Kbin is the first Reddit alternative I looked at and i liked the UI so I stuck with it. I kind of assumed everything would be kbin. I thought I understood things. I thought it was kbin and lemmy separate but they federated and so I’d be able to access lemmy stuff from kbin. Which I guess is true. But now I’m confused. I look at all, and I see a post in m/[email protected] and the post is from lemmy.world and it’s devs. I’m not subbed to m/main, so did Ernest curate /all and add it? Are people cross posting from lemmy into sh.itjust.works? I feel like I need a drawing or red string diagram.
Also, I see threads that are originating on kbin.social referring to lemmy and lemmings as if we are in lemmy.
They may be posted by people that are on lemmy, you can mouse over their username to see what instance they’re from. Otherwise you can also install the kbin enhancement script with tampermonkey or something that would make anyone who isn’t from kbin have an @(instance) after their name.
I’ll have to do that when I’m on desktop. I’m on iOS safari at the moment.,
Not sure if Firefox for iOS allows for extensions, but if it does, you can install Tampermokey on it and add the userscript. I’m using Hermit on Android to have kbin installed as a PWA, and it supports userscripts in the premium version (a one-time payment). Works well so far.
In mobile browsers, just tap and hold on their username to see the url of their profile. Their instance name is on the right of the
@symbol.
