The world isn’t out to get you.

Interesting interpretation of human history regarding over 95% of humanity believing in mythological stories. Or Fox News, or advertising from MyPillow, or....

Siding with product sellers / advertisers has been their clearly announced trend in 2023. The whole API thing was because they didn't like other apps running independent advertisements.

Can you reword your second question? 'force searching communities' - not sure why you would want to force or automate a search.

You said this back on July 2, how is it months later?

Although I've found one area that Lemmy to kbin doesn't seem to work when bringing in older content when a new vote is done.

Instance: StarTrek.website Lemmy. comment thread: https://startrek.website/comment/2051539

The copy on kbin.social does not seem to load the thread that starts with user @jet
https://kbin.social/m/quarks@startrek.website/t/404007/Favorite-sci-fi-film-thats-not-Star-Trek/oldest

Not sure what is going on under the hood where those won't copy into kbin.

If anyone votes on an old comment from the source instance, your newly subscribed kbin instance will grab the older message when the new vote comes in. Works with both Lemmy and kbin sources.

If the comment voted on is a reply to a reply, it will load in all the parent comments as well.

If you have a login on the other instance, you can vote and unvote and it will still populate your kbin comments.
