I apologize if this has already been covered, but I’ve seen a lot of people talking about a need for a kbin app. While I agree that a native app would be nice to have eventually, I figured that quite a few people probably aren’t aware of how web apps work. I don’t use Android, so I have no idea if there is an equivalent...
I've been seeing this for quite a bit, and thought it'd resolve itself once CloudFlare was taken off, but I'm still seeing it on many external communities from e.g. Lemmy. Not all posts or comments are visible from Kbin. Any idea on what's going on?...

Mastodon is experiencing a pretty significant surge in new users today. Probably because of people leaving Reddit and establishing themselves on the #Fediverse.
#Reddit immigrants welcome to open distributed social media! It is a really good idea to create a #Mastodon account in addition to a #kbin or #Lemmy account to enjoy the full suite of capabilities available to you here.
With the recent news that the r/blind community has migrated to a lemmy instance, I thought now would be a good time to post a quick PSA on image descriptions....
wow, I'm actually finding that #KBin is far more screen reader friendly than #Reddit ever was. For example,
each comment in a thread is basically a blockquote, so I can cycle through comments with just one letter, which is really neat! It of course doesn't tell you levels deep like that, but I really like KBin.
It has headings for topic posts so I can just browse by heading level and other goodies. I hope this Reddit migration continues!
#Kbin is growing fast, and its new community is coming together to crowdsource their own unofficial mascot. Animal themed mascots are common in the #fediverse, so it is no surprise that Kbin has continued this tradition, with a parrot.
The community has settled on this mascot after multiple iterations and polls. Now the final question is: what will the mascot be named?
So I 3D modelled two icons (well, illustrations rather) for the communities that I created on kbin: Industrial Design and Jewelry Design. These icons are meant to reimagine kbin’s logo in a way that's relevant to each community....

What's up with "The magazine from the federated server may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance."? Is this working as intended or is it a bug?

Hi /kbin! I'm currently working on a small browser extension for /kbin users.
