I Miss The Old Days

!fedigrow@lemmy.zip to see people posting their hobby communities
A few I'm active in
- !casualconversation@piefed.social
- !askgaming@piefed.social
- !lego@piefed.social
- !football@sopuli.xyz
- !movies@piefed.social
- !tycoon@lemmy.world
- !citybuilders@sh.itjust.works
It also helps to use Piefed and create custom feeds for different interests, e.g. https://piefed.social/f/blaze_android or https://piefed.social/f/blaze_privacy
Also on PieFed.social all new accounts automatically join 4 positive communities

Bring back people getting excited about stuff.
Have you not blocked the negative instances? Most of what I see are positive posts, or news articles.

I used to post regularly in a variety of spaces about things I was interested in.
If you post a single thing that a mod has a problem with, you get instantly banned from the most empty spaces, like WHY? I post a sfw pic to a comm that is loosely associated because there's no more specific place to post and I get insta banned, why why why?
Not even disrespectful or toxic stuff, literally just posts that don't meet all the criteria of the requirements that aren't even fucking listed unless you go to the comm in a web browser.
it's extremely discouraging, and after only after like a year on this space, I'm already thinking about ditching Lemmy.
Edit: idk who replied, but you're blocked, probably after harrasing me.
You're tagged on my client as toxic. You've got a modlog a mile long on different instances, different comms, different mods, much of it for being uncivil, advocating violence, etc etc. I'll venture out on a limb and say you're the common factor here.

If you mean something that could access all of its features, the reason that isn't happening yet is because the back-end API is still very minimal. But they're working on it, and the progress so far is amazing!!
is still very minimal.
I wouldn't call it minimal, most of the features are available
-
I wish it had a dedicated Mobile app. Or a PWA (Progressive Web-App)
Summit and Mlem support Piefed

I haven’t noticed this. And I browse all. If you’re encountering that much toxicity there may be a common ingredient…

Read the comment again and tell me that's the comment of a new user on their first day
Good job taking the bait, then? Is it your first day on here, ffs? Easily triggered dinguses.
-
you get brigaded
Ah yes, someone is going through the effort of gathering people to downvote you. That makes more sense then it just being individuals disagreeing with you.
You're welcome to think that. I don't really care
-
Is this one negative enough for you?
Haven't been around in awhile, is mbin officially dead or is it still being actively developed just without much use?
-

Stop brigading me!!!!

? What bait did I take, and how am I triggered, by pointing out they were probably a troll?
-
Maybe I'll create a community too, for what I don't know yet
If your community has black jack and hookers. I'm in

Isn't it great you can just open up a log that lets you delegitimize the concerns of others? Such a lazy and malicious way to think and behave.
Too bad none of that has to do with my post.
None of my posts about my interests were uncivil.
Also, if you can't interact in good faith, I'm just going to block you, too, like the other people who whine at me with invalid arguments.
You clearly responded here because you felt you would get dopamine being malicious twoards a valid target, you didn't come here to have a conversation.
Are you capable of refuting any of my claims without invalid personal attacks to get off?

Could you point at the 'personal attacks' you're claiming I did? My comment was short and entirely factual. Unlike yours right now, I'll point out.

Ok, blocked
Go get your attention somewhere else

Mbin is still going strong. We're just not big.
-
is still very minimal.

I thought that things like combining comments across all cross-posts, categories of communities, user-customizeable and shareable feeds, ability to block all users from an instance, etc. were not supported yet.
Perhaps "minimal" is the wrong word though: maybe "basic" would have worked better, with most of PieFed's most well-known and touted features not having been included yet, unless I missed it and they are now?

Kbin is dead. Hopefully Ernst is himself not physically dead, but has stopped contributing. It was quite the fiasco as Kbin.social had to be defederated from since it was sitting un-administered and thus being used to spread spam across the entire Threadiverse.
Kbin's fork Mbin is still going strong, though with fewer users as time passes. There is even an app for it now: Interstellar.
It serves a very niche area though, where you want to interact with both the microblogging style Mastodon on the Fediverse and also Lemmy+PieFed on the Threadiverse (with newer additions being added e.g. nodeBB and flarum) using the same account rather than dedicated ones for each platform. Personally I feel like the UI is too geared towards the former and ignores what is much more commonly observed in the letter. Plus it follows Ernst's trends to rename every little thing where e.g. downvotes are "reduces", except it's more complicated than that bc downvotes themselves still exist - except they don't, in that they don't affect the sorting (or maybe that was the reduces?) - plus they are now publicly visible, except again they are not (actually "boosts" are, reduces are not, and I forget whether they are or not for up and downvotes).
Even at its peak it never topped 1k monthly active users (according to this site), so compared to Lemmy's ~35k the ~0.7k users of Mbin are practically unnoticeable.
PieFed is the new hot thing, with many features that Lemmy lacks, and some even that Reddit itself does not have. It is still being polished but its pace of development is extremely fast!

Is the irony of you being so toxic being evidence of my point completely lost on you or are you leaning too far into trolling?

IIRC most of those things are available in the API, now it's on the app devs to support them in their apps.
