They’re always active with their own mastodon server & proving (no strings attached) funds for the development (along with some other ActivityPub projects if I’m not mistaken).

Could not agree more!

Oddly enough that trick didn't work on Fedia.io (Kbin server), where [email protected] works....
Is there a similar trick for Kbin?

Thank you so much! That worked perfectly - I've done it now on a couple of Lemmy servers, so it'll show up there by default now.
Only Lemmy.ml didn't work, but that's ok!

 

So, I'm very confused! I've got 2 questions:

https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] works
https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] works
but
https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
doesn't!
(Here's the direct Kbin link: https://kbin.social/m/Amsterdam )

Why could that be? What settings would I need to change to make my magazine show up? Is the magazine not federated for some reason? Is it because it has a capital letter & kbin is case sensitive?

The main reason for asking - aside from showing up across the Fediverse - is that currently there are lots of clients out for Lemmy's API, and I want to use an app to browse Kbin/Lemmy, so that's why I'm signing in with Lemmy, but want to browse my Kbin 'Magazine'.

On a related note: can I add a moderator for a Kbin magazine if their user profile is from another (Kbin/Lemmy) server? It would really help!

@sheawoodrow
ahh yes, I’d love that too.

Right now it’s username > profile > subscribed which are too many clicks (especially on mobile).

@sheawoodrow That's the one of the few things it has right now :)
Just the = burger menu next to you user name at the top right of the screen.

Good to have you on board! Us at /r/Amsterdam are also dipping our toes into the Reddit-like Fediverse.

A few things we’ve noticed:

  1. The cloud flare thing on Kbin currently sucks. It eats comments.
  2. We’re wondering how users will deal with multiple communities with the same name (across instances). Will the Lemmy.ml or the Lemmy.World or the Kbin.social “CSPro” be the default?
    We’re looking at redirects/links to stitch it together a bit.
  3. Kbin seems a bit more refined on the UI side currently, even if the naming (‘Magazines’) is confusing currently.
    It Mark’s the return of CSS styling, and happily can build on a very modern & solid CSS foundation unlike Old.Reddit.
  4. Lemmy is the only one with (iOS) apps at the moment (Mlem) but it’s still very basic at the moment. Like with Mastodon, I expect you this to change rapidly, given the extra time a bunch of devs will soon have + the ones who’ve just gotten very good at Fediverse coding through Mastodon are out there.
  5. Moderation tools are a bit mystery still. Need to get some traffic first to see how it will evolve!
