other hand, there are still some bugs going on with kbin and I don't like that you can't yet collapse comments in threads. (unless I've missed something.)

I think Kbin has a lot of potential. I also think changing the name to something more catchy would help it grow more although IDK.

That's because people got their words all mixed up. Back in the day, "is not it" would absolutely be the normal way to phrase "isn't it."

It sounds weird today of course.

Well I'm an idiot lol!

Anyhow, thx for passing my question on haha!

I know you've already done a ton of hard work on this, but are there any plans to try to integrate kbin?

Like, I can view my kbin communities anyway, but I can't moderate one from mlmym/lemmy.blahaj, for example.

If not, no biggie. Really like the interface for now.

To add to that, there was a bit of a time limit in which we had reason to believe we needed to secure the name so that it wouldn't be taken by certain persons and then just sat upon with no activity.

Yeah that's a good option that I WISH Reddit had... had. But only for the creator maybe?

By the way I'm commenting this on the mlmym thing you made!

Re: the rules on the side: "Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone."

Some instances have "alternate text" boxes that don't show up for everyone but allow screen readers to read it, but if not, just put it in the body. Or as a comment.

It's alternate text for people with visual impairments/screen readers.

I wrote it.

It's still lacking the collapse a comment ability! I am like when are they going to fix that?

But it's a much much newer instance. We'll see, but I think it has potential.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It's a good idea actually and I could see maybe having some different mods and/or handing over one to someone else at some point.

What's wrong with subscribing to both? Then you'd have both in your feed; you wouldn't have to go anywhere.

But yeah we also wanted to make sure to get the name in a couple of places. Didn't expect our resignation letters & whatnot to go a bit more public and get influxes of users and all.
