Kbin/Mbin handle microblog posts kinda oddly. They’re not actually attached to the magazine you see them in, in most cases, and it’s instead *bin auto-sorting posts by hashtag. *bin will aggregate all of the microblog content and sort it by the first hashtag listed, and that’ll determine which local magazine that post will appear in.

So for instance, I could post:

Just got the high score! #gaming

And this will show up in /m/gaming for you, even though I didn’t specify any magazine to post it to. I could do that from my Mastodon account, even, and you’d see it there, as well. You can subscribe to local magazines to effectively subscribe to Mastodon hashtags this way.

Posting microblog content directly to a magazine is a bit weird, as *bin basically just adds a “hidden” hashtag with the magazine’s full address in the metadata. So if you wanted to post a microblog post to this magazine, for instance, you could do that by either selecting this magazine from the list when posting, or you could include #fediverse@lemmy.world as a hashtag from any Fediverse platform, and it’ll show up in the microblog tab on *bin.

I hope that makes sense; I might not be explaining it properly lol

I haven’t had the watermelon one yet, but the slushie one is legit, too! My roommate gets that one sometimes, so I’ll occasionally sneak a scoop of it.

Miami Nights! I usually go between this one and the Diablo health potion flavor.

3. An empty bottle of iced coffee that I started on at the beginning of my shift and just finished a few minutes ago. About to start moving to the shaker cup of G Fuel for more caffeine to carry me through the rest of the night. Last one’s a steel water bottle.

This is normal for me. I typically bring all 3 to my desk at the start of my shift and sip on them throughout the night.

I think you’re underestimating who “we” includes when talking about the Fediverse. Normies want a place here, too.

Because wanting braindead content that you don’t have to think about or form a critical opinion over is a valid request. There’s a big reason the Fediverse doesn’t see widespread adoption: the content sucks, it’s all politics from the farther edges of every end of the spectrum and FOSSbro tech discussion that’s about as insufferable as cryptobro subreddits.

If the Fediverse wants to attract more people, then it needs to start expanding into what those other people actually want. They don’t want to have a furry with a Stalin profile pic explain Linux kernel to them, they want to laugh at inconsequential videos of children falling into things that they can leave a “heart” on and quickly share a link to their friend with.
