Huh, I don‘t think I subscribed to anything.
I‘m mostly browsing Hot in kbin and it‘s provided me a seemingly endless stream of content which I just commented and voted on the whole day.
Just now I discovered the part where I could even subscribe wayyy at the bottom of the page where I had not ventured before on mobile.
15 magazines.
your post inspired me to go looking, so I browsed around 50 pages worth of mags and am now subbed to about 82
About ten I think, I'm taking my time, making sure I really want to sub, trying not to clutter up my feed too much.
Your restraint is admirable!
(source: me uncontrollably Lemmying during the work day rn)
I'm on 13 communities in this instance and a few more in Beehaw. I purged my Reddit account over a week ago and didn't keep track of all the subs. But I realized how much clutter I had. So, I'm going to be more selective now.
Also, I've heard kbin a few times. Should I be making an account over there?
What are kbin magazines. Different than communities? Where
I could have this wrong, but I think kbin magazines are the same thing as lemmy communities.
The question that I have is what's the lemmy equivalent of kbin microblogs?
So far as I'm aware, Lemmy doesn't have an equivalent to Kbin's microblogs, making it one of Kbin's distinctive features which I've seen some praising as it improves (or may improve?) federation with microblogging stuff like Mastodon/Pleroma/etc.
I haven't really seen that in action yet personally, but on the surface it makes sense at least.
92 'subs' so far.
Sub as a noun is fine. Sub can just mean subscription (to a community) or "at a lower level" so lower than an instance, thus community.
