Does anyone have access to the modcoord discord? We should really get those protesting subs to reopen on activitypub while they're blacked out or posting only John Oliver pictures. Dip their toes in a better pool and maybe they'll just stay here.

I've popped over to reddit a few times since this all started and the place is just a fucking black hole of anger and toxicity, every sub.

I don't even care that there is growing pains here as the platform literally crawls out of the womb - kbin is an infinitely better community already.

Definitely Demon's Souls.

I was so bored with games, and had been playing everything on the hardest setting trying to make games more fun. A friend of mine recommended Demon's Souls and it was instant joy!

Reddit activated a word filter that whenever you say "fuck spez", your comment won't show up for anyone else. I just tested it on ModCoord. they're also deleting spez memes from the subs they nuked lol

r/ModCoord: The admins in charge of demodded subreddits are mass-removing images of Huffman previously shared on them...

He probably finally googled himself and found the 32 million instances of "fuck spez" that pop up.

Well, they have enacted an auto-mod removal of any post with "fuck spez" in it now. So, yea, they are actively censoring posts.

Of course. After a fresh install, safe search lasts for about 1.5 searches until I realize it's on. 😆

@Gordon_Freeman My apologies, I didn't realize this was posted already. Since that was posted as comment in another thread, would you mind if I add your links to the topic post here?

Off topic, but, my friend has been trying to get me to buy Factorio. Should I?

@Racle
Yep I missed this post. I'm gonna go ahead and delete this since it's redundant and that site is way better than a aggregate post.

Legit question: What is the benefit of the yewtube link? Is it ad free something? (I have so much ad blocking on that I never see those issues.)

/kbin server update - or how the server didn't blow up

Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted). I don't know how many are active because I don't monitor it, but once again, I greet all of you here :) In recent days, the traffic on the website has been overwhelming. It's definitely too much for the basic docker-compose setup,...

Thanks for the update, Ernest. Maybe a tracker can be posted on the sidebar to make sure we're supplying you with enough 'coffee' to keep the lights on? A lot of us are loving this platform enough to want to invest in your work and I hope everyone will crowdsource funds to keep you afloat.

I guess the "won't effect accessibility apps" was also a blatant lie...

I'm glad they're making changes.

Week of 6/18: I watched the first season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. It's okay. I miss Discovery.

Have you attempted to see if @ernest can change the magazine name first? He may be able to change it on the backend.

Ope! You're totally right, I thought sh.itjust.works was a kbin instance. My mistake.

Not to naysay, but they will just request google take them off like they did the thousands of 1-star reviews they got a couple days ago.

This is very nice, thanks for this! I know it's early stages yet, but I have about 6 different monkey scripts installed right now and they all add so much to the experience until they can be merged with core.

Excellent, thanks for the sorting option!

Does this only list kbin magazines? I see a couple lemmy subscriptions there, but not nearly all of them.

Ahh, ok, that makes sense. Thanks!

The whole paginated thing needs to go away, platform wide.

I'd love it if there was a quicker route to get to an alphabetical list of all the magazines I'm subscribed to

As things stand, I think the fastest way to get there is to click my name, then click Profile, then scroll all the way to the right to Subscribed - and even then the list I get is a) sorted by when I joined (rather than alphabetically) and b) spread over multiple pages when you're subscribed to enough magazines (meaning...
