I was introduced to the boykisser/girlkisser meme over in !196 recently, and today the power of memes compelled me to make this.
I've tagged it as OC since I made this meme image for kbin/lemmy specifically -- i.e. it's not a repost from reddit or 4chan or wherever -- but the image is, of course, based on a screenshot from Karakai Jozu no Takagi-san. I asked recently on my "Shinobu Horror Story" post to !animepics about whether or not this is the right idea on how to use the OC flag, but didn't get feedback. (Actually, does that OC flag even get copied over to lemmy or is that just a kbin thing...?) Anyway, let me know if you have opinions on this.

CommunityLinkFixerBot replied to my first comment here, but (1) bot messages do not federate to kbin (I checked the post on ani.social manually to make sure it showed up the way I expected and saw an extra comment counted; if I hadn't done that I'd have never seen the message), and (2) I linked with the exclamation_mark-community-atsign-domain syntax as it recommended so I'm not sure what's going wrong or how to fix it. Maybe there's kbin/lemmy interoperability weirdness in how my post was conveyed?
I don't think kbin and lemmy support mutual direct messages, so at-ing you on this post since I'm not sure how else to get in contact with you to see what's going on with the bot.

There are lots of weird kbin/lemmy interaction quirks. For the community linking, you need to include the instance as well. So if you wanted to link the community this post is in (using lemmy syntax) it would be written as
!animemes@ani.social(note that you don’t need to include linking markdown, it will automatically be parsed as a link) even if you are on ani.social.As for bot accounts not federating, that is especially frustrating for the !episode_discussion@ani.social community since it means that kbin users just see a vast desert of a community that contains zero posts.

That's exactly how I wrote the community links in my original post on kbin though. i.e. the literal text I posted for the first sentence is:

Maybe kbin is converting it to a link first and then sending that to lemmy instead of the literal text of my comment?Related to linking, is there a syntax for instance-relative post linking? (Or even just a good recommendation for how to link threads without driving people insane?)
