What county is everyone from? I'm up north in Lancashire (maybe not north enough to be proper north though!)

Idea stolen from lemmy's casual uk group.

Snap. Fellow Lancastrian here.

Nice, I didn't think there would be many of us on here!

I've also created a lancashire magazine on kbin, would be great if you could join: https://kbin.social/m/lancashire

[–] Criton 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kbin links always open outside of my instance so I can't sub to them

[–] Ni@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah I'm not sure how to get around that, still haven't figured all this out. Maybe search for Lancashire on your instance and the group here will show up?

Still haven't been able to crack it annoyingly. May be an idea if I make a lemmy Lancashire community so everyone can play

[–] Ni@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Go for it! I still haven't figured out how to link across instances, although when I search for things in the magazine search on kbin lemmy instances show up as well so I assumed it would be similar?

[–] Criton 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I see posts from kbin magazines on my feed if I sort all communities by new. But the search function is diabolically bad.

[–] Ni@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

What a shame, the search isn't great here but still works (ish) . I end up posting a lot on lemmy posts and groups

Does this link work, only if you are on lemmy world though:

Gives me the lovely message 'couldn't find community' - I'm on Feddit UK

[–] Ni@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm maybe try: https://feddit.uk/c/lancashire@kbin.social
You can really tell I'm not sure what I'm doing!

Still no but thanks for trying. We're all getting used to this newfangled stuff. And the tech will improve with time.
