kbinMeta

kbin sounds a lot like kabin, or かびん／花瓶, which means vase in Japanese.

This appeared when attempting to view a Kbin image attachment from a federated instance....

I tried Jerboa briefly and couldn't get it to work well for me. Then I visited kbin on my phone's browser and was prompted to install the kbin app!? I haven't seen any references to it, but it's exactly what I wanted...? Has anybody else tried it?

/kbin is certainly not dying, as @fr0g pointed out, work on new features and bug fixes is ongoing. However, it may give the impression that it is, and for that, I take full responsibility and owe you an explanation....

I've noticed a few things when blocking users....

Good morning! :) Today I want to focus mainly on reviewing the pull requests you've submitted. There are many great things there that will help improve the kbin experience. That's amazing, thank you! I'm also in the final stages of sorting out the infrastructure-related formalities. Soon, the situation with the website's...

Sorry if this has already been asked, but is there a way to know if kbin is or is not federated with another instance? I know there is a way to block domains by typing in https://your kbin instance/d/domain you want to block and blocking them from there, but is there a way to see a list of instances defederated by default?...

Both !infosec and !science are being spammed constantly with opioid ads and other non-sense....

I’m sure I’ve seen comments indicating that people can do this.

Hi, I've kind of stopped using kbin, the reason being that every time I go on this website, it asks me to relog in, even though I've selected remember me last time that I did log in....

Just wanted to ask.

These past couple of days comments on kbin.social have only had a single level of nesting, making it really had to follow the flow of comments and replies. This happens consistently and universally.

https://kbin.social/settings/notifications...

the filename usually has 6-9 characters of random letters

I’d like to help out with decentralization, with users not all gathering in one place, so I don’t want to go to kbin.social or fedia.io. I did look at fedidb.org and the list of instances there, but it doesn’t tell me if the admin is active. I could just visit every instance listed there and check the admin’s profile for...

Or a thread to lemmy. Basically, how long does "federation" take?...

Sometimes when I upload a link it doesn't load properly, it happens no big deal, but then I can't delete these buggy posts and then I end up unintentionally spamming a bunch of duplicates as I try to post again...

There is a user who posted an irrelevant ad on a magazine I follow, so I clicked their profile to see if the rest of what they posted was spam too. It was. However, I didn’t find a report user option on their profile. Is there one anywhere? I know I can go through and report their individual posts, but I’d also like to flag...

If anyone votes on an old comment from the source instance, your newly subscribed kbin instance will grab the older message when the new vote comes in. Works with both Lemmy and kbin sources....

This new design looks so much cleaner and polished. As a huge fan of the catppuccin theme, I really enjoy the newly added Tokyo Night theme....

and is there anything we, kbin, or the wider fediverse can do to combat them?...

I put together this unofficial guide to /kbin. It's not perfect. Probably needs some more clean up and a few gaps filled ... but version 1.0 is out!...

I know you can follow kbin users from Masto and co and see their threads and boosts and I think that's pretty cool, but what does it do on kbin? I followed two accounts to test and it looks like the threads they create will show up in my subscribed feed. But what about their microblog posts and boosts? It seems like there is no...

On kbin, I can see and subscribe to Peertube channels, but I never seem to get any content.

A user from this instance (@aelo0y) seems to be a SPAM clone for posting links to 923000.blogspot.com...
