  • @AcumenDonor Is there actually any Mbin instances yet?

    I do wonder when (https://kbin.social/tag/META) will actually open up to the rest of the Fediverse. It seems like each day is moving towards that it will never be open to it.

  • Americans are stupid when it comes to converting 24hrs "Militery time" to 1 pm, 2 pm, ext. making them all confused.

  • It's one of the games that I've been meaning to play on my backlog. It does suck that it's not going to have a sequel.

  • That sucks, I would have loved to see Asylum come to the surface. Sadly as it's been so many years I don't think it's going to get around to much that it's no longer happening or was happening in the first place.

  • The Name is just as bad as the font, I can barely read it I'm just trying to imagine reading it in the font.

  • @Rottcodd The need for an app is on the pure factor of most people use there phones to browse things, I personally prefer using my laptop or PC but when I am out and about I just carry my phone for browsing what makes it difficult to check Kbin.

    I've been transferring files for over 7 days.

    I've been using a cloud hosting provider under sync.com, great for actively syncing my files between machines I might be using as well if I wished to have any employees's later on as I was paying close to £30 a month I decided that it was best to self-host my files even if it was just by 10TB Hard Drives that only cost £200 each on Amazon (They are just USB External Ones).

    I hope to be able to host my own NAS in the Future once my home office is complete (As we are currently painting and decorating the room) but well transferring all my files from my web-host I've been waiting over 7 days for the files to re-sync up to my PC for me to transfer each one into a new drive, it is painful and I can't wait to be able to remove myself from the service in the near future.

    Has anyone else had similar experiences with Cloud-hosting before?

    What if Reddit joined the Fediverse?

    So I have thoughts about what if platforms that we seemly are trying to move away from such as Reddit decided to Fedirate and join the Fediverse.

    Do you think it would be beneficial or practical in the long run?

    How do you think people would change their thoughts of the Fediverse if platforms like Reddit did do this sort of thing?

    What would you do if Reddit did join the Fediverse?

    I want to move to Linux but I need to be able to access my apps that are not supported

    Hey, I use the Adobe Suite for daily use to build and develop posts and videos for multiple people and can't have my workflow slow down by learning a new application, I've looked into Linux a few times and want to really move over in the future but due to it not having support for Adobe, I'm not sure what to do.

    One of the other applications I use is Sync (sync.com), It's an application to sync your files from a folder to the cloud allowing me to switch from my to laptop (what I can't run most things on) and then I can still access the files on the go if I need to send them to someone.

    I also play plenty of games on Steam but not all of them have native Linux Instances. I believe Proton is actually helping bring non-native games to Linux which is a plus as really wouldn't want to lose access to playing them.

    Any advice on how I can get using Linux without losing these sorts of functions or do I have to wait till Windows annoys enough people making them all move to Linux first?

    My First 24hrs on Kbin

    When I first joined Kbin I didn't think nothing of it, I had already been enjoying and using Lemmy as well as Mastodon and other parts of the Fediverse, So I knew what I was roughly getting into but didn't release how much Kbin had to offer.

    So here coming up to hour 24 of my experience so far I hope to keep on using this platform into the future. First of all Kbin is a bit more complex than just another Reddit clone as it brings both Reddit's 'Alternative' Lemmy as well as Twitters 'Alternative' Mastodon together in one place.

    If you want to do a Mastodon / Twitter like post use the Microblogging feature but if you want to do a Lemmy / Reddit like post use the Threads Tab. This is one thing I was confused about and guessed wrong the first time I used the site.

    What about Magazines, Well I'm not a huge fan of the name Magazines and much prefer the Lemmy name for them Communities, These are like Subreddits in Reddit. After using these for a while I started trying to find some of the

    Does Kbin move all the Fediverse Magazines / Community posts across?

    So I seem to have found smaller Magazines / Communities that haven't been on Kbin before and after finding them they seem to have no posts but after looking through Lemmy it seems they do have posts. Does it take time for Lemmy to add all the posts or is it only new posts that will come across?
