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....
Today, additional performance improvements for components are in progress, which I aim to implement before enabling the API to ensure Piotr has a bit of a more peaceful sleep ;-). In the coming days, there will be quite a few of these adjustments, and I will pause updates to instances for a few days to thoroughly test the...
Today's short devlog, I'm preparing to enable the API on kbin.social - I want to improve a few performance-related elements before that. I'm also launching test environments, which takes a considerable amount of time. From visible changes, I moved the turbo mode to the sidebar, making it accessible even when logged in. This...
Today I got rid of a lot of dead code, Szymon upgraded doctrine/annotations, which will be a prelude to a larger refactor soon. Additionally, I restored the experimental platform navigation mode. Threads, posts, and comments will have improved score counting, which will be useful not only in spam protection but also improve...
Today, I started working on a provisional spam protection that should at least partially relieve admins of other instances. Work on this will continue, and the tools will be improved over time. Additionally, a few optimizations have been implemented to speed up the platform's performance, along with corrections for...
It's been almost a week since I started describing my work in the devlog. I'm okay with the progress and the pace I've set for myself. But what matters most to me is that developing the project has once again brought me immense joy and satisfaction. The tasks I've completed so far will allow for a more organized life on the...
Today I continued magazine takeover request. Additionally, I started working on a similar mechanism regarding the moderation requests for magazines, where the owner would approve or reject them. The remaining time was dedicated to preparing kbin.social for the latest code update. I also introduced several improvements to...
This update introduces the ability to request the takeover of abandoned magazines. The karab.in instance has been updated to the latest version of the code, which prepares for the kbin.social update after some tests....
This update adds additional user account visibility options and improves the process of deleting user accounts and magazines for the instance administrator. It also introduces private user accounts and magazines similar to options known from Mastodon....
For clarification, I am not talking about using multiple accounts. I am talking about using a single account, and giving your own post a single upvote....
I did the Payday 3 beta. It threw up a LOT of red flags about the matchmaking system. I made a post reviewing the game where I basically said that if I were smart, I wouldn't be getting the game because based on the beta, matchmaking was going to be busted on release....
I have two different versions of original Mass Effect 2 in my Steam library and don't know what the differences are. They have unique ids and even the space for installation differs. Notice: This is not about the Remasters. Have a look at the links please. Can you tell me what's going on?...
In light of Nexus Mods and Mod DB banning the No Pronouns mod for Starfield, I figured I would look around for alternative sources and collect them in one place for others' convenience. This seems like a good place to put them....

/kbin is certainly not dying, as @fr0g pointed out, work on new features and bug fixes is ongoing. However, it may give the impression that it is, and for that, I take full responsibility and owe you an explanation....
I bought a refurbished steam deck finally and am thinking about what my ahem acquisition workflow will be. This is what I'm thinking from my past experience daily driving Linux (arch btw):...
Elton John defini' Nik Kershaw come uno dei migliori autori/compositori degli anni 80, e scartabellando tra i suoi pezzi, famosi e meno, si puo' capire perche'....
