kbin.social

I still don’t really understand crossposting or the multiple link options on kbin. What should kbin users know about crossposting and linking?

I have not seen an option so replying to a thread seems to be the only way that I can tell.

What sci-fi topics are we not talking about, but we should be talking about? Discuss.

Thoughts about it?...

A super helpful feature that PieFed (a new fediverse thread aggregator like Lemmy & Kbin) has is an "Add Remote" button on its communities page. This button allows you to get a community on another instance to appear on your PieFed instance (and thus get the PieFed instance to start getting posts from that community)....

I'd like to chat and hang out with you folks in real time. Do we have an official or unofficial discord server?

The following pages are returning "404 page not found" consistently, for me at least. (Also, breaks infinite scroll on homepage.)...

Magical accidents. Potions. Demon summoning accidents....

I feel like there's been a glut of clickbait articles being submitted lately. It would be nice if these posts could be taken down and allow the user to resubmit it with a more accurate title?

I just purchased Crysis Remastered for only 1,49 Euros in Steam....

With Meta beginning to test federation, there's a lot of discussion as to whether we should preemptively defederate with Threads. I made a post about the question, and it seems that opinions differ a lot among people on Kbin. There were a lot of arguments for and against regarding ads, privacy, and content quality, but I don't...

Should blocking a user still allow them to vote on your posts? I'd rather have nothing to do with particular users, and it seems that they continue to show up in the activity for every single post I make around kbin.

I've been working for the past week on a new kbin app. At the moment, it's just a prototype and only the "Feed" view has content (you can't sign into an account or post anything yet); you can see threads, thread images, thread comments, thread links, and thread votes/boosts. You can also change the "Theme Mode" and "Instance...

A few days ago I downvoted someone's comment, and the next day I happened to notice every single comment I've ever made had at least one downvote. All from the person I dared to downvote the ONE time. I straight up asked why they did it, and they seem to think I'm an "obvious" troll account that "apparently just exist to...

What's up guys! It's your friendly Genshin overthinker Inotia King. Wow it's been a busy couple of weeks. These quests are getting longer and eating up more days. Anyway as always before we begin I just want to make sure new readers have checked out my first topic which is the basis for all my theories. So if you haven't checked...

I can't find anything on the specifics of how federation actually works. The op thread gets copied to any federated server? What happens if the thread is deleted on the op server? Does it still exist on all other federated servers? How do comments and votes work? That kind of thing.

There's a chance that I have forgotten something or missed something....

Today marks the eighteenth day since returning to the project. During this time, I've managed to address critical areas that required optimization. This will be noticeable in the page loading speed and overall user experience. It's about halfway through my intended optimization efforts, but for now, I'm satisfied with the...

Today, additional preparations, there are likely 2-3 days left before I start working on the new features to be included before the upcoming first release, which is approaching rapidly. During the next update, the API will be unlocked....

Today, with the assistance of @piotrsikora, we've updated kbin.social. I also implemented a few fixes that should improve the site's performance. I'm still waiting for a few metrics, and then I'll try to enable the API (Piotr will probably want to strangle me when he finds out I want to do it over the weekend ;-))...

It's been two weeks since I started writing the devlog and the return to coding. I'm okay with the results. I've managed to establish the routines that were much needed. Finally, I could start organizing the code, which will undoubtedly yield results in the future. Sometimes, you need to take a step back to gain the right pace...

Today, I started preparations for a more extensive code refactoring. The changes won't be immediately visible, but they will significantly impact the future development of the project. This includes improving the functioning of federation, with a particular focus on collaborative remote content moderation. This will likely take...

Today, I continue working on optimization and eliminating weak points in the platform. The work on the "support us" page has turned into a refactoring of the mechanism of static pages, which will be usable in the future ;) I have also launched a new project website by @cody, which has been waiting for its turn for a long time....
