Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn’t go as they’d hoped.
The mod team have basically decided that “Fuck Reddit” is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.
Presumably, we’re about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p
stupid question: is there a way to comment/login in kbin threads with my lemmy account? Reading a bit online it seems they should both be operable with a single account, but not sure how
Yes. As long as the kbin instance you want to interact with isn’t de-federated from the Lemmy instance where your account exists then you should have no problem and be able to interact with kbin content on that instance seamlessly the same way you would interact with Lemmy content.
Thanks!
A couple of questions if its not too much bother. Looking at OP link:
https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/144077
- How to know if the instance is defederated?
Also when clicking, I land in kbin (duh), which of course does not know my login credentials, therefore I am not able to comment. So:
- How to access the post from Lemmy?
The direct links to the kbin instance aren’t really handled properly across federation yet but kbin.social is not de-federated from Lemmy.world
I’m not sure if you’re accessing Lemmy from a web browser or an app but if you search for “redditmigration”, for example, (from your home Lemmy instance) you should see the corresponding kbin.social “magazine” (essentially equivalent to a Lemmy “community”) and be able to click into it and interact with the topic you linked…
I believe this would be the one for that specific topic for users registered on Lemmy.world
The way federation works is that the content (to include comments and votes) is regularly copied back and forth between federated instances so there’s no need to have an account on whichever instance the content you want to interact with was originally created on.
The catch is that this copying back and forth doesn’t happen automatically. It requires that at least one user seek out that “community” or “magazine” from their “home instance” and subscribe to it. Afterwards all of the posts, comments, and votes from that community or magazine on whatever federated instances will begin being synchronized between the two whenever changes occur.
So, you’re essentially interacting with the copy on your home instance directly which is then synced to the instance where the content originated and the users on that instance can interact back with you in the same way from their home instance.
Hopefully that makes sense or someone else comes along to ELI5 it better.

Just subscribed. How’s the FF06B5 subreddit doing?
*ucking Corpos…
You can say fuck on the internet, my friend
Fitting for the game too. Based.
I wonder if /r/lowSodiumCyberpunk will make the move as well. Or maybe the great schism will finally end and they’ll merge users again.
Think that’ll depend on the DLC launch.
prepare for /r/lowlowsodiumcyberpunk
What happened? I didn’t even know r/LowSodiumCyberpunk existed
It was created after the launch as a place for people who actually could play the game and enjoy it - as the r/cyberpunkGame was a shitshow at that time. I got downvoted there for just saying that the game works reasonably fine on my PC and I’m having a blast.
Likewise
They voted me into oblivion when I suggested it.
Reddit: We love all the free labor our mods do for us Also Reddit: COMPLY OR BE REMOVED FROM YOUR INDENTURED SERVITUDE
It’s going to be a real mess
Did you play the game at launch?
On PC it got to an okay state pretty quickly. The others, not so much.
I recently bought it on sale. GTX 1060 6gb renders 50-60 fps (lowest settings) with some drops in crowded areas. It has never crashed, and never had any major bug. Game is stored on ssd, but I doubt it would run this smoothly on hdd Overally 100% playable on PC
Yeah it’s the reverse of what usually happens. Instead of a shitty PC port, they had a shitty console port
Ironic
Maybe we will get more traffic on lemmy if it goes down.
Now that’s some DEVOTION!
The transparent astroturfing is pretty wild to see.
Not that they’re doing it.
Just that they suck so much at it.
effing lol. Can they be more blatant about it? Its like they dont even care
From a quick skim through the thread there is not one mention of lemmy. The OP only talks about going to /r/lowsodiumcyberpunk but not leaving the platform entirely.
I’ve also noticed this and I think its sad… but that just means that other people have to post content to lemmy to attract cp77 fans and start growing the community.
Someone has mentioned it now, and also a link to a cp77 lemmy community.
The OP mentions that the sub is their community and as such they are basically going down with it. They have no interest in modding for another community but will gladly participate in it.

Just start posting screenshots of the sexually explicit parts of the game and see how Reddit responds about taking away NSFW status.
They’re fine with posts being marked nsfw, because they can still post ads.
If the entire sub is nsfw, they can’t post ads in that sub.
That’s what this has always been about.
