The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we… kill those people.
It's just a ride.
lemmy.ml is no longer shadowbanning kbin. (lemmy.ml)
Apparently one of the lemmy.ml admins was overzealous in banning all User-Agent strings that contained the word "bot". Bans were entered for all of the individual strings containing that word which were observed in their webserver logs, which impacted kbin's reported agent of "kbinBot"....

OC Really missing a true "save" ability for posts and comments on kbin
I am aware that upvoted posts make it to https://kbin.social/fav however that just doesn't work well as I already have 1,000+ pages in there. Moreover, that only registers upvoted posts and not comments. A workaround would be to just use boost, and only upvote when you want to "save" but that is just not conventional imho. The...

Kbin is in Polish after the newest update
Since the newest update, I see Kbin on a different language. I think it's Polish, or some similar language. The strange thing is that I don't remember a setting where one can change the display language. And the other strange thing is that this happens only on desktop. If I see Kbin via mobile, the page is in English....
