How do we mass subscribe to all?

Sam_uk, hace 11 meses

@LEDZeppelin you can't at the moment

Thank you! This list is very nice. Wonder if we could maintain an editable wiki page on lemmy or kbin somehow though...

Another good resource which has helped me during the transition from Reddit: sub.rehab.

Neato!

Cat, hace 11 meses

Wow, whoever owns kbin.world forwarded it to lemmy.world. 😐

Brkdncr, hace 11 meses

Is that squatting?

Sam_uk, hace 11 meses

@Cat Hmm that doesn't sound correct. Would you be willing to say where in the world you are and provide a screenshot of what you see please?

Cat, hace 11 meses

@Sam_uk Thanks for making me take another look. When I go to https://kbin.world/ it forwards me to https://kbin.social/m/usnews@lemmy.world

So I guess it wasn't bringing me to the lemmy domain, just to view the lemmy community through kbin.

@Cat I wrote a bit more about it here: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/210618/kbin-world

@Sam_uk, nice! Thanks. I was on an IP somewhere in the US (VPN). So maybe I got a different result today being on a different IP. At least I know what is going on at kbin.world now. It all makes sense :-)

Any from other instances?

lemmyverse.net is the most complete list you’re likely to find since it uses a crawler to find federated instances and their communities from an initial seed list of known instances. So unless an instance is defederated from all of the instances in their seed list then it should appear on there. It also counts subscriber numbers, etc. as a sum across all the instances it finds, which should give a sense of where the majority of the community are gathered if there are duplicates.

You should be using !asklemmy type links instead of direct URLs. If I click, it kicks me out of my app to where I can’t subscribe as I’m not logged in to that server.

herpderpedia, hace 11 meses

I'm pretty new to this, myself. So do I just go, for example, !240sx ?

EDIT: Apparently not. It doesn't seem to be linking to the local magazine. I tried to use !240sx@kbin.social.

Tygr, hace 11 meses

What you put, !240sx should work if you don’t end it with a period?

Edit: There also appears to be a !240sx as well based on my quick search.

herpderpedia, hace 11 meses

There's not a period at the end. That's outside of the inline markdown to end my sentence.

Also yes there is. That's my community on Lemmy as @herpderpedia. Although the owner isn't right when I go to it on Kbin.

garrettw87, hace 11 meses

@Tygr @herpderpedia Kbin does not support !community links just yet, but it's in the works on some level. Linking to Lemmy communities from here can't really be done without the full URL, which does mean one would have to provide two links - one that works on Kbin, and one that points to the original instance.

In related news, linking to Kbin magazines is currently a bit borked as well, because the only other syntax that works (@magname) is assumed to refer to a user account and not a magazine.

Chickenlambchops, hace 11 meses

So for instance. If I’m on Lemmy how do I add the 3d printing community?

Sam_uk, hace 11 meses

@Chickenlambchops does the link work now?

trynn, hace 11 meses

Using !community notation is a Lemmy-only thing. Not everybody is reading this from Lemmy, and this particular community and the OP are both on /kbin. Providing direct URLs is a more generally useful way of linking to communities in the fediverse.

Sam_uk, hace 11 meses

@trynn Just looking again it does now seem to work on Kbin. I'll do a bit more testing and maybe edit the list if it works.

@Tygr

trynn, hace 11 meses

It works from a Lemmy instance to see a /kbin magazine. It does not work the other way (from /kbin to see a Lemmy community).

Sam_uk, hace 11 meses

@Tygr Thanks for the tip! Edited.
