I appreciate that earnest made a post yesterday, or maybe it was the day before, saying that he is not dead and hasn't given up on kbin. It's not on this magazine, so I'm not sure where it was since this seems to be the most appropriate one, but in any case....
The popular Reddit alternative's user count has grown a lot over the past year. One problem, though: users and admins can't delete images.
I’m trying to access this community from fedia.io:...
First off, I want to say I appreciate all the hard work that goes into kbin - it can’t be easy running this....
The positively charged particle at the heart of the atom is an object of unspeakable complexity, one that changes its appearance depending on how it is probed. We’ve attempted to connect the proton’s many faces to form the most complete picture yet.
Kbin seemed tio take a nice long sleep there. I almost assumed it had fallen over for good. I Really hate the generic, undated 'over the next few days we are working on servers' mesesage.
Swiss-Italian study finds MiniTouch can help people with amputations feel whether objects are hot, cold or in between
We recently chatted with two of the devs involved with Bonfire. Honestly, they have some really amazing ideas about building a modular Fediverse platform that developers can build on for their own apps.
A jury said Mann was defamed 12 years ago when a pair of conservative writers compared his depictions of global warming to a convicted child molester.
Let's fight the spam by submitting actual science stories

A rhinoceros was pregnant through embryo transfer in the first successful use of a method that conservationists said could be used to try to save the nearly extinct white rhinos.
So when someone submitted a url at least at one point it would show up on the right and you could block it. So if someone posted a newsweek link you could block any link postings from like newsweek.com or maybe reddit.com or google.com. Lately though I have not been able to. It seemed to disapear at some point. I have not seen...
This has been an issue since the beginning of Kbin tmk, but when you make a post, it won't appear under sort by hot unless it has an upvote. This means that if someone forgets to upvote their own post, it just won't appear on the default sort. There are plenty of posts I've missed because of this....
So im pretty happy with users just being able to block and control things themselves but there has been posts from this somali call girls account where I feel like the extra step of reporting is warranted.
They always obscure part of the text, no matter what. I juat want the full text....
I've been using kbin since the Reddit exodus and I still don't really know the path to finding my way into a specific community/magazine I've subscribed to. I usually search for the name using the search function, then hope I find a thread from there in the results where I can just click directly into it. Surely there must be a...
Have you ever pondered the mysteries of the universe? Specifically, the mind-bending realm where quantum mechanics and gravity intersect? Well, buckle up, because a recent paper by Thomas Galley, Flaminia Giacomini, and John Selby is about to take us on a fascinating journey into this enigmatic world. Their research provides a...

We now have another thread aggregator to join Lemmy and Kbin on the fediverse!...
I just suspended the 'kbin.social' domain from our side, the issues on their side is happening for days now and it really effects our service backend now also.. If they have it all solved we will remove the block and we can refollow again Sorry about this but we don't have other options
Social networks, and websites with a social element, are starting to migrate from being walled gardens towards interoperation and open standards. This is comparable to the adoption of email standards by companies such as AOL in the 1990's....
Authorized Fetch (also referred to as Secure Mode in Mastodon) was recently circumvented by a stupidly easy solution: just sign your fetch requests with some other domain name.
