You can’t get Alan Becker and his team content anywhere else other than his channel. Also, I’ve followed his works ever since the first Animation vs Animator came out.

I’ve also seen some mentions of it being caused by the new API changes messing with the tracking so not allposts and comments are counted. Anyone has better insight on this?

Exactly this right here.

But considering that humans do get copyright strikes when they do something too similar that should also applies to AI, doesn’t matter if it’s not exact.

Ah, I see what you mean now. In that case I don’t think you can do it on Kbin natively rn. There is this website though, which might help a bit. At least imo it’s easier to use. https://lemmyverse.net/communities

You can just filter for only lemmy.world. When you find a community you want to join you’ll have to type the handle of the community in the search icon to the right rather than in the Magazine tab for communities that doesn’t already have a copy on your instance.

Click on the tab Magazines at the top, select local and federate, put lemmy.world in the search box to see all lemmy.world communities. If you want to check for community with certain keywords you can try putting [keyword]@lemmy.world. It can search for the keyword in both the name and description, but not extensive as if you’d search on lemmy.world.

This can use some improvement, but it’s not a Kbin problem though, since Lemmy is even worse when it comes to searching for communities outside each instance.

I think you are missing the point. The point isn’t where the money is spent the most. The point is money has to come from somewhere. And yes, ideally it would be redirected from billionaires, mega-corps and military budget, but that’s currently not happening. The money spent on space exploration is at least somewhere in the same vein as the ones spent on the environment, other researches etc. They are for the sake of making progress. Let’s look at a hypothetical situation where space exploration is getting more traction again (more than now).

1. Attention will be diverted from environmental impact on earth.
2. Budget redirected to space exploration also has to come from somewhere, and it’s also unlikely to be from military budget.

And that’s the problem.

The money though. If they are not going to pry the money out of billionaires, it has to come from somewhere (less well off people). Those are arguably better spent to improve situations on the earth than on something that’s likely to disproportionately benefit the wealthy as their plaything, extra income, escape or whatever. Especially because it should be clear to everyone except the absolute dumbest and delusional people how critical action is right now.

Do you happen to have the link to that part?

He’s on kbin, maybe he’s collecting negative reputation.

If I have never used Reddit before and experience it the first time by seeing that I’m sure I’d just delete the app right then and there.

It’s probably more meaningful to ask at this point what data can he collects that he’s not collecting.

I think it’s nice to have a spectrum of agreement on “this is okay”, as long as we don’t stray into the more universally agreed “this is not okay”. It’s probably one of the more robust ways to decide where to draw the line when in reality a hard line doesn’t exist.

So if someone make a wrong accusation of someone else or if they make a death threat or doxx someone the comment should just stay up. Am I hearing your position correctly?

And I think you missing something. People perceptions are different and they aren’t necessarily “correct”, yours and mine included. Report doesn’t automatically remove someone, but it does allow admins and mods to see it, in other word, get a third party to look at it. Multiple reports also mean more people thinking this is harmful. Just because you don’t agree with other people’s perception doesn’t mean they are wrong and you’re right or vice versa. Not to mention that certain kinds of harassments and hate speeches directly break the ToS.

Furthermore, reporting != banning. Reporting on a comment is the voice in that comment is listened to, and it’s been decided that it’s harmful.

On the other hand, I think Fediverse is perfect for companies that want to be closer to their customers, as rare as that may be.

Another possible use case if Fediverse become popular enough is potential for companies like Nintendo setting up their own instance as the new Miiverse or something.

Just my guess, but the timing may partially has something to do with believing a recession is coming.

So you downvoted because you used it as a disagree button. End of story then?

Anyway, let’s put that aside and discuss. How is it destructive? If there is a troll harassing a user then is ignoring it better than reporting the troll? How so?

Let me give you a concrete example. This guy exists https://kbin.social/u/WorldKnows45Won/comments
Why should the comment he called the other guy “retard” not be reported? Not only that, the same guy made troll posts sprading misinformation like Trump winning the 2020 election, so it’s clear it isn’t just a one time thing either. And in the future when there are more bots and troll accounts running around, why would not reporting them be the better option?

That’d require you to not be a hypocrite though. If not for disagreeing, then for what reason did you downvote my comment?

All of the options in + except making a new magazine is creating a thread. The “Add new article” is equal to making a text thread.

You should be able to find some useful guides or info if you click “top” on the homepage, or go to /m/kbinMeta and click top to find some useful guides. Out of those this one should be a pretty helpful start.

I don’t think there is currently a way to favourite magazines but you can subscribe to them by clicking the button on the side bar.

There was a discussion on karma some days ago, if anyone want a read. https://lemmy.world/post/590386

TL;DR consensus is mostly karma is the source of quite a number of problems on Reddit and many people are comfortable with not having them back. There are positives, but the system has to be reworked for it to really work to any capacity that doesn’t negatively affect the platform.

Personally, I don’t look at karma. I barely even checked other people’s user page and I only went on my own page to look for my previous comments.
