I believe the link to subscribe to the channel from this instance is: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/StableDiffusion@kbin.social
However, that seems to be broken for the time being (some federation bug which will hopefully be sorted soon).
Link should work now. However your main URL is still pointing to this community via kbin
Can anyone NOT login to kbin? I keep getting 503s trying to register.
I think there have been a couple of temporary outages. I know the development team (which was previously just 1 person!) is scrambling to handle the influx of new users. it’s working for me now.
Thanks for the reply, I assumed this was probably the case but wanted to check. I’ll try again now.
This community also has 450 subscribers, so amount of people is similar. Activity also seems at similar levels.
Ah, viewing from the Kbin instance it only has 35. I assume that’s just showing Kbin subscribers instead of the total. I’ll update the post accordingly, thanks.
yes, other instances don’t report subscribers correctly. You have to visit the parent instance or a neutral service like https://browse.feddit.de/ to get a more accurate comparison
I wonder if Kbin would be open to being the image sharing community and this community can be for text posts?
I come mostly for the info and to share questions/answers. Some come for the images. Since lemmy doesn’t have many powerful tools yet for filtering, it might be worth partnering with the Kbin to make an impromptu filter to keep both separate but interoperable.
You’d have to talk to the mods. But I think a general issue is that cool pictures appeal to the widest range of users, so an image-based server becomes popular. And people want their posts to be seen, so they post to where they think they’ll get the most views.
The only way your suggestion could work, I think, is if both servers strictly allow only one type of content.
