Everyone in kbin is handsome and / or gorgeous! Everyone in Lemmy is a Lemmy user 😛 /s

In all seriousness, kbin is developed by Ernest who is an extremely devoted and trustworthy dev. Lemmy is developed by CCP shills. That's the reason I chose kbin.

kbin is also getting steadily updated and I have a very good feeling about its stability and featureset in a few months taking a look at the GitHub.

They ARE different sites, but they're federated. Basically, sites on the Fediverse (the nickname for the group of sites which share this functionality) can communicate. So, for example, Mastadon, Lemmy and kbin are all on the Fediverse, so they can communicate (when sites on the Fediverse are able to communicate, people say they are "federated").

Let me give you an example!

Say you're on Mastadon and you post something. That post will be visible to users on Lemmy and kbin, and people from Lemmy and kbin can comment and interact with it (since they all share the same protocol). Lemmy / kbin users will not have the 400 character limit Mastadon has, but they will still be able to interact.

Same thing if you make a post on Lemmy - on the whole, the Fediverse will be able to see your posts. Same with your comment here (Lemmy users can see it. For an example of a comment from another site, check out Stux's comment below - they are from Mastadon)

They are all distinct apps with distinct features, they just can communicate with each other. Imagine it like Twitter and Facebook could see each others' posts.

Now, some instances of Lemmy and kbin (basically, some servers of them) are blocked from federation with others on the Fediverse (aka, recently Beehaw - a Lemmy instance - blocked another Lemmy instance) but that is on a per-instance basis.

I'm sorry for your loss

I'm sick and tired of working for other people. Having to take PTO to do literally anything you want to do on a weekday is so fucked, and I'm one of the lucky people (who works PST while in EST). Corporate policies and politics truly do run rampant through every company, and I just need to keep working on products until one becomes sustainable long-term.

Feel like that's the key to financial and physical freedom - making the next big thing, then getting it to a solid state and just doing gradual improvements. Don't pull a spez, don't piss people off and don't add too many new features after a while or you'll kill what you have. And for the love of GOD, don't go public.

IPO'ing and going public are what kill companies with great things running for them, simply due to the "keep growing every day until the company inevitably collapses" mindset.

Welcome over (from kbin, I can see and comment on your comment because kbin and Lemmy are federated with each other and can talk!)

I agree on Doom and Doom 2. Sheer fun! I will say though that Doom 2016 didn't capture the original magic for me personally - it just felt too... formulaic?

Also, far too much emphasis on platforming.

Parking lots are absolutely everywhere. Some zones just prohibit large ones for historic reasons or otherwise (it's possible maybe you were in one of those zones)?

Visit Nashville, TN (around Centennial Park), Orlando, FL (around the Mall at Millennia) or Jacksonville, FL (around St. John's Town Center) and you'll see what I mean.

I used Joey for about a year but since the blackout it's been uninstalled

He also called them "pleasures" in the initial post. That's a really weird way to phrase it 🤔

Late to the party, but probably playing Battlefield 1942 for actual HOURS. Such a great game

I know it's the "worst" option now (didn't when I was signing up), but I use Google Authenticator. So far no issues and haven't locked myself out

Probably going to hunker down and code, if not visit the big city near us.
