kbin.social

Here are mine! A handful of things come to mind right away, but there are plenty more:...

I've been using Kbin for a few months now and I didn’t really feel the need to set my #feed to anything besides "Subscribed". I can guess from their names what the "All" and "Moderated" feed are but I have no idea what the #favorites feed does. I've seen that the recently added #collections also use the word "favorite" when...

Over the last few days, there's been an increasing problem with spam accounts from lemmy.blahaj.zone. It seems like they're working on addressing this issue, at least in a one-at-a-time fashion, but it's clear that they have not been able to proactively prevent the problem yet....

Today, I continue with code refactoring, getting closer to finishing the most tedious part. I've also improved tools to prevent spam on the instance, which will take effect in a few days, addressing the issue of overloading other instances that have been reported. After today's wave of spam, I've also started working on...

I commented in a discussion and added a photo. Others could see it....

title. i click the add photo button and it does nothing. i tried on both chrome and firefox. just me or?

I've thought the Magazines page has been messy for a while now, though with collections now also being on the same page (at least for the time being), it's starting to get very out of hand....

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.

Right now, downvotes (reduces) don't federate to (and from?) Kbin instances. This lack of federation makes the downvote counter really inaccurate—a comment that looks like it's +10 might be -15 when you look at it from lemmy.world....

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

On desktop kbin is 5x better than vanilla lemmy....

Whenever you use this format...

Boosts and reduces now redirect me to the Kbin error page. Anyone else having this problem?

So I like the random posts and threads sections on the main page as they help me find new content, but all too often, they're filled with posts from accounts that I have already blocked. Could we modify these sections to filter out blocked users?

A lot of artists, etc. are reluctant to leave corporate social media like Twitter, due to fears over the Fediverse (usually spread by other people, that think Fediverse = Gab + some cryprobros + maybe Pawoo), or not willing to understand it....

Whenever I try to view the threads page of newcommunities@lemmy.world (i.e., https://kbin.social/m/newcommunities@lemmy.world), I get an error. It's only kbin.social where this happens, and it's only the threads page of this specific community. I can view the microblogs, the people, and even individual threads, but the threads...

One of the extremely useful things about reddit was that content was somewhat organized by URL. Each post was created in a subreddit. So you could do websearch like keyword site:reddit.com/r/subreddit...

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this. So if it isn't I apologize. For several days the artemis.camp instance was online but not operating optimally, and showing no new posts. This morning trying to access the site gives the dreaded 'bad gateway' error. No information has been provided by the instance admin. So it...

I want to create a new thread. I am subscribed to technology@beehaw.org, but how can I post a new thread on it? When I go to the "Add thread" screen, the magazine dropdown appears to only show local kbin magazines....

performance issues on the *keys seemingly never stop

So to my immense joy, Hexbear has started appearing on the front page again. Instance blocking is not available, and even the regular block feature sometimes fails (on certain communities?) for no clear reason. I've already tried blocking their "DuNk tAnK" and politics sub, it errors in a way that doesn't seem to happen...

They seem to allow pedo crap (like actual advocacy), thus putting our instance into danger.

Hi all,...

A small thing here. The option for users to individually choose to subscribe to specific threads to get notifications for new posts. I often see threads of curiosity to me, that I personally have nothing to say in that moment, but might want to see what others say.

I know there's block, but "block" currently blacklists the entire magazine. If I click on it, it wipes all the threads on /all/, prevents me from looking at threads on the magazine landing page and all comments in the threads should I venture in. A "filter" would be a soft block that just clears it from my feed on the main page....
