I really like Kbin's microblog feature. Basically able to "tweet" in a community without making a whole post
Technology
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What's kbin?
A different instance software for Reddit-like discussions. It federates with Lemmy instances, so it's all a nice single network.
Does that mean when I browse Lemmy I see kbin content by default? Do I need to add it somehow? I'm using Jerboa on Android.
You can join communities on KBin instances, you can post to them and comment on posts in them, and KBin users can join communities on Lemmy instances and post to them, and comment on such posts.
So, "yes", but you might have to subscribe to a given community first.
I have the same username setup on sh.itjust.works and kbin. I'm trying to understand if it's just one account or two. Bit confusing.
If you had the same username on GMail and Hotmail, would it be the same account, or two?..
Is there any way to cross-index between kbin/lemmy so that threads show up under All? I joined kbin first but ended up changing to lemmy since the iOS experience was cleaner, it would be nice to make it simpler for the two to interact.
