Thanks for responding so fast! I think you already did everything you could. I’m sure it will be better once someone is able to change the display title at least. I’m glad this community is taking off :)
I don’t knoww haha, because I would have to check on the original instance, and most of the time I just subscribe and move on.
I think on kbin.social one of the developers is adding the new communities very quickly so the display name is based on the address one.
This is what it looks like on kbin.social - https://kbin.social/m/adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com
When I do search on kbin.social however for a community, ones on lemmy won’t show with the display name anyway I think; it will show the address like “adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com”
I was able to find and add this community because of a reddit migration directory to show me this community is for adhdmemes :)
Is it possible to rename the display name for this magazine to “ADHD memes”? The original instance updated the display name, but the address will always be the same.
Forum on the original instance is here https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/adhd
Ahh I see, yeah on your instance, I saw it’s already called ADHD memes. Thanks, maybe I can contact the first person that subscribed to update the name displayed on kbin.
Sorry if it’s not allowed to post like this (just lmk and I’ll delete, or feel free to delete), but do you think it would be a good idea to rename this community to something like “adhdmeme”? I’m browsing from kbin.social, where the name is just “adhd”, which makes it hard for me to differentiate if the post on my feed is coming from lighter forum, or if it’s from this slightly more serious forum also called adhd (but from kbin)
you can click the Search button for the entire site lemmy.world (not search for community), and type the whole website address https://midwest.social/c/succulents , and then wait for it to find the link to the instance itself. Then you click Subscribe. It would add this to the communities search for lemmy.world if no one had added it yet
oh maybe we should prepare some instances in advance to invite people to come to. There’s a list of kbin servers, and lemmy servers. I’d just like to know if there’s a way to like mass add some communities. I would make an account on kbin.place, which seems new and for the US, but I don’t know if I can add that many magazines
Thanks for your answer. It’s making sense to me. I do think this kind of thing might encourage more users to congregate on the large instances, but who knows, maybe it wouldn’t be that bad if we continue making a new large instance if one fills up. Like how we have lemmy.ml, and now filling lemmy.world, and lemmy.world has a good experience.
I also am not entirely sure too how exactly the posts get populated, because I’m visiting some communities I added on that smaller server only a day ago, but it does show some posts from 7- 9 days ago (they don’t have any new comments or anything), so yeah maybe I also don’t completely understand how it works still. I added this one to the server I’m on - lemmy.studio - and I think I only added it today, but it’s showing some from a few days ago: https://lemmy.studio/c/kbinMeta@kbin.social/data_type/Post/sort/Active/page/1
I don’t know, I’m thinking they are probably about the same. Even though I’m trying both lemmy and kbin, I’m on a large kbin server and on a small lemmy server. I think that can make a bigger difference for the ignorant (me) than lemmy vs kbin. It can get kind of complicated to do some basic tasks, and I think it’s good if these aggregators can make it easier to do.
For Kbin, I am liking the way they organize my feed, but I think you can customize your filter/sort on lemmy to do the same. Plus they have the android mobile app Jerboa, so I’m sure the experience for the feed can be good (don’t have to keep resetting the filter the way I’m doing on browser [since I dont have an android phone])
Definitely feel free to make these accounts though :) It’s been cool, like a big experiment to make these two accounts. I have one on lemmy.studio and kbin.social
Yeah I’m honestly seeing this as a big turn off for users to join smaller instances, which is a goal many fediverse people want.
It really sucks that I made an account on a smaller instance for lemmy, and there were some technical difficulties/learning curve on my end to add a community (which I won’t run into if I stay on a large instance), but then even after I did add the community, there are no posts. I made a lemmy account since it allows you to save posts, which kbin atm can’t do. However, when I’m able to add the community on the lemmy account, there’s none of the previous posts, so I can’t save it.
I think the instances themselves don’t feel much different (for example the UI for lemmy.world and lemmy.studio is like exactly the same), but I feel like maybe there needs to be some quality of life tools to help a new instance succeed with more ease.
The only thing that’d be cool is if these community browsers could add the search for other communities as well, like for the kbin aggregator’s communities. There’s one called RedditMigration (https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration or @RedditMigration) that has more than 250 posts, and it’s started on kbin.social. It would be cool to be able to search more easily other communities so that it’s easier to find the content on the fediverse.
Kbin can improve its community search too but I am finding it easier to know about other communities not on kbin on its search. Whereas, on lemmy, maybe it’s because I’m on a lower population instance, but it’s very hard to find a community if it’s not on lemmy, and I didn’t already just know about it from the kbin account
yeah that’s what I’m struggling with too, like it’d be great if we could encourage people to try these, but at the same time I don’t want to give them a bad first impression to turn them off forever if they can not stand it’s still a baby project (understandable). I honestly don’t think it’s that hard to start using these fediverse products though, and I feel like the posts saying “lemmy will never take off”, “kbin is too hard to use” only gave me barriers to start using it. And then when I did start, I was like oh this is great, everyone’s talking, it’s a close community
yeah I think you’re right. I went on lemmy and it looked a little different haha
What does it mean to be a bot account? I saw the setting, but I didn’t know what it meant
Alright so I went on lemmy cuz I’m using both xD and I can finally see what you meant in your earlier comment. You said do

right? eg. ![image](https://imgur.com/a/g3dJUyy)

and I’ll give postimages a go :) I just used imgur since I knew about it
I can think of the community/magazine “memes” :)
Edit: oh my bad, I completely didn’t realize you specifically said Videos
maybe kbin is too young to be able to do what you’re describing? I’ll put a screenshot of what I can see (desktop for kbin.social)

(btw will you type exactly the command you put, maybe with the code `` option)?
Actually, there are more cases of domestic violence than false accusations. How come we’re not worried about false accusations of robbery when they happen at the same rate as false accusations of sexual assault? Trust me, there are not karens lurking in every corner trying to make fake reports.
In our society where sexual assault is underreported, and one in 4 women experience domestic violence, why are you putting a comment that wouldn’t help this society improve on this front?
