Does kbin not have a normal issue tracker?

10A,

Answering my own question: Yes, it does.

Shortcake,

What is a normal issue tracker?

10A,

Follow my above "Yes, it does" link and see.

Shortcake,

Yeah. Ernest posted it in the top of the thread.

Hello all new user here also. There's no 2FA?

Shortcake,

correct. maybe it will be added later, but there are more pressing issues now

Magazine names should not be case-sensitive, but they are.

Flames5123,

This. Why?? This is a terrible user experience. I don't care if your little machine has case sensitive folders, it's bad form to have URLs be case sensitive with things users should be able to easily input (not like IDs like how YouTube does).

@markrprior@kbin.social avatar

Whether of not they are case sensitive they shouldn't be forced to lowercase as that would be an accessibility issue.

This comment thread is behaving very strangely right now: comments with the same ID are showing up multiple times in different places, and I just received a notification about a reply that I don't see in the thread.

tojikomori,
@tojikomori@kbin.social avatar

Looks like this has sorted itself out now!

ernest,
@ernest@kbin.social avatar

It should be fixed. If you could note it down and let me know, please :)

tojikomori,
@tojikomori@kbin.social avatar

Yep, it's fixed. Thank you!

Can't seem to hide threads at all. Would love to see this, or have up/downvoted threads also dissapear like the reddit functionality has.

wakasm,
@wakasm@kbin.social avatar

I agree. Once a comment gets like 20 replies it can be pretty unreadable. Have my updoot.

@printerjammed@kbin.social avatar

Maybe I don't understand but my reputation points always say negative. I did the math myself, i have lots more updoots than dislikes. Am i not understanding reputation maybe?

blazera,
@blazera@kbin.social avatar

its the same for everyone. upvotes dont increase reputation.

dumbyoyo,

Is this by design or a known issue?

ZILtoid1991, in /kbin Issues
@ZILtoid1991@kbin.social avatar

I have an issue with creating threads on federated magazines, it does not appear on the remote server, but does here.

HidingCat,

I have this issue, I realise. Is this a Kbin thing or a federation thing?

ZILtoid1991,
@ZILtoid1991@kbin.social avatar

I can safely comment on federated instances.

HidingCat,

Yea, comments aren't an issue, but my recent threads aren't going through, it seems. Which is weird, because I know I've posted weeks before and it was fine.

Does the notification system work? I don't see any notifications even though I should.

themadcodger,
@themadcodger@kbin.social avatar

It might be turned off in settings. I'm getting notifications.

Hypx,
@Hypx@kbin.social avatar

Starting to see notifications now. Guess it's fixed?

Hyperreality, in /kbin Issues

Slightly annoying issue:

No reply notifications for comments.

ozen,
@ozen@kbin.social avatar

I'm having this issue too

BaldProphet,
@BaldProphet@kbin.social avatar

It was working for me last night, but now I'm not getting any notifications, either.

ozen,
@ozen@kbin.social avatar

When I joined a couple days ago, it worked immediately when someone responded to me. Now, it's either delayed by a couple hours or doesn't work at all. It's probably low on their priority list right now, but I hope it gets fixed eventually.

BaldProphet, in /kbin Issues
@BaldProphet@kbin.social avatar

Is anyone else unable to view notifications anymore? https://kbin.social/settings/notifications leads to an "Error 50x" message.

Peruvian_Skies,
@Peruvian_Skies@kbin.social avatar

This is still an issue for me. I have not been participating because I can't see notifications.

Hypx, in /kbin Issues
@Hypx@kbin.social avatar

Is anyone else still seeing federated posts even when you turn the federation status to off? I was trying to hide some of the excess meme posts that are coming from other servers. But turning off federation does not make all of them go away. Some federated posts are still being shown.

Turning off federation doesn't mean it will delete all the content on your/the instance.

Arotrios, in How's the progress on allowing users to adopt magazines with inactive mods?
@Arotrios@kbin.social avatar

The only person who could really answer that is @ernest.

While we wait for him to respond on the topic (which may be awhile, as I'm sure he's got his hands full right now given the lemmy CSAM issues), I'd suggest that if you're looking to become mod of a dead magazine, give it life again. Post and fill it up and become a contributing member so that Ernest has something to go on when reassigning permissions. Otherwise he'll have no indication as to your commitment towards the community in question.

ernest,
@ernest@kbin.social avatar

The mechanism itself is already ready, but there are so many other changes that the next server update won't be that easy. Additionally, I had to solve several private issues that effectively distracted me from work, sorry for that. At the beginning of September, everything will start to stabilize, and that's also when all the changes will be on kbin.social.

cacheson, in are these periodic infuxes of bots (first porn, and now pharmaceuticals) a kbin-specific problem, or a wider fediverse issue?
@cacheson@kbin.social avatar

It's partly specific to the kbin software, and partly specific to kbin.social. The biggest problem is that the software doesn't currently support having more than one administrator account per instance.

The flagship instance, kbin.social, is administered by ernest, who is also the lead developer of the project. Working on the software seems to keep him plenty busy, to the point where he's not able to keep up with administrator tasks.

Since kbin.social was (I assume) not used by very many people before the reddit migration, almost all the older magazines are owned by ernest, and have no other moderators set. There's also a large number of magazines that were created during the migration, but have since been abandoned by their owners. Reassigning these is a task that currently only ernest can do.

And of course as the most populated instance, kbin.social is a more desirable target for spammers, compared to the other kbin instances.

cacheson, in Migrating Kbin account to new instance
@cacheson@kbin.social avatar

Neither lemmy nor kbin have an account migration feature yet. AFAIK that's just a mastodon thing for now.

RoundSparrow, in Can't see content from other instances or create new users.

Hi. I know it's been a couple weeks. Did you get this sorted out?
