Yes, right now Artemis.camp is the only kbin instance which has activated the API which they've been developing. It is probably going to be the same as the APi which is exposed elsewhere eventually (perhaps save a few final bug fixes and tinkering around the edges), but until kbin.social etc merge the API update, the app can't work with other instances.
All of that said 1. Artemis.camp is federated so you can see all the same content from there and 2. hopefully the API will be enabled on kbin.social in the next few weeks.
Shamelessly stealing a comment from another site on this:
u/rogthargIt is, there are like only three major roads leading on and off Crimea. This one is the one furthest away from the frontline and pointing towards Melitopol which is one of the cities Ukraine is hoping to reach with their counter offensive to cut the Russians in half.
Two other roads point more towards Kherson and where the dam was, so a bit of two roads to nowhere atm.
It seems this is to further limit resupply routes for Russia.
The article specifically says you can't search federated communities from kbin, but you can from Lemmy. This is just incorrect, both allow you to search local or local and federated.
There was clearly a large bot net which started stencilling the outlines of the letters, but then it was magic, everybody understood the assignment. The letters filled out in a handful of minutes. Then, then the whiteout slowed - the apes (mostly) agreed the job was done. It took another half an hour or so for the white fog to finally take hold.
No. You might see a Mastodon user if they reply to a comment, but even that way round is not easy to do.Kbin makes it easier to access Mastodon content while still having access to Lemmy content too... But to discover Mastodon content you are probably best making a true Mastodon account.
You'll find different parts of the fediverse have a different focus and feel with varying levels of compatibility depending how much the core focus overlaps.
I've found the trick or to follow hashtags rather than people. But it's a balancing act, sometimes you'll find your stream gets flooded with one topic so you need to refine what you are following.
But worth noting, unlike email the 'view' isn't linked to an individual and an email address, and also broadcasting your IP address (yes and some meta data) as you browse isn't unusual. Every page you visit could be doing this not just Lemmy.Yes ideally this should be fixed, but in my view it is also a bit of a storm in a teacup.
Might have something to do with the way kbin ranks posts. Top posts are mostly ranked according to boosts rather than upvotes (favourites). I'd guess people are less likely to boost porn since a boost theoretically 'retweets' the post. Actually I'm also not sure if you can boost from Lemmy?
Actually I don't think downvotes federate with kbin (I'm not sure about between Lemmy instances?)Downvotes are not intrinsically part of the ActivityPub standard....but yes upvotes federate just fine!
Depending how the user made the post, this is/was equally true on Reddit. It is a function of the post linking to the image in it's original location ...but this is no worse than browsing images/data in any other way; you always give away some data (like your IP address) when you browse.
Not sure I fully agree. These tool are really ruddy brilliant at certain things (like writing or translating computer code, drafting certain documents) but they are poor at being factually correct. Unless / until they find a way to fact-check themselves I don't see them replacing search, just complementing it.
