An interesting take that I hadn’t considered. I still wish I had the option to toggle on/off the original source for the user and the magazine/community.

I completely get what you're saying and agree with a lot of it. Kbin isn't and shouldn't be Reddit but there is a certain amount of user interface tweaking and terminology clarification that needs to be done.

Checkout this link for a user script that helps to fix some of the inconveniences you listed while waiting for official fixes. It's not my script but works well for me.

I’m on Kbin and see it just fine!

It is incredibly seamless. This post appears to me as a native Kbin post would.

100% TOTK

Can we interact with BookWyrm from kbin.social?

What if I prefer nachos to tacos? Can I still eat my nachos with all the taco filling as toppings??

Same error for me. Another bug that I'm sure @ernest will squash in time. If you click "All magazines" in the top right you can still search for those. Obviously not as helpful as the full search but it's something.

That's very helpful and makes sense. Thanks!

Hopefully we can add that to @ernest's ridiculously long and ever growing feature request list.

I agree that this would also be a useful feature! No hate for German but I don’t speak it and would prefer not to see it in my feed.

I say go for it! Every community or magazine has to start with one person. Might as well be you.

I’ve only been able to get this to work on Firefox on my desktop. Anyone successfully got it running on iOS Safari? I’m trying to use the Userscripts extension.

Never mind. Figured it out. I hadn’t enabled the extension on safari. Duh

It’s definitely an interesting concept but then you have to define what constitutes a “duplicated” community. Do they have to share the exact same name? What if they are functionally duplicates but have different names (fediverse v fedi-verse)? What would happen if “trees” on Kbin is about actually trees but on a Lemmy instance it’s about weed?

I don’t have answers just questions. But I do like the idea of being able to abstract the instance that a community/magazines lives on one step further and make the topic the important part.

I love Trader Joe’s pot stickers!

Woohoo!! Go live your best free plant life!

Great idea as far as I’m concerned.

I wish she was my mom or grandma. Such passion!

I'll have to give it some time and see how things shake out. There are some growing pains with the Fediverse but I'd love a Goodreads alternative.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
