I’m glad the story didn’t go the other way with you lighting something on fire

I thought they would just take over or replace the mod list. Guess I was wrong

Google. As much as I’d like to use other search engines, their search results are all severely lacking and not adequate for my needs (often pertaining to research) and they’re generally not as great on the multilingual front or in searching pdfs.

I also have some keywords set up in my browser so I can directly search sites I use (e.g. Wikipedia).

I suspect it’s nothing more than an overeager web application firewall (WAF) blocking the requests automatically.

It just says “kbin.social” in small after the title on Kbin, which is neither the community name nor the server on which the community exists. Am I missing something?

I played around with it but honestly it’s a bit of a nightmare to support given all the different Kbin user themes and the differences between desktop and mobile. Kbin is also not stable in the sense that new changes are expected and new themes are still being added. I figured I’d wait until it stabilized and/or until someone came up with a decent design you can easily plug and play.

Oh sorry I didn’t realize. I’ll reshare what I wrote if it can help give context:

For an example of what I mean:

https://kbin.social/m/japonic has 4 threads on Kbin. But on lemmy.world, none of the threads show up: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

I’m aware that Kbin “microblogs” get propagated as “posts” on Lemmy. But I can’t find information on Kbin “threads” and if/how they get propagated to Lemmy (or why in the case above they’re not getting pushed). Hence the question about threads specifically.

@iamhazel

No, once again I’m not talking about posts (nor this specific post). Posts (aka “microblogs”) and threads are different concepts on Kbin. I’m asking about threads (this entire conversation is a post/microblog on Kbin, not a thread). See my previous comment above.

@nosut This is just a post (“microblog”) on Kbin, not a thread.

For an example of what I mean:

https://kbin.social/m/japonic has 4 threads on Kbin. But on lemmy.world, none of the threads show up: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

Won’t this just lead them to drop Canadian media from their platforms?

@EnglishMobster

Thanks for checking. I was searching on mobile and tried on different Lemmy instances, all the different ways detailed in my post above. I wonder if just sharing the link here (on an already federated magazine) helped or if you searching as a user helped get it to show up (I admit I don’t have a Lemmy account).

Weird in any case, but glad it’s working now, thank you!

Tried all the tricks in this thread, but just get 404 or zero results when searching.
