At least you can join different instances! And then you can still follow and participate in the same communities even if you were to get banned, there's at least some variety in the personal beliefs of people running them!
I would imagine a community can ban any use, yes. But given the amount of instances there are and that you will have a different username I don't think it would be easy to track. I'm far from an expert though!
I keep trying to get my husband to stop checking Reddit and sign up for an alternative and in the meantime I'm sending as many awesome posts from them as I can 😂
Is it possible to stop the screen from rotating on the Kbin app when my phone rotates? I have my phone settings so it shouldn't rotate from vertical to horizontal but for some reason only the app does it, anyone know if this can be turned off?
How come whenever I subscribe to a Lemmy on a different instance it just says "subscription pending?" I don't know if these means I'll never actually be subscribed, or if I am and will see the posts in my feed but am not counted among subscribers from that instance? I'm not tech savvy so I'm hoping someone can help!
Oh got it! I thought I was seeing posts from those communities on Liftoff but I was confused because if I actually go to their page it still says "subscription pending" 😂
why do threads that reference articles on outside sites redirect to kbin and not the outside site? (for example, worldnews often shows the external news site, but clicking the link takes you to a kbin.social post showing all the threads referencing that news site, not the actual site and story itself)
As far as big cities go, Montreal has the worst air quality in the world on Sunday, according to a website that tracks air quality indexes (AQIs) across the globe. The smog is a product of wildfires in northern Quebec, 80 of which are currently burning.

Lula campaigned last year with pledges to rein in illegal logging and undo the environmental devastation under former President Jair Bolsonaro.
There should be another lemmings like me out there who already annoyed their couple by talking about how awesome Lemmy and the Fediverse is.
Bad for her because I will keep talking about it though.

TIL that a parrot named Willie alerted its owner, Megan Howard, when a toddler began to choke. Willie began screaming "mama, baby" while flapping its wings as the child turned blue, saving the girls life. (www.telegraph.co.uk)
Have you done anything recently that you're proud of?
Doesn't have to be a big thing! For me, I just managed to handle an entire move all on my own, without help from friends or family.
