Seems like @squaredcircle lives on in the Mastodon side of the Fediverse? I thought Lemmy didn't federate outside of Lemmy and Kbin instances, but apparently that's changed! Let's see how this implementation goes.
Despite removing comments hours previously, I’m getting complaints from sync users that they’re still seeing the spam bots that have plagued the lemmy today....
As you've all probably experienced and perhaps read, Kbin went through a rough period in the last weeks. Access to the site was down due extended periods of time and functionality (upvotes, boosts, comments) was compromised....
Over 8 months ago now, I started using the Fediverse, messing around with different instances.
I'm glad I've found a pretty good instance of Mastodon.social instead of using Lemmy, Kbin / Mbin or other things like PixelFed.
I'm not saying I'll not use these in the future, but I want a main account for the Fediverse to help bring family and friends in as well as learn the basics & complex parts of the fediverse.
Hello everyone, I've been posting in this community/magazine for a while now, but I won't be able to continue. This magazine is currently not moderated and my request to adopt it has been pending for months. On top of that, kbin dot social has not been federating for almost a week now and shows no sign of fast amelioration,...
Mam takie głupie pytanie #fedipomoc. O co chodzi z karabinem i dlaczego każdy inaczej.
karab.in teraz nie działa, ale jak działa to mogę tam wyszukać sienbie i czasem nawet jakieś moje tootki i licznik reputacji sie kreci (cokolwiek to znaczy :>)
kbin.social moge sie wyszukać, tootki są ale repytacja stoi w miejscu czy li sie nie synchronizuje
bin.pol.social nie moge nawet wyszukać siebie (tego tutaj siebie).
I to tylko przykład, ale skoro one są do tego stopnia out of sync to czy jesli ktoś chce śledzić magazyn o nie wiem hodowli pasikoników spożywczych to ... musi śledzić fefnaście magazynow na wszystkich karabinach? Czy to nie powinno toworzyc na poziomie magazynow jakichs globalnych meta spolecnzosci? Czy wszystko żle rozumiem?
For a while now all video threads are basically just opening a screenshot of the video when you expand them instead of opening the video itself. I noticed this both for YouTube and Catbox hosted videos and you now have to first open the thread itself, and then click on the actual link of the title to open the actual page where...
Hi everyone! So far, there have been two ProjMoon communities: here, and one for Limbus only. But the Limbus community is hosted on kbin dot social, which is crumbling more and more (currently the instance has not federated anything in close to a week, and about half of the requests return an error). The Limbus community is thus...
Browsing by new was great in the early days of the first Kbin expansion, right after the reddit migration. I got to see all sorts of posts from interesting communities. Things you wouldn't normally see browsing under 'Hot'. Eventually, as thread numbers increase, I found myself using 'Hot' almost exclusively because it delivered...
I forced myself to go back a little to Reddit recently. Because while I endorse and love the existence of the Fediverse, I can't in good conscience, tolerate the instability of it. Any other time I go somewhere, I'm met with a page that says KBin is working on resolving issues, then I go somewhere else and it's fine....
I thought of creating this magazine to help myself and potentially others, to see how moderating works in practice in kbin. If you feel like becoming a mod but hesitate, you can become one in the following magazine and try out the available features yourself:...
I really wish I could like Lemmy, but I'm not comfortable using it given the founders' rather... icky... personal views. Not hating if you can look the other way but I cannot.
It's a shame that #Kbin seems stagnant. Here's to hoping @ernest gets well and gets the backup he needs to excel.
While studying an ActivityPub scraper, I happened to discover a lot of fedi software that I was previously unfamiliar with. There's a lot of cool, weird, and concerning projects out there:
By default, all posts show up in search results on #PieFed, #Lemmy and #Kbin. But in a first for the threadverse, PieFed has just added some privacy features that Mastodon had for a long time – being searchable is now optional!...

Un-tick the “My posts appear in search results” checkbox in your settings and not only will your posts be hidden from the PieFed search on your instance, but on all other PieFed instances too (yes, it federates, but only to PieFed instances).
But wait, there’s more. Google will not add your profile or any of your posts to it’s index (because of the <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”> tag used when rendering your posts) AND comments you made on other people’s posts won’t be indexed by Google either (because of the ).
So if you’re tired of living in a fishbowl, want a bit of privacy or would rather people can’t follow you around, PieFed is here for you.
For those that aren't jumping from Kbin to Lemmy with most of SquaredCircle, might I suggest subscribing to https://kbin.social/m/squaredcircle@lemmy.zip so at least we might see some of those conversations? It won't help those of us using the microblog function, but it's worth a shot to keep the conversations going.
Federated comment removals? Does Sync handle them?

Since no upvotes are possible, the 'Hot' and 'New' pages of Kbin should show the same content. That's kinda awesome
