I try to give time and patience to kbin because it’s actually only a month old xD I think it’s this guy called ernesto and some of his friends that are developing for it. They have to fix a lot of things on the site because it’s still in a prototype mode. They work very fast though but yeah I think they’re going as fast as humanly possible right now. I’m glad there is an app being made already right now for both lemmy and kbin.
To see more magazines/communities, I click Magazines and then that page has a search bar for magazines (I search for the names of my reddit subreddits) and a list of a lot of them.
I think on redditalternatives, there’s also a migration directory to show the corresponding subreddit to community/magazine
By the way if you want to add a Thread, which is reddit’s “post”, then I think you do it by Add a New Article. I was confused cuz there’s no Add a new Thread, but I’m guessing you can do it with Add new link, photo, video, or article. Article means a text only thread I think.
There is some hope though. I think those naysayers were simply the loudest because when I go to some subs like r/pics, r/askmen, r/apple, people are supporting the strike. On r/apple, people are even made and saying yes, reddit’s threat to remove mods is mostly a bluff as they can not replace what was 5000 subreddits of mods in a timely manner. On r/askmen (which I usually dislike but today I’m happy with them) people are wanting them to extend the blackout. On r/adhdmemes, their poll is showing overwhelmingly indefinite blackout.
On r/pics most people love the new mod rule put in place to only post pictures of this one public figure
Are you going to the community and then clicking create new article? Maybe post a screenshot of the issue you run into
