See the quick inspect-element mockup I put together for an example. I'm bad at design, but I think it gets the point across. Current implementation on left, suggested on right. Also, I'm using Kbin Enhancement Suite for the modifications to instance names, but I think they are even more useful for this demonstration....
Seriously, I don't know what it is about this super, but it feels absolutely terrible in PVP. There's definitely something wrong with the damage resist, because it doesn't even feel like 0% DR, it feels like negative DR sometimes. I can't tell if maybe the animation just makes your hitbox an easier target or if you're actually...

Is anyone else unable to view /m/kbinmeta/newest? It's throwing me the "We are working on resolving the issues" error. Not sure if it's related to the stability issues I've been seeing today or not. But I can view /newest in other magazines just fine, though.
Was talking to my boss about the Fediverse today, and recommended Kbin as a good starting point. Seeing some big ole anime boobies on the front page definitely made it a bit awkward....
Just trying to understand how the microblog function works in Kbin. When it asks to select a magazine to post to, is that basically the same as adding a hashtag to a toot as if I were posting on a Mastodon instance?
Also, if I post a microblog to a remote community (such as to a lemmy.world community), how does that show up on LemmyWorld? Also, how does that show up on a Mastodon instance?
Notes: The vulnerability appears to be with Lemmy software, and other instances are possibly vulnerable until the Lemmy devs resolve it, however Lemmy.World has implemented their own fix in the meantime. It has not yet been ruled out if non-admin users have had their tokens compromised, but all accounts should be forced to...
I was looking at a comment I left earlier today (several hours earlier) and realized I made a typo, and went to edit it.

Is this something that's tracked somewhere for users...
