@ernest might it be an idea to set up a "kbin social status" web page or mastodon account - divorced from the kbin.social server infrastructure - which people could follow and be informed of any site issues which might not be publishable when the kbin.social site itself is down?

So, slight correction to my previous post (which I now deleted) thanks to @troplin.

It seems that phrasing content like <span> elements are allowed inside <pre> elements according to the spec, so Lemmy is actually doing the right thing there. It's on kbin to fix this, not Lemmy.

I commented on one of the closed issues about this on the kbin code repository, asking for the issue to be reopened. Hopefully it will so this gets fixed, I'm not sure though how visibility works if the issue is already closed. I'll make a new one if it's neither reopened nor replied to until next week, if no one else does first.

The issue here is that Lemmy is federating out it's content with the pre blocks containing rendered code fit for some sort of code display plugin/CSS - which KBin doesn't have.

It would ideally send out the blocks html encoded and would let downstream implementations like KBin or others figure out how to display it themselves. I don't know how we would fix this.

  • troplin,

    I think Lemmy is correct here and the Mozilla docs only refer to the text content, not elements. It also mentions that < and > still have to be escaped to be displayed.

    The HTML spec https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/grouping-content.html#the-pre-element defines that the element contains „phrasing content“ which <span> is part of.

    It even explicitly mentions nesting <code> inside <pre>.

    You're right, I only read the beginning of article, the Mozilla docs also mention the phrasing content later on the same page.

    Guess it's really on kbin then to fix this.

    It's blocked for me though, I can't see it at all.

    Sorry if it's unrelated, but has lemmy.world interface gone from bright to dark for anyone else?

    Thanks for running this site, I really enjoy it :)

    Same. Tried Lemmy.world and startrek.website and I just don't like the Lemmy interface as much. Thankfully it wasn't down long enough for me to have time to spin up my own instance.

    I did try to resist the urge to refresh constantly to help ease the load.

    There's also different kbin instances, not only Lemmy ones

    @daredevil@kbin.social avatar

    I would also love it if we could prevent microblogs from federating to a magazine, as banning currently does nothing to prevent this issue and seems a bit counterintuitive. Similar to the concerns OP raised RE: commenting, this seems like it could be another vector for bad actors to attack from.

    prevent microblogs from federating to a magazine

    I didn't even know this was a thing, but definitely sounds like it needs looking in to as well.

    thank you for that update, mate!

    promodel, in Remember you can donate to help support the development and maintenance of kbin and/or Ernest directly

    Do any of those support crypto payment ?

    You did get my hopes up the update was coming!

    But it's all good, keep up the great work Ernest!

    Honestly im so worried about kbin at this point, it feels like when you kinle a bit of fire an then try to make it bigger, while worrying to extinguish the little bit you have. Hope it does grow...

    There is a lot of focus on this one flagship instance, but there are a number of other kbin instances now: https://fedidb.org/software/kbin

    I'm honestly tempted to spin up my own instance as it is. Mostly to tinker with the software, but the fact that I can and relatively easy is pretty neat.

    Same here. I've been trying to find the time to do this for a while.
