It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.
I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.
Sorry, but what comic are you referring to? Some other users also referenced panels of a comic, but I don’t see any comic—or any link other than to Wikipedia.
Has the user edited it out?
Either it was edited in and that edit didn’t reach your instance, or Lemmy doesn’t like something about how Kbin does images. Either way, here’s a direct link to the comic (you’ll have seen it before, it’s posted a lot).
Annoyingly, I can’t view the post from its own instance because it seems like Kbin requires an account even to view?
Would love if someone has a Lemmy link to any instance other than mine so I can rule out that first possibility.
This is definitely very possible. I’ve already encountered cases where Kbin users weren’t able to interact with my images from Lemmy in quite the same way Lemmy users could.
Kbin.social doesn’t require you to log in to see content, or at least it doesn’t when I try. Here’s a link to the same comment on lemmy.world (I don’t see the comic) and on fedia.io, a different Kbin instrance (also no comic). No idea why it’s only showing up on this instance.
Huh, weird. When I click the “view comment at its home instance” button the Lemmy UI shows me, it takes me to this URL:
https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/116828/-/comment/461059
Which redirects me to:
https://kbin.social/login
Interesting that the image doesn’t show up embedded even in another Kbin instance. @[email protected] you seemed to have some knowledge, do you know what’s up?
I’m also getting a login page from your link (‘copy url to fediverse’ on /kbin) when logged out, but not from this one (‘copy url’ on /kbin).
Interesting. Does that mean there’s a bug in what Kbin is reporting as its “copy url to fediverse” URL? Or is it a bug with how Lemmy displays its “copy url to fediverse” links?
lemmy users can’t see embedded kbin images in comments. here’s the link to the embedded comic.
