Welcome, don't be scared of asking something!

I'm a bit confused, started using Lemmy earlier this month, made an account so I can subscribe to communities that interest me, still figuring it out a bit. What is kbin? Thanks!

Kbin is another federated instance on the verse just like Lemmy, it just has a different UI. I'm browsing this thread and commenting through kbin right now, we can all interact with the same posts :)

I’m on VLemmy! 👋

Another way to look at it is like different flavors or the same operating systems like Linux with kde vs gnome. Or if you’re not a computer buff, Windows 10 or Windows 11. More or less…

My favorite analogy is email- it doesn’t matter if you have @gmail, @outlook, or even disgusting ones like @yahoo or @hotmail, you can send and receive emails using the same protocols between any of them.

@lixus98

Why does every reply prepend the username of the person you're replying to?

Also, is there a way to collapse comments?

[–] lixus98@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Only if you are in the Microblog tab, since it treats every post as something more akin to a tweet. However it shouldn't show up on the Threads tab.
Also, you can't collapse comments at the moment, however the feature is being developed.

There are a lot of customizations out in the wild provided as CSS scripts to install with Stylus or JS scripts to install with a monkey plugin.

I'm using this plugin for collapsible comments everywhere right now. https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/468923-kbin-improved-collapsible-comments

What's the best way to get rid of a body... theoretically?

[–] DoucheAsaurus@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Own a pig farm.

Didn't work out for Robert Pickton, still got caught.
