/kbin - a few quick announcements

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 functionality should stabilize, and the traffic from the fediverse will gradually be restored. I've decided to delegate some tasks as I can no longer oversee everything at this stage. There are many offers of help for which I'm very grateful, and I haven't had a chance to respond to some of them yet because I only just saw them - a lot is happening, really.

As I mentioned before, new possibilities have emerged that I couldn't have imagined before. All of this is thanks to your support; you are incredible, and I thank you. That's why it's crucial for me to ensure transparency in everything we do and provide regular reports. I want to share as much information behind the scenes as possible. That's why it may seem like it's taking a long time, but I truly want to make the most of every cent.

Now, onto the bad news. I messed up.

The workload overwhelmed me, and I couldn't read all your messages. I will diligently work my way through them, but I need time.

The registration system is far from perfect, so from time to time, I manually verify and activate accounts whose activation links didn't arrive. Please check again later if you find yourself in such a situation.

The queue for account deletions is stuck. Manual fix is needed, which will be difficult until the infrastructure is moved. I have recorded all 230 account deleiton requests, and each one will definitely be deleted, but I also need time for that. I apologize for this. If someone wants their account to be immediately deleted, please send an email through the contact form starting with "DELETE MY ACCOUNT" - it will be easier for me to filter it out, and I will delete the account manually.

That's all from me. I'm going back to stirring the cauldron. Thank you for all the messages and kind words. Thank you for being here. Have a nice day!

sysop,

How do we contact you?
I may be able to help some with infrastructure and I have at least a passing interest in setting up my own instance but I have questions first.

Glad you have some help to spread the work out a bit. The work you’ve done already is amazing!

While you may feel pressure to hurry my opinion at least is to not burn yourself out. The fediverse is out there and will be waiting for us no matter if it’s hours, days, weeks. :)

Be well and thank you for such great efforts!

    Hey -- take care of yourself.

    Don't feel that you have to do it all yourself!! If others of us can support you in ANY way, just post a note. Hey I need (x) and we'll be there.
