i'd like to resolve whatever is causing this, a few questions if you don't mind: do you have any UA spoofing plugins enabled? IPv4 or IPv6 endpoint? VPN? HTTP/3 (QUIC)? (you'll need to check the session log in the browser console for this).

those are the only things that I can think of that may be causing this issue... as i said in my other comment, i've had to take a defensive position from bots hammering kbin.run, so i'm leaning towards something i did that's interfering with legit traffic.

kbin.run admin here, in addition to the other good suggestions (up-to-date browser, date/time check), also check to see if you have any UA spoofing/mangling plugins enabled. i've had to crack down on the number of bots hitting the site that refuse to identify themselves, so it might be related.

i pushed a "fix" for this last night (https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/pull/719), Mbin main should build now :-)

I don't care what you want on it, every pizza comes with pepperoni and with 9mm bullets on it. If you don't like it, I don't care cause you'll receive one anyhow. The only difference is, maybe the 9mm bullets will be in the gun or maybe they'll be on your pizza.

i use Tailscale on everything these days (or use Headscale if you want to self host the control plane). with the free plan you get up to 100 devices on a "tailnet", just set the right ACLs to only allow the remote connection ports of choice, pair it with self hosted RustDesk, and you should be good to go. the NAT traversal of Tailscale is pretty good from what i've observed, but sometimes you might get stuck on a relay (called a DERP) if it can't get across the firewall(s).

it probably wouldn't be too hard to diplex it with one of the low band antennas, wouldn't be great reception but it'd give you something for FM stations that are close enough. a relatively big ass coupling inductor and small series cap before the antenna tuner shouldn't do too much insertion loss damage, these cellular front ends are lossy AF already... and the lowest low band freq is like 6x higher from the FM band, so isolation should be ok... dunno, obviously adds more cost than what it's worth to the bean counters in charge i'm sure.

seems like this is an area that a nice "arrangement" could be made, that is, US congress: you grant T-Mobile their band 41 licenses that are being held up by your own incompetence in exchange for T-Mobile actually addressing their own repeated incompetence involving anything related to data security. sell it to the public under the guise that it would be detrimental to the US consumer by letting T-Mobile continue to expand their public reach while completely ignoring the importance of data privacy and security of said public... and you can go on taking bribes from AT&T and Verizon in the meantime, dunno, sounds like a win-win to me.

After subscribing to a new magazine, I get booted to m/all despite my default view being m/sub (kbin.run)

I’m on mobile right now. I tested and this does not happen on other kbin instances. It also seems to happen with some magazines but not others and I’m not sure why—best guess is some of the magazines are totally new to this instance and some are not.

there's a manual retry period i added for things that fail to federate correctly the first time, but yes... it's a little sketchy right now. it could also be something with this latest development code. the comparison between kbin instances is a little bit of a pain right now since we don't tag the releases with version numbers. i will say there are several federation improvements with pull requests ready to get merged into the code, but @ernest hasn't approved them yet.

@debounced@kbin.run avatar

very interesting observation, and that could very well be the cause of this behavior, i.e., if this instance hasn't federated with a specific magazine before, it might just redirect to /all the first time since there isn't any federated data available yet. i'll have to dig through kbin's codeberg issues to see if someone else has reported this behavior, but it doesn't sound familiar to me.

Admin of my instance seems to have gone inactive, looking to migrate to a small instance with an active admin (kbin.cafe)

I’d like to help out with decentralization, with users not all gathering in one place, so I don’t want to go to kbin.social or fedia.io. I did look at fedidb.org and the list of instances there, but it doesn’t tell me if the admin is active. I could just visit every instance listed there and check the admin’s profile for...

hmm, that's not good. i checked the mailgun logs and it says the activation email was delivered. can you check your email's spam folder(s)? i manually activated your account so you should be able to login with the password used during signup.

you can give kbin.run a try if you'd like. i've been actively keeping it up-to-date with the latest commits to the kbin develop branch, even had my own admin feature pull request accepted (yay!).

kbin.social's federation was disabled early on and a lot of users ended up sticking with the mothership, but kbin.run has been online since "the exodus" 3 months ago. honestly it's been more for me to use as a gateway to the threadiverse/fediverse, but i've kept registrations open while actively purging the occasional spam accounts that make their way through. i sysadmin as a hobby (i like giving myself extra work) and i will scale up the instance if it becomes necessary, but the current bare metal virtualization environment has no problem keeping up with the way it is. i also try to be as transparent as possible with the faq/privacy policy/terms of service pages and posts in the local meta and announcement magazines, but realize it's a US based instance so the laws of the land apply in full force, of course.

100% agree, it's also how I keep my 98 Camry alive outside the occasional trip to the junkyard.

98 Camry has joined the chat

Another old girl that refuses to die, but sure likes to keep me busy and my wallet empty. I'll get maybe a few weeks to enjoy the peace before something else decides it needs replacing, but luckily I do all the work myself... easy enough these days with YouTube and Toyota Camry forums.

kbin should have something in place that if server/instance A meets XYZ requirements and has a curated set of federated magazines enabled that are common among "anchor" instances (or whatever you want to call them) that anyone trying to register should be sent off to a random instance that is underutilized. i believe mastodon has/had something like this early on.

i haven't been actively advertising kbin.run, but it has taken about a week since deployment (after some initial growing pains and the occasional glitches after pulling down new code changes) to get to about 52 registered users kbin.fediverse.observer.

i've been thinking similar things or use some other P2P model like those used by crypto nodes/i2p/tor. and maybe blockchain can serve a different purpose in order to bring validity to instances so as to not have bad actors fuck with the data as well as giving us a way to collectively boot them from federating should their reputation tank... dunno, not an expert in this area at all.

Oh I know, lol. What's that line from Apollo 13? Something along the lines of "I don't care what it was designed to do, I care what it can do." Regardless, no intention to start a heated debate over buzz words... don't really care what the solution is as long as it addresses the overarching problem.

you will actually hear junk from the alternator in the AM band if the voltage regulator(s)/rectifier goes bad or a ground gets corroded... the lead acid battery provides a nice smoothing function (almost ideal voltage source) since the alternator and engine have a low impedance bond to the negative terminal (system ground). the low frequency spectral emissions (very low harmonic content) from 1 alternator and associated circuitry is a much simpler problem than all the computers, ac inverters (induced high frequency currents running around everywhere), wiring harnesses, etc. that all act as rf generators/antennas.

I pulled in the latest code revision and it seems to have resolved this issue.
