  • I am so sorry I did not realize Kbin does that… no wonder I’ve had issues. I usually post on my lemmy account but have really been liking kbin lately. Seems I don’t even have an option to post with “undefined” language.

    Now, you put it exactly how I feel about this topic! I got into it from a blog post, checked out the infamous “minimalists” and Marie Kondo, but felt like the message is the same and feels like they are just trying to make a lot of money on the concept of minimalism after the first two paragraphs of text. Be it podcast, netflix show or anything else.

    The great thing I got from it all was the mentality against consumerism. I didn’t realize how social media conditioned me to follow the latest trends and buy the newest gadgets.

    Thanks for your awesome response (and sorry about the post settings).











  • This hasn’t been documented (and I haven’t tested), but I’m fairly certain that on user level you can’t block your comments and posts from getting federated with other instances. That would be instance-admin level settings.

    The federation on/off button should only hide federated content from you, but I’m not sure if it even applies to the stuff that has already been loaded into your feed, as I still see some content from other instances if I turn it off, but could be due to other kbin users who have commented on the thread so you’d only see kbin users comments.

    Still waiting for bit more documentation on kbin, but I’m sure a lot of it will change as ernest and other contributors work on the code.
