I'd like to do a poll in a magazine, basically like they are on reddit. But better of course, not limited to 6 entries and maybe even have links or pictures in the entries.

Currently there's no such functionality in kbin and I'm not expecting there to be one soon.

What would be the best way to do it with what's available now? All suggestions welcome, thanks!

Hey, I'm knew to KBIN, and already like it!

Question and issues:

  • How do I set a custom display name for my profile?

  • Is it possible to edit my username?

Thank you in advance for answering.

I still don't get this part of kbin. Anyway, I hope you are having a great day.

I'm a mod over at lemmy.ca/c/torontobluejays, and a subscriber there who subs from Kbin mentioned in a post that they have not been able to see the bot-posted game day threads that are posted for each days Blue Jays Game. I've created an account here to confirm that, and it's the same for me as well. I also don't see any relevant settings to enable bot content. Can any of the Kbin guru's here help out?

Fairly new to Kbin, for some reason my "notifications" are always empty. If someone responds to one of my comments, I don't see anything that tells me that they did. Both my notifications and messages are permanently empty.

Is that expected behavior? If not, how do I fix it?

A blogpost I made about my experience on Kbin. Any feedback would be appreciated as someone who is new to blogging. Thank you

As some of you may know, szmer.info is a domain that's basically full of spammers, so I blocked it. However upon doing so a thread (https://kbin.social/m/technology@lemmy.world/t/344185/I-m-worried-that-in-the-future-we-will-be-forced) I was reading basically disappeared from my feed, and on reloading it all the comments disappeared. I went through the comments and I don't think any of the users were from szmer.info, so I'm wondering what triggered this behaviour. Is this a bug or did I miss out on something? Thanks!

Feel intensely unmotivated to work on kbin userstyle ๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Got started with it , worked pretty much nonstop since joining , yet nowhere close to done

Only so much i can do with userstyles , thought maybe forking instead so i can rearrange HTML , but instructions for setting up local env assume linux machine

So this has.me confused for some time now:

On kbin, I can follow other Fediverse users and see their Mastodon posts and all, but the accounts I followed do not appear on my Microblog feed. What's up with that? How am I supposed to interact with the followed accounts? I love that kbin wants to embrace everything Activitypub has to offer, but I didn't quite get behind this one.

I'm curious about the demographic makeup of Kbin. As we are still in it's infancy I feel that most lean towards a certain way, so I made this survey just now to find out. I encourage you to join in, and you can skip any and every question if you so choose. You can view the results at the bottom of the page.

That includes images, and both on mobile and PC.

I'm sorry to post this here, this might be the wrong place so please redirect me to a more appropriate magazine.

On Reddit (LinkedIn is even worse if I'm being honest) you would constantly see screenshot of tweets but never a link to the tweet themselves.

kbin would probably save a lot of bandwidth doing this, and it'd make the experience much more pleasant for those who want to follow the object of the screenshot's discussion.
