Dude, you're being quite hard on yourself. You're not the only one who can write code, you're not the only one who can review it. It would be fine for you to step back and take a decision making role until everything else has been handled in your life.
Don't burn out in a few months. Protect your sanity so that you can be there for the long run.
Self care first, my friend. When you are okay then you can worry about others. All the weight doesn't have to be on your shoulders.
I appreciate what you've built so far and the rest can come as it does. It's not worth running yourself ragged over. I hope things resolve well with your family issues, many thanks and no gripes here. Kbin remains awesome as-is and I'm sure it will only get even better eventually. Every improvement doesn't have to be today.
@ernest
I primarily use Lemmy but I love that kbin exists, in case Lemmy's architecture doesn't work out. We need diversity in the ecosystem, and different technological solutions to the same problem. Diversity is resilience, and it's great to see the work being done. @fr0g
Same. I’m not a kbin local, but even being based in a neutral instance that blocks nothing and nobody, kbin users and content are a huge presence in my ecosystem. Kbin is an important part of the fediverse. Periods of slow growth or even genuine stasis are preferable to unsustainable long term development decisions in the name of immediate results. Better to simmer the sauce now while the pot is small than to have an enormous vat of increasingly unworkable spaghetti in a year and a half.
You need to find someone else who can help admin this instance and moderate the magazines you're the only moderator for. I understand that means stepping down as admin at least temporarily as kbin currently doesn't support multiple admins.
You're obviously doing everything you can, but there is only so much time in a day and you don't have enough to do everything at once. You need help with it.
So I’m more some bystander, running Lemmy myself, and having serious issues about your handling of the open source licence attribution thing.
But that said, personally I’d prefer not having you set a deadline like that. Especially early stage projects, imo, need focused leadership. Maybe you need to delegate even more, including stepping back a bit and maybe paying someone else part time, but you should still keep control. You created a wonderful alternative to Lemmy, with a very thoughtfully designed Interface. That is not a sign you already need to step back just because things started moving faster than expected.
Generally your posts will be successful despite the error, but they'll also end up buried in the default "hot" view. If you switch to "newest" you should see it. Upvoting your own post should make it show up correctly in hot. No idea about the deletion thing though.
Thanks, I can still see the posts, but when I tried opening the link right after posting it wouldn't load, but it is now, but the posts still have no thmbnail and I don't know if it loads for others so I just assume not.. All very strange..
I'm not sure if this is a good suggestion, are you able to delete it via moderation as you're the magazine owner? Someone mentioned having issues deleting their own posts but still could via moderation recently, but I'm not actually sure what that difference means as I haven't moderated any magazines myself.
Ok, so trying to post THIS op I got that same error, refreshed and tried again and again the error but on my profile it showed as posted twice but somehow I had no problem deleting THAT duplicate so why can't I delete those on my own magazine? Strange
So when a community isn't in kbin yet you can search @[community name]@[instance] to create it. I was asking if a similar thing is possible with threads.
Yea that works for single posts, use the fediverse icon on the remote server for the proper url to search.
You don't get the reply's but you can search like that on a single reply too.
