YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

What is the ! community? Is that some sort of lemmy specific magic name?
@yads @clueless_stoner The ! Has never worked for me. Just the @name@whateverinstanceis works for me
The ! is Lemmy language for "group, not user". But it only works in Lemmy, which is probably why kbin is not following suit.
How you distinguish between users and groups in kbin I have no idea, but whatever it is I guess it's supposed to work in Mastodon as well.
@sab @clueless_stoner @yads Yea when the blackout started I didn't know what I was doing. Created a username on lemmy.world and some subs. Found about mastodon created an account there and didn't realize I only needed one Lol. I use the lemmy username for upvoting and my subs but I use Mastodon for everything else. Comments, replies etc.. I like the local and fedeversetabs on Mastodon. I guess everyone got there own niche.
I also created accounts on both lemmy.world and mastodon. I know I can view mastodon content in the lemmy app (jeroba) and vice versa. Are you saying I can login to the mastodon app with my lemmy.world credentials? My (possibly wrong) impression is that the "style" of content on each is sufficiently different to warrant different accounts & apps.
@UniversalFlamingo I think you have to login to your instance with the server you made then you can interact with everyone. Example my mastodon I can login via mastodon and interact with all lemmy people. If I have a lemmy account I login through lemmy and can chat, comment on mastodon people
Mastodon doesn't natively support groups so we just use another protocol (such as chirp.social) so we know by seeing the domain name.
@sab @tech
Just testing this out, I'm here on kbin lol.
I've only used it that way so that it wouldn't be confused with the general platform :) the community names on Lemmy are registered as !communityname
