More details

I've taken the decision to move this magazine (community) over to Lemmy on the feddit.uk instance. There are a few reasons for this. Firstly, when I set it up I wasn't sure how anything worked, and quickly discovered that Kbin had no API, Mastodon could only realistically reply to threads not start them, so the option for a bot was to use the Lemmy API hosted on a Lemmy instance. This has been working OK, but Kbin seems to be allergic to bots - any account marked as a bot gets ignored completely. This includes my Mastodon bots, and the Lemmy ones I set up specifically for posting here. I'd like to tag these properly but the posts don't get through. Thirdly, it turns out federation between Kbin and Lemmy isn't terribly reliable, and having a bot posting on a Lemmy instance to a Kbin magazine can cause the posts to not federate properly. It makes more sense for the home instance to host the bot. As the bot requires Lemmy and is currently present on feddit.uk, and that seems an appropriate place to host a primarily UK community, I've moved it there.
