Following the spirit of spreading across the Fediverse (and because my main instance is down so many times, because diverse reasons) I'm intrigued about the joining instance process, because I honestly don't know what criteria to have in order to join another one if I ever want to do it.
That made me curious of how you decided to join?
I firstly join to lemmy.fmhy.ml thanks to Spez and a Reddit post from FMHY subreddit, then the tragedy occurred, then I joined to lemmy.world which is/was my main one because I pictured it like a good home, then lemmy.fmhy.net revived and I am with them too, but seems like they are in a bit of trouble with the server, finally now I am in lemm.ee, but only because I just wanted another backup, not because I searched for it especially (also it was mentioned in a comment about smaller instances and one user from here throw a joke to not join here because it sucks so that way the server would be more stable, so yeah, I joined).
To be clear I am not in search for yet another instance (that sounds like a good instance name to be fair), I just want to know how the deciding process is for you, is it just random? Is it because of personal tastes?
I couldn't care less about NSFW stuff, I don't search for it specifically, but my day won't be ruined if I see a tit.
I like gaming, tech, Linux, SBC gaming, emulation, macOS, Android stuff etc (yeah how original) should I look for an instance dedicated to that if I ever want to join yet another one? Because I see topics like this in almost any instance.
I read you lemmings!
EDIT: BTW the migration process has been easier for me thanks to LASIM, so I wouldn't be scared if I ever want/have to migrate again.
I found one for my regional area because I went looking for my state community, and I didn’t know how to join it from .world. Now that we’re spreading out, I’m using it as my main. I also use Kbin quite frequently too, tho, but they don’t have an iOS app yet so not as much.
Artemis for kbin is out in public beta. Tho limited to the app’s official instance. But if you don’t mind lurking or changing instance, check it out.
Official /kbin api hopefully rolls out soon. I just forked the dev branch of it :)
I looked for it in the App Store! Do I have to get it thorough TestFlight? Is it through a link?
Edit: when I’m literally talking to the dev - I saw the page and it went to android and I thought “oh, it’s not out for iOS yet.” How do I get it?
Here you go!
Here I am posting from the app! Thank you so much!!
Yes, I have it, but not using it as it is very fresh yet (and I am trying several other apps lol)
I wonder how did they manage to be able to login there with no API.
There is an API it’s just in code review. So probably for the next release of kbin, we’ll see more instances w it :)
Got it!
