After getting email working for sister site, https://kbin.burggit.moe, I quickly added it to here too. So password resets should be a thing here now. Kbin has a strict requirement for functioning email to verify users. There’s no setting to toggle it off.
Now why am I messing around with Kbin? Well, it’s because the future of Lemmy seems to be a bit uncertain, in my opinion. A lot of what people want isn’t getting implemented and there’s only so much that two main devs can do. So I’ve been messing around with Kbin in the meantime. I personally like how it can federate with more software, so we won’t feel nearly as cut off from the fediverse as a whole vs the Lemmyverse. Signups are open, so you’re free to play around with it on there too, if you wish. The same rules from here apply to there too, so keep that in mind.
I used this guide to learn how to use it: https://unofficial-kbin-guide.surge.sh/
After checking out Kbin for the first time, I think it’s possible for me to use it as a post mirror as well. I don’t think it’ll do much in the way of driving engagement, but at least it’ll fill it up with some content for the time being. Let me know if you think that’ll be a helpful for Kbin.
