Funny how r/blind saw this coming from a mile away

A lot of people on kbin are here because we don't support reddit anymore, and we are especially displeased with spez holding decades-worth of accumulated knowledge and content for ransom.
Even if they're questions which could be easily found on reddit or with a Google search, I think it's a good idea to ask them here (and on other instances) anyway. It will give those who are boycotting reddit a new space to search for answers, it will foster more content creation on kbin, and it will decentralise the combined niche knowledge and expertise of all netizens, so that it is less likely to be lost or held hostage again.

I think it's also a good starting point for anyone who is usually a lurker, but would like to create quality content here to promote community growth. Ask a question you could easily search (or maybe one you already know the answer to?)
We can come together as a community to ask and answer those questions, rather than each user trying to single-handedly create valuable content from scratch, which is much more daunting.

It's trying to simulate tone over text. For situations like your example, the implied question is something like "why do you not know this?" Or "what are you talking about?"

Assume the person is giving you a quizzical facial expression on the other side of the screen, like they're baffled by what you've said.

Swole mom being a boss bitch, you love to see it.

What a sweet story!

Interesting that native plants don't favour native bees over European bees. I planted all natives in my garden because I thought I was promoting growth of the native population!
Common misconception, I suppose.
I wish there was some viable control method we could set up at home.

He melty

I only use mobile so idk if it's different on pc, but the little image icon underneath the username will open the posted image underneath the post for you

Jenna Marbles! She was a youtuber back in the day

Dude, plain pasta tastes great. No contest.

I can't help you with the quality of the prints, but I've found that sticking the bed and print into the freezer for 2-3 mins will help it pop off easily.

Ooh I love the stellar siblings one! They're all great though

I think it's pretty standard protocol for most women to say the date went well and they would like to meet up again when still face-to-face with the guy they're on the date with.
Minimise the risk of becoming a statistic, and all that.

For messaging with dates, I generally say 2 texts then let them respond (and that's not messages like "hey" "u up?" "Are you there??" But like actual content that they can engage with).

If they don't get back to you, don't take it personally. Just forget and move on.

I feel like the best reddit posts are going to make their way over here anyway, the same way the best tweets, tiktoks, or tumblr posts made their way to reddit.

I don't think there needs to be a bot reposting everything that gets posted over there, considering all the mod removals and malicious compliance protests mean that overall content quality will likely decline going forward. I can see it getting very spammy very quickly.

Back on reddit, the main way I found new subs was by people mentioning them in the comments of related threads in my existing subs. Once we start getting a bigger level of activity in the "main" communities, I feel like sharing smaller ones will happen organically.
Until then, keep spreading the word :)

Cat

How is she doing on bakeoff? I remember back when she was on Talking About Your Generation, she seemed pretty quiet and nervous almost? Unless they just cut all her banter when editing the episode, which is likely too...

If shirts were single-use items, I would agree. But I would say you pay every time you wash and iron it, and put it back to wear again.

Oof, that's not a great look.

Mostly Bunnings. Any of the larger nurseries near me are over an hour away 😭
I am shameless about taking cuttings from friends and family too
