I’m not the biggest fan the Mbin interface (that’s mostly a taste issue, nothing wrong with it per se), but that feature could be enough for me to give it another try
Nope. That is not yet possible on mbin. Dislikes are received but not sended. I was holding back on implementing sending dislikes because that can’t be configured yet.
I have asked before and I am curious. I do not mean this to crap on people who want an app but I wonder why an app is a desired thing. I use Mbin and Lemmy on mobile completely through my browser and I’m having a good time with both.
Sync for Lemmy is the reason I’m using Lemmy over mbin right now. The *bin experience isn’t bad per se, but native apps just feel a lot nicer to use on mobile.
I don’t use any apps on desktop, mostly because there aren’t any that look and feel as smooth and complete as the Android apps do.
Also, I feel a bit hesitant as quite a lot of the smap I see seems to come in from *bin servers. Could be moderator actions not federating well? I just need to know for sure that there aren’t any spam scripts I need to start evading after a switch.
I did try out kbin very quick a year ago but the difference in CPU usage for basic federation and browsing was quite large. With Lemmy now consistently using 15% of a CPU core on federation, I dread to think what *bin would do to my poor CPU.
Lastly, I’ve heard some pretty bad experiences about *bin and database issues from people who run both services. Dunno if that’s been cleared out yet, but if I ever switch over, I’m going to need to make sure that’s been fixed.
I was probably the most prominent person who runs both and had database issues with k/mbin. I am happy to say that those are well behind me, largely because of the skill and patience of the Mbin team helping me resolve them.
You cloud give mbin a try its developers are nice people :) Although there is only one app for it (interstellar)
When you guys implement https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/issues/486 I might switch.

Give it a thumbs up so we know what to prioritize 😊
I’ve been focusing on the backend and federation stuff. But I promise that we will implement it this year :)
Great, I just did!
Do you have downvotes disabled?
Nope. That is not yet possible on mbin. Dislikes are received but not sended. I was holding back on implementing sending dislikes because that can’t be configured yet.
If there are instances with downvoted disabled in the future, I’ll consider switching.
I find people are way too easy to downvote on lemmy so I think it’s nice to be on an instance where it is disabled.
@FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone It’s already a feature request on GitHub, you can put thumbs up under it here

Different strokes for different folks
