its open source. it can and has been forked. he can do what he likes. The call for moderation made sense but code is different. Granted I think he should bring in help for himself but that is for him to decide.

This is an absurd thread. By collecting together critical comments, and picking back up a loud fight that previously died down over a week ago, you are absolutely adding to any pressure towards our lad in charge.

Ernest Adds More Maintainers to Kbin is one of my favorite 80s comedies

Yes, there is some similarity. You're not wrong.

However, it's much more likely to be due to the common experience of solo devs whose projects blow up than it is about bad actors on kbin.

If you're so inclined, you can always check the profiles of those who were pushing for it and particularly those who were volunteering; the boehs.org link should supply some helpful red flags to look for. Ernest would be wise to check IP activity and even ask for IRL credentials of those he would consider giving any real level of access to. Beyond that, it's firmly in the realm of "mildly interesting."

It's not the boeh.org link, but here is a similar timeline of events: https://research.swtch.com/xz-timeline

xz was successful because it was believable, but a malicious actor would more likely target libraries that are depended on by many, like xz.

what is it supposed to show?

Facni, 7 miesięcy temu

It used to show threads and posts from your subscriptions.

originalucifer, 7 miesięcy temu

hey look at that! it works on my instance. not sure whats goin on over there. bad nginx route/config.

maybe theyre upgrading something

jwr1, 7 miesięcy temu w kbin.social/sub says 404 page not found. Does anyone else have this issue?

kbin.social is also showing 404 for me at /sub. https://kbin.social/*/sub still seems to be working though.

MelodiousFunk, 7 miesięcy temu w kbin.social/sub says 404 page not found. Does anyone else have this issue?

Try adding

<span style="color:#323232;">?p=1
</span>

To the end of the URL. This was a useful workaround a few months ago when things went pear-shaped for awhile.

MelodiousFunk, 7 miesięcy temu

This still works... though kbin still doesn't render the code block correctly it seems.

?p=1

basically tells the site to load page 1 of whatever sort is selected. You can also do p=2 for page 2, etc.

Yeah, I hope ernest (or someone else) fixes it soon. Mbin has fixed it, so it should be possible to check there how it was done.

I did make a frontend fix for it which is included in KES and available standalone on Greasyfork. But it would be much preferable if this was fixed in kbin itself.

I think the big problem is that the issue on codeberg is closed. Ernest never got involved, but other maintainers closed it as a "lemmy issue" which it isn't. Lemmy is federating completely legal HTML with escaping applied to spec and kbin should be able to understand it. Mbin can understand it.

Me too.

If you're talking about the 404 when you try to go to kbin.social/sub , you can get around it with kbin.social/sub?p=1

livus, 7 miesięcy temu

@fiat_lux thanks!!!

dryblastoise, 7 miesięcy temu

works for login too. kbin.social/login?p=1

rhythmisaprancer, 7 miesięcy temu w kbin.social/sub says 404 page not found. Does anyone else have this issue?

Same also. It made the PWA broken when I tried using it earlier. Maybe change my default view on the browser now. No other problems!

ernest, 7 miesięcy temu w If you're encountering the Subscribed 404 error, this is a good time to revisit Collections

I'm currently working on solving this problem.

livus, 7 miesięcy temu

@ernest thank you! Please have a break so you can enjoy the weekend too!

Dymonika, 7 miesięcy temu w kbin.social/sub says 404 page not found. Does anyone else have this issue?

I can't even upvote comments; it moves to an "error"-showing webpage entirely. EDIT: Okay, now I can, but just a moment ago it wasn't working, repeatedly...

exscape, 7 miesięcy temu w Do the "Ernest needs to add more maintainers to KBin!" comments remind anyone else of the xz social engineering malarkey?

Honestly, no. Kbin has been barely usable for a long time and I'm starting to consider giving up.
I have a notification waiting for me, but I get a 404 on the page to check it out. /sub also didn't work yesterday. I spent a few minutes trying to edit a comment just an hour ago.

Nothing against Ernest, a page of this size is hard to manage alone or almost alone, but it's still a pain as a user.

Append ?p=1 at the end of the URL; that sometimes fixes it.

Next, relax.

https://kbin.social/sub/newest

now shows the 404 and that's the url that I use by default, because I prefer newest to go first

livus, 7 miesięcy temu

The ?p=1 workaround works with that too for me
https://kbin.social/sub/newest?p=1

cool, thanks
