Maybe I'm naive but I don't like broad defederation from a platform. That's what will ruin the dedicerse when the money and large companies creep in. Imagine Sony vs Microsoft video game wars with exclusives. It's a system designed for decentralized enjoyment of all. Banning/blocking instances from other instances by default is problematic to the health of the basic idea of federation.
Leave the decision in the user's hands, IMO.
I haven't seen any documentation but I'm sure it's just the last CSS loaded. So if you know how CSS works, you could inspect the page and write CSS attritubes for the tags/classes you want to modify.
This is when I came over to kbin. Never saw it myself but was warned of it.
The kicking-off point was that I actually had created two communities and made a post in each one talking about how I was toying with the idea of using the Reddit API to mirror posts into them from the subreddits of the same name and then they magically disappeared (I assumed deleted by admins). So I dug into it and asked @feditips and was told they don't recommend Lemmy for those same reasons.
Turns out it was a weird nuance of language settings that hid them from me, despite being a mod of the new communities. So they are still there, but now I'm SERIOUSLY questioning the capabilities to moderate if I couldn't see posts because of language selection, especially my own posts.
That's fair, though kbin is built to be comparable to reddit and with the way the feed sort algorithms work, surely having more upvotes improves the visibility, so why not?
Or even better yet, make it an option that you can turn on or off per user.
Yeah I think I agree even though I like it. Joey for Reddit did this and I liked it. Increased the unique posts I saw. Should be an app/feed option rather than a default.
Ohhhh. Yeah that's bad design
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.
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 [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]).
Team Mastodon over here. Best part is I don't have to explain why a federated social media is the way to go on Kbin.
