Howdy! Mbin (and lemmy) are very different things. It’s sort of like the difference between Twitter and Reddit. You can sort of interact back and forth, but to get the full experience, you have to either be on a lemmy or mbin (or piefed) instance.
@jerry@fedia.io Hi again Jerry. I'm still mulling over the "will i, won't i" question, & realised a good way to help me decide conclusively. Having begun belatedly in the fediverse [late 2022] in Masto, then later experimenting with a couple of #Firefish instances, & now #Friendica, the UI advantages of those latter two over Masto is a big thing keeping me in Friendica rather than returning to Masto. Specifically, i do not want to give up the convenience of a UI that gives users iconised options for post formatting, & a preview function.
Does #mbin / #Fedia have that? If no, then i can give up the Fedia idea now. If yes, then i'd like to open an account there pls.
lemmy (running on infosec.pub) does support both post formatting and previews. mbin supports post formatting, but not previews (yet)
@jerry@fedia.io Oh goodness, just as i thought i could close this book i suddenly discover the author added another chapter, heehee. T/y... so now i suppose i need to begin researching that new option. 😊
