For the all page or other curated pages that have suggested content and not handpicked content like subscribed I would recommend blocking those NSFW pages. Obviously people can view it if they want, but blasting it in a new users face could easily turn them away if they aren’t expecting it. Personally I would also go far enough to prevent anything not on kbin from showing on those pages at all. Ya, there’s tons of good content but searching isn’t completely obvious to new users yet so the people looking for federated content are not going to overlap with those only browsing all by very much.

Just my opinions is all

This was very helpful. I think my big issue is not having a working search feature which I just have to wait for. A lot of my favored subs from Reddit have moved to Lemmy but those servers seem tough to join with waitlists and such so I was recommended kbin instead. I am fairly confident I will be able to add them once the federated search is working again and be all set.

Thanks,

I can definitely be patient and I understand how complicated this can be to set up. Just being new, I’m not sure what is broke from the surge in user base or what I just am not picking up on. But I’m looking forward to seeing it improve.

Hi,

Transitioning user from reddit here. I think I am having more difficulty picking up on this fediverse thing than I should be. I am on karab.in kbin instance, but not able to see anything outside of kbin. It is actually tough to see anything on kbin even to set up my feed. Any time i search the bar at the top I get a 500 server error. Right now I am only able to look at the trending magazines and when I sort that by active it only gives me ones with 1 or 2 subs and no content. It is making it really tough to migrate from reddit. Am I missing a step? Is there an issue with the search feature currently? I know this probably isn’t the right place to post this, but I can’t even search for the right place.
