A lot of the larger abandoned magazines are just spam pools now. I don't see their posts in my feed, but I don't like that the two sidesbars of random posts and threads are now just spam advertising sidebars. I triedblocking the magazines, but doesn't that prevent the posts from showing in those sidebars....

Bill Hooser has been identified as the Santaquin police officer who died after he was hit by a suspect in a semi-truck during a traffic stop on I-15. The suspect, who fled the scene Sunday morning, was taken into custody.

This site is dead. And if this site is supposed to be an alternative to reddit, how come it has "Reputation Points" which seems to be the same shit as Karma, which is one of the worst aspects (of many) of the hell that is ReTARDITT??
I find it funny that Marjorie Taylor Greene has an identity as a sort of "white-centric", quite far right US conservative when it's pretty obvious that she has a significant amount of Native American ancestry, which can be seen just by looking at her face (ignore the blonde dyed hair, makeup, etc.).
3 or 4 spam "Buy Phloboxidril Now In Your Area" posts per day were tolerable. 20 to 50 aren't. I know I could block the magazine, but I'm just one of the many who are subjected to it....
This post doesn't directly affect kbin.social users, but it is relevant. It discusses some of the potential pros/cons of Kbin and Mbin, and also the direction the kbin.earth server is heading.
The blurb below is excerpted verbatim from the release notes. For the full release notes, see here....
Banning spam accounts on kbin.social is a cumbersome affair....

Is anyone else? One of the reasons I was interested in /kbin over other options was this feature, but I don't remember seeing them on subscribed or all. Is this new? I'm kind of intimidated by it but ultimately know I want to interact. I'm seeing some cool stuff! It's all on magazines I have subscribed to.
Is there any way we, as users, can help deal with the waves of spam-meds-bots? When I get the chance I downvote, but that's not possible for microblog. Do reporting them have any effect, or they go in the pile and are more a nuisance than a help?...

I can only get my subscriptions and not the all feed. I feel like maybe I am only getting kbin content.
KES is the Kbin Enhancement Suite....
Feeling thwarted by the 404, I suddenly remembered there are plenty of curated feeds over in Collections for us to browse. Have updated one of mine to reflect newer communities.
Hello everyone, I hope your holiday period passed peacefully. The status page is ready, and I'll soon put it online. I've also made some improvements to the new project website, which will be replaced shortly. Today, by the end of the day, two moderators will also appear, more about which will be in a separate post. You can...

Over the next few weeks, we're facing another server change. I'm doing everything to optimize costs and prepare the instance for long-term operation. More details are available on the status page I'm currently working on....
If I'm on page 14 for instance of "new" and go to "hot", I'm now on page 14 there. I think that the first page would be expected by most people?
Just wondering if local communities could use kbin that way.
