If “master” unintentionally made some people uncomfortable then there’s no harm in changing the default, since you can modify it if you choose.

the instance you bring up in particular is essentially a spambot.

I’d like to understand your perspective here. This and this are examples of subreddits I miss which have no active Lemmy equivalent. How is their existence at Lemmit.Online spam?

I think that’s why admin posts to lemmyworld would make sense.

“This week we blocked these 5 instances for these reasons and these 2 external communities for these other reasons. Discussions are open here until we lock the thread.”

This is being discussed in https://lemmy.world/c/jerboa@lemmy.ml too. You might want to check out that Community.

There’s a comprehensive list of Lemmy apps being curated here.

My personal recommendation is https://wefwef.app.

Thanks. My job’s gotten busier since I bought my DS412+ and it’s been sitting virtually unused for awhile. I’m hoping someone can provide directions that are just a step above “click to install” because I’m (too busy/too lazy/too clueless <-- pick one) to DIY it.

Have you tried https://wefwef.app?

The post he responded to listed a number of alternate scenes. All minor.

Very helpful. Thanks!

This is helpful, thanks.

It doesn’t cost you anything to sign up for, so give it a try.

The main cost is time, to understand the platform and to find community. I created a Kbin account, but I don’t see myself having the time to be divided between Kbin and Lemmy so I’m hoping not to have to maintain both.

Kbin federates with Lemmy - so users can engage in each other’s posts.

This gives me hope. So is it basically just a different UI? This is where my understanding of the fediverse breaks down.

Can you elaborate?

I read that Kbin defederated with Lemmy because it couldn’t initially handle the influx of new users migrating from Reddit, but that it has federated again.

So is it a Lemmy instance, like Beehaw?

I know that Kbin doesn’t use communities (“/c/”) but uses magazines (“/m/”) so I thought it was different.

I also read that there was some new way to post to Lemmy from Mastadon, but I thought those were different, like Reddit and Twitter. But they both rely on something called “ActivityPub”?

So is Kbin similar to Lemmy (by being Reddit-like), but distinct like Mastadon (which is Twitter-like)?

I didn’t have a Twitter account, but was a heavy Reddit user. I don’t have a Mastadon account, but I’m liking Lemmy. However I have some FOMO about Kbin because I don’t understand how it all works together.

True, but the writer’s room is the real star of R&M and it’s been reported that Roiland stopped collaborating there years ago. Hopefully it’ll only be disconcerting for a minute or two, but Solar Opposites being first to have a clip out could make it harder for R&M to pull off “<Belch.> I just sound different now! Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!” without looking like a copycat.

I made a slight modification to your bookmarklet asking to which instance you are migrating, which produces a list of links you can paste into something like https://www.openallurls.com so it becomes just a matter of clicking all of the “Subscribe” buttons:

javascript:(function() {
  const currentHostname = window.location.hostname;
  const tld = prompt("Please enter the name of the instance to which you are migrating:");
  const table = document.getElementById('community_table');
  const anchorTags = table.getElementsByTagName('a');
  const communityUrls = [];

  for (let i = 0; i < anchorTags.length; i++) {
    const title = anchorTags[i].title.substring(1);
    const parts = title.split('@');
    const community = parts[0].trim();
    const domain = parts[1] ? parts[1].trim() : currentHostname;
    const communityUrl = `https://${tld}/c/${community}@${domain}`;
    communityUrls.push(communityUrl);
  }

  const urlsText = communityUrls.join('\n');

  navigator.clipboard.writeText(urlsText)
    .then(() => {
      alert('Community URLs copied to clipboard!');
    })
    .catch((error) => {
      alert('Failed to copy Community URLs to clipboard:', error);
    });
})();
