I hope it isn't locked into a liberalism ideology too much. If I want to make food and housing a human right, workers employed by the state, and/or democratically owned workplaces do I have the option for that?
My utopian city has no landlords or bourgeoisie and I hope I can make that happen.

I tried Jerboa briefly and couldn't get it to work well for me. Then I visited kbin on my phone's browser and was prompted to install the kbin app!? I haven't seen any references to it, but it's exactly what I wanted...? Has anybody else tried it?
You mean the chrome based web app thing right? I think it's literally just a separate window that runs the mobile site on chrome. It's pretty functional though, I agree.
This may be a dumb question but how do I create a new thread in a magazine? When I click on the "+" button in the top right of Kbin, I have the options: Add new Link, Add New Article, Add New Photo, Add New Post, Add New video, Create New Magazine.
I would have thought "Add New Post" was the right choice, but that brings me here, to the microblog. How do I just create a new text only thread? I'm surprised it's this unintuitive for me, considering the entire point of this site. Is it "Add article?"
EDIT: Apparently it's "Add article" after some experimenting. Definitely doesn't seem intuitive to me, but maybe it's just me.
I generally use a Google Spreadsheet, with Title, Author, Date Started, Date Finished, Rating, Review, and Source (such as physical/own, or Libby-Audiobook, etc).
Then I put the info into Goodreads at some point, but honestly I'm considering dropping GR, and either just doing the spreadsheet, or trying a new website.
