2·1 year agoIirc that’s intentional so you are more likely to read what others have written before starting your own comment chain. That might just be Tildes though, there that’s explicitly said to be the reason why the commenting box is at the bottom.
Tried to add my alt account on a different instance to the moderator list of the only magazine I own and got a nonsensical error message: Value isn’t blank, but the error message says “This value should not be blank”
3·2 years agohttps://kbin.social/d/lemdro.id also gives a 404.
Just checked if lemdro.id possibly defederated kbin.social, but that’s not the case. Could be that they have the same bug lemmy.ml had that blocks all requests from kbin instances.
Karma aka. Reputation is already a thing. It’s not all that accurate because up-/downvotes from/in defederated instances aren’t counted, but the information is out there for anyone who wants to know. See my 1st level reply to OP.
I’m sorry to tell you that an equivalent of Karma existed from the very beginning (though rather than being Upvotes minus Downvotes, it was Boosts minus Downvotes until a few days ago due to a bug). It’s called Reputation and you can see it by viewing someone’s profile in kbin. At the time of writing this, your Reputation points seem to be at 443. Reputation isn’t being used for anything though, and while it can technically be tracked by anyone, lemmy hides that information so far.
[In fact, you can see who gave up- or downvotes to something and you can also see what someone up- or downvoted (or boosted, but that’s a given, since boosting is equivalent to retweeting). This information is out there for anyone to access who spins up their own instance due to how federation works, so the developer of kbin decided to make it public so people are at least aware of this fact.]
7·2 years agoRight-clicked on the link, copied link, went to archive.org, pasted link into wayback machine, selected most recent (in this case only) snapshot.
As you can imagine, it doesn’t work if archive.org hasn’t archived the link yet.
3·2 years ago@0xtero You can also change your title if you want, we’re not on Reddit anymore. 😉
11·2 years agoThey won’t be getting familiar with the fediverse though. They’ll be getting familiar with Meta/Threads, as happened with Google Talk and XMPP.
At SpaceX, Tesla, and other companies he hired industry experts.
And proceeded to overrule them with idiotic ideas like “scrap all sensors etc, our self driving cars will drive with image recognition only”. And now most companies with self driving cars in development are miles ahead of Tesla despite starting later.
@0xtero Well, boosting is more like retweeting to your microblog for your followers.
@megane_kun Afaik reputation isn’t tracked separately but calculated on the fly with upvotes minus downvotes (and boosts minus downvotes before). That would make it necessarily retroactive.
@HandsHurtLoL It’s not exactly buried as just not implemented yet. KBin is, after all, still in development. Same goes for following people: still in development.
Bits or bribes or sycophanty or a combination thereof.
Schadenfreudler /ˈʃɑː.dɘnˌfrɔ͜ɪd̥.lɘr/
If you don’t know how to read IPA, roughly “SHAAH-then-FROYD-ler”
Btw: I just constructed this word based on my native speaker intuition. I doubt that you can find it in a dictionary, because it’s not something one would force into a single word. A more natural way to say what you mean would be “Leute, die (hier) (auch) Schadenfreude empfinden”, which translates to “people who (also) feel Schadenfreude (here)”.
They read 1984 and went “That sounds perfect! Now how do we get to that point asap?”
