These users constantly move their own contributions to the top of the conversation without regard to their value. If allowed to continue it will likely become standard for...

Yet more stability issues with fedia.io (fedia.io)
Yesterday, the fedia.io server locked up. I was able to reboot it remotely and it came up clean. After less than an hour, the server froze again. This happened several more times throughout the day.

Could blocked magazines no longer appear in Random Post and Random Thread sidebars? (kbin.social)
A lot of the larger abandoned magazines are just spam pools now. I don't see their posts in my feed, but I don't like that the two sidesbars of random posts and threads are now just spam advertising sidebars. I triedblocking the magazines, but doesn't that prevent the posts from showing in those sidebars....

What's the quickest way to find a magazine/community you've subscribed to? (kbin.social)
I've been using kbin since the Reddit exodus and I still don't really know the path to finding my way into a specific community/magazine I've subscribed to. I usually search for the name using the search function, then hope I find a thread from there in the results where I can just click directly into it. Surely there must be a...
Testing to see if my posts still become invisible to me. (kbin.social)
Recently, I have noticed that when I make a post anywhere on the fediverse, I am no longer able to see that post, or any comments in it. If someone does post a comment, I will get the notification, and will be able to see the first few words of the comment, but if I click on the notification to see the full thread, it’ll not...
