Yup! Tusky for sure, don't know about the other apps. The official app is great but missing many features still. Give Tusky a go if you decide to try Mastodon again!

I bet it is the same reason that I had: can't follow or unfollow tags from official app (or atleast I haven't found a way to do so, please help).

ukraine community over at sopuli is great if you sort by new, just trying to get more traction there in the form of people commenting. Posts for info, comments for fun.

 

To me it all started with bumping into r/minimalism years ago (shoutout to [email protected], the migrated r/minimalism) and reading books about it.

I noticed that with minimalism came simple living, enjoying the small things in life. I often feel like they are interconnected due to this, but this could just be my experience.

How many others had a similar experiences, or did something else bring you here? Also welcome experiences about directly searching for simple living topics and bumping into this community (originally on reddit).

There used to be direct links on plcman forums (.co.uk) but I believe they stopped maintaining the forums and none of the links work anymore. Sadly I haven't been able to successfully find any cracks / cracked licenses for PLC software in a long time and don't work in the automation industry anymore.

If you are working in an automation company, for siemens software you can still pretty much do the old: install on a virtual machine, move licenses, shutdown virtual machine, copy paste virtual machine -routine since the license manager still doesn't connect to any online sources to check.

AFAIK there were trolls commenting and harassing beehaw communities from .world and lemmy (I believe also Kbin) lack proper moderation tools to counter that. Supposedly it's only temporarily blocked until those required tools are implemented.

Wow okay that's a lot! Might have to migrate my mastodon account there. Thanks for the tip!

You could check out Calckey.social which has a limit of 4000 characters I believe. Maybe that is better for personal blog?

Some instances of Mastodon have a very large character limit (don't know if there are instances without limits).

Edit: just pointing out, not disagreeing

It's a slightly different syntax for accessing it from kbin: go to all magazines tab and type [email protected] to access the the community.

Edit: on kbin we use the @ character instead of lemmy's ! Exclamation character:

@ ttrpgs @ lemmy.blahaj.zone

And write it all together:

@ttrpgs

 

Please go comment there, so others might possibly find communities to grow :)

 

Lets make a thread to post our niches that we have found here. Big magazines are ok too.

I'll start: /m/mechanicalkeyboards, so glad it migrated here!

Edit: You can add a direct fediverse link (so that any users from any fediverse instance looking at this post can click on it) with the following two methods:

Click on the "link" button in the text editor, or manually write in the following format (all together):

[ /m/mechanicalkeyboards ] ( https://kbin.social/m/mechanicalkeyboards )

OR (all together):

@ mechanicalkeyboards @ kbin.social

Edit 2: magazine / community names are case-sensitive apparently, mind the uppercase letters!

 

CROSSPOST to a helpful beginners guide to Kbin (the link takes you to a different Kbin instance). Sorry if I did this wrong, I have no idea if there is a proper way to crosspost. Please let me know if there is.
