Oh good! What kind of timeline are you hoping to hit on the instance creating instructions? I was trying to set one up a couple of weeks ago, and just kinda got bogged down in it.

I'm giving myself until Monday to bring it to a satisfactory state.

Oh, and the server may be under load for the next few hours because I had to clear the thumbnail cache.

Not sure if you're aware of that already, but the order of items for Activity is currently boosts, reduces, faves, which I assume is still a holdover from the old way to do it or at least it's kinda unintuitive. Don't think this is a particularly urgent issue, but maybe something to mark down for later.

Please could you explain this in terms that don't reference other Fediverse systems? I don't use Lemmy or Mastodon so I'm not really sure what this means.

(Edit: ignore this point, I've just discovered that "Active" is a sort category, like "Hot", "Newest", etc.) For example what is the "Active" list? I'm guessing the list of posts that are shown on the front page? or do you mean it will push my profile to the start of the "Active People" section on the right-hand sidebar?

And if I understand correctly, the "boosts" section on my profile is viewable to everyone? Also, is there a way to unboost posts? It seems that when I click the boost button again the number of boosts goes down, but the post is not removed from my profile.
For upvotes, these only change the number that is shown on the post itself? So people will not be able to see the list of posts that I have upvoted?

Nice, these look like great changes. Good to align with Lemmy on boosts IMHO

Sam_uk, in Is there a Patreon/Ko-Fi/OpenCollective for Kbin?

I'd love to see an opencollective personally.

Very cool! What kind of services does Fast Forward give you?

I'm asking because beehaw.org has mentioned that storage space is an issue for them. I saw a post where one of the admins said he was concerned that media-heavy communities (e.g. sharing gameplay clips) could be a problem for their instance. And the admins of lemmy.ml have just outright said "we're full."

Does fastly give you storage space?

This is amazing and right in line with how I expect the boost/upvote/downvote system to work. Thank you so much, I’ll be mindful to continue boosting the best comments and threads so people keep finding /kbin!

Just switched from Lemmy since kbin seems more polished and active. Thanks for your hard work :)
