Absolutely not. After reading Christian’s last post containing the audio recordings and reading about his interactions with Reddit, I find that I am too disgusted to continue using the site.
I am enjoying Kbin so far and I hope that it grows into something really amazing over time.
A certain stage of development has ended - a prototype was created that allowed me to verify whether such a form makes sense in the #fediverse. Until now, it was a project that I developed in my free time. Now, thanks to the great people from Nlnet, I will be able to devote much more time to it. This time, we have already...
Here, I'll start. When I was 8 years old, my parents went to a dinner party and plonked me down in front of the host's computer so I'd stay out of their way. The game they booted up to keep me occupied was Space Quest II. Little did they know what impact that would have on me...
That Reddit will not shut down. It will take the hit and go on and probably make at least some money. Only, it will be a much different place, more like Facebook or Instagram, in that it will be full of ads and less specific information....
Question: I have a notification on one of the magazines saying something about the federation being incomplete or something g like that. It tells me to go see the original instance. In order to interact with that instance, though, I have to have an account. It only seems to be for this one instance, though.

Thanks for sharing the link. His “not guilty” plea is a joke. Did anyone speak out about him having boxes upon boxes of documents removed from their “secure” location? Wondering while no one stopped him.
I really miss chatrooms in general, and I thought we were due for a comeback for the year or two reddit was running them, what with the userbase they have.
I really hope they don’t choose the option with active roads crossing through the park.
This has been a long time in the making. Though I do not live downtown, I could very much see my family and I spending a day at a park like this.
I am concerned with the paid parking situation downtown. We need better public transportation for the people who want to visit but can’t afford parking.
With as much as they seem to be pushing this, they really need to use that money and improve public transportation. Our city sprawl is incredibly large and our residents need their day-to-day transportation needs met. Most KC residents aren’t going to and from the airport every day, but they are going grocery shopping, working, and going to appointments. I feel like the city is trying to be too flashy too soon. Take care of our basic transportation needs first!
Yeah but all the higher-ups care about is making money in the short-term. They figure they won’t be alive for the consequences and that their riches will somehow protect their kids from the shitstorm to come.
A lot subreddits end their blackout tomorrow. Will you go back to Reddit, or continue with kbin and the Fediverse?
I haven't used Reddit at all since the blackout began. Even if they change course, the Fediverse is growing on me, and I think I'll stay here....
Did you reuse your Reddit name or create a new one?
I originally went with the same name but have been using this one now since it's new and the idea of starting fresh appeals to me....

Fighting fire with fire (lemmy.world)
Is there any chance kbin will give chatrooms a go like reddit did? Except maybe get it right and not abandon it halfway through?

How to Save Preferences
How can I save my kbin preferences? Every time I return to the page I have to reset Infinate scrolling and auto media preview.
I just learned about CuriousKC by Flatland and I love it.
