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.
lemmy.world has removed a lot of kbin.social content: https://lemmy.world/post/5289864
Can you reword your second question? ‘force searching communities’ - not sure why you would want to force or automate a search.
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.
Why are comment threads no longer indented further than 2 indentations?
That seems to be the behavior of ‘classic view’. Change to ‘tree view’?

The bare install is pretty complicated. The docker install isn’t that bad following the directions if you are on Ubuntu 22.04. https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/wiki/Admin-Docker-Guide
I did it yesterday and it was a bit confusing which passwords to set, the directions have you edit files and kind of just says “change the passwords”… but they are all in docker-compose.override.yml file - if you start there it’s a little more clear.
I couldn’t get it to start right on Ubuntu 22.04 and I tried deleting everything and starting over and kept running into the same problem. The database password wasn’t set.
docker compose up
without the “-d” at the end will show you output where I saw the password wasn’t right for the database. It was set the same in both files, not sure why it was wrong. I eventually issued a command directly to the database to set the password and that fixed the problem.
docker compose exec -T db psql -U kbin -c "ALTER USER kbin WITH PASSWORD 'mypassword';"
Then it all started up fine. I also figured out how to get the database on a different port than default because I normally use PosgreSQL 16 for development and kbin expects 13 in the install. So I wanted to tell kbin to use a different port. I can share that if anyone wants.
Hi. I know it’s been a couple weeks. Did you get this sorted out?
The developers of Lemmy have been questionable for some time
They also seem obsessed about deleting/purging content and keeping Lemmy postings off of Google Search… Lemmy servers have been online for over 4 years and even on their beloved topics (Rust, communism, etc) it would almost never come up. It’s as if they think they are building private e-mail or dating service instead of public forum. Which is entirely against the idea of their self-proclaimed love of communism and copyleft stuff… why not have everyone agree to a creative commons license of their content/contributions like Wikipedia when posting on a public forum…
Thank you for sharing and all the work.
