HubertManne, to kbinMeta in KES 4.1.0: Improving the signal to noise ratio by blocking unsolicited ads
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I don't use a smartphone. im a smartphone luddite. Heck I don't even have a cell phone on me often unless I know I need it (expecting a call or oncall)

actually I don't. I read this on kbinmeta and thought it was a general improvement to kbin. oh well.

So far don't see the option but ready to jump on it.

HubertManne, to kbinMeta in Are we cut off?
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I saw some comments around this and did seem about the same time the 404's started. maybe thats it.

@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

thanks. I actually was seeing something similar at the start of the weekend but it sorta reveresed on me where sub works and newest gives me the 404. I have been looking through my sub and I am seeing lemmy mags. Thanks for the feedback.

HubertManne, to kbinMeta in Do the "Ernest needs to add more maintainers to KBin!" comments remind anyone else of the xz social engineering malarkey?
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

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.

HubertManne, to kbinMeta in /kbin another quick update
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

The time away almost seems like a benefit now. It gave people a chance to grumble and you have responded to many of the complaints from that time in this one post. Great on you for listening and responding to the community.

HubertManne, to fedia in Is there a solution for spam from federated communities?
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I wonder if there is a way for federation to not bring over comments from federated accounts under a certain age to give the admins a chance to remove them?

HubertManne, to kbinMeta in Is Ernest still here?
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Thats not what you describe. Troll is used the way you did in my response to you. A reference to other people trolling in some other threads. Not accusations of the main post being a troll. At least that is the way im reading it. I guess I just assume your first comment was refering to more blatant type posts or replies.

many forks have merged improvements from the other project in both directions when the licenses allow for it.

I have literally never seen posts like that. I like kbin well enough and tend to defend it somewhat but trolls/shilling thats just redic.

HubertManne, to kbinMeta in Can registrations on kbin.social be disabled to stop spammers
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Yeah I had no idea they could be bought it bulk. I thought you had to be registered. Granted there are all the for profit colleges now. Would not be surprised if they straight sold them directly.

@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

yeah thats for an an individual though. A robotic spam account that needs to make a thousand accounts automatically is not going to make one so easily. spam from individuals is much easier to deal with than machine spam.

@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Why don't automated spam systems use them then? Its easy for an individual but its not super automately like google. At least at my alma matter its not.

I did not work at either at levels where I would know their reasons but whatever their reasons it did make growth in the start slow and steady.
