Like Gotye and Kimbra sang: Reddit is “someone that I used to know”! Browsing Lemmy, with some subscribed Kbin magazines, fills that need and I haven’t thought about going and checking out Reddit at all. The one subreddit I still do miss is r/BORU - the (probably fake) stories with updates was great reading! Thanks Lemmy (and Kbin).
Hey I’m new to all this and trying to wrap my head around instances. What are the Kbin magazines you speak of? Do you recommend any to subscribe to?
Hi, Sub.rehab is the only place I know of to find Kbin magazines. I subscribe to the Kbin.Social RedditMigration and 3D Printing magazines. I’m subscribed to 60 Lemmy communities and 2 Kbin magazines, so plenty of content appears when I select Subscribed/Active. How to subscribe to Kbin magazines from Lemmy is shown in this post YSK how to subscribe to kbin magazines from lemmy. How to subscribe to Lemmy communities that are on other instances is detailed my comment in this post (Note: there is probably a better way!) What’s the best way to find instances and communities?. Note: Something I don’t understand yet, is that all the links (above) are from my home instance’s point of view (https://aussie.zone), so what happens when someone (like you) opens the links? Are you now linking to a community on your home instance via another instance???
Hey thanks for the very informative message, I will take a look at your posts and see if I can get the swing of things.
Magazines are like subreddits. You can use the link in the top menu to look at the current list of magazines. I don’t personally have a list to recommend, but I’m sure others will.
