Like tankies is used to describe those supporting the Tiananmen Square massacre, Dronies is used to describe liberals who “support” western drone attacks
I know, but having separate accounts within the interfaces of each site can be helpful. If I have a Mastodon account, I know exactly how my posts are going to look and act on Mastodon. Same goes with Lemmy and Kbin.
I also have access to features on one service I wouldn't have on others. Some posts are easier to view and access from a different site or instance. Kbin doesn't have any mobile apps yet, so I use my Lemmy account when I want to access fed on mobile.
Lastly, sometimes I'm just in the mood to use one site over the other. If I'm in the mood for more Twittery content I go to Mastodon. If I'm in a more Reddit mood, I go on Lemmy. If I want to do both at the same time, I use Kbin.
It is its own community that happens to be federated with Lemmy and Mastodon. You can toggle federation on and off, and when off, you only see kbin's material. Otherwise it functionally acts like another lemmy instance, with a different interface and features missing from base lemmy.
There is also a microblog attached to it that connects with Mastodon in the same way. Each community has its own microblog that acts as a hashtag when on Mastodon.
So while I understand the love for FOSS and an Ad Free Experience, somebody still has to pay for the server time. Now I know this doesnt exactly work in THIS scenario with Sync, but couldnt ads and paid subs in Apps be a good way for Lemmy/KBin instances for be financed without having to rely on donations?
For Example, imagine if Lemmy.ml had their own app with their own experience and if you wanted to support it without actually handing over money, now you could use ads in the mobile experience and feel a little better about your lurking.
Doesn’t work for me. Pretty much every link either says “This feature is coming soon. We’re currently working on it! Thanks for your patience.”, or it says that it’s not available in my country. :/
