The warning is just a general reminder that kbin is in beta and remote communities won't always work 100% perfectly

This is great, I never knew I needed something like this! One problem I noticed though is that if you have the top bar enabled (the one that shows the list of random magazines), it shows up in the top of the notifications panel.

Sweet, thanks for the quick fix!

releasing 5 updates in an hour lmao

Just say you're doing Agile development lmao

I did some digging and finally found XTranslate, which works basically exactly how I was hoping!

I love Donner Lake! I've stayed there a few times and it's always great. Nevada City is a lot of fun too, especially when there's a street fair going on

Where's the waffle iron guy from r/mechanicalkeyboards when we need him most?

It'd be fun to have a random kbird generator like those monkey NFTs, but for free (of course)

We need an autotldr bot for the fediverse, but apparently it uses smmry, that could be used until someone makes a bot

Cool clip of someone displaying some graphs on an old VFD display. ~30 seconds (youtu.be)

God I really need to get back into tinkering. This video (and the Posy VFD video, which is probably the reason YouTube recommended this to me) makes me long for the days when electronics were more unique. Everything had its own look, every display had to be intentionally designed around the hardware limitations of the time....

That's sick, the graphs look beautiful! I've wanted to do something like that with a VFD since I saw Posy's video. The fact that the person behind this video managed to get an X server working with it on top of the terminal blows my mind

I have to get around to finishing this at some point, I had a ton of fun in the few hours I have played it

It's something that you wouldn't have seen unless you created a magazine (or community). In the magazine settings, there's a tab to view statistics like the number of posts, comments, and votes made per day. Before the update, all of the graphs were in Polish, so they were impossible to interpret without google translate. But now, they're properly translated into the language that you use

Sweet, looking forward to it!

A lot of avatar photos are broken for me, same with a lot of the thumbnails and magazine icons. Something weird must be going on

I absolutely love the new Tokyo Night theme.

Same, I've been rocking it since the update!

Emojis are part of how people speak online, I always found it weird how big a deal people made out of people using them on Reddit

OC I designed and rendered a couple of icons for the magazines I started, and I’d like to share some behind the scenes images with y'all. I’m also open to doing a few more of these in future.

So I 3D modelled two icons (well, illustrations rather) for the communities that I created on kbin: Industrial Design and Jewelry Design. These icons are meant to reimagine kbin’s logo in a way that's relevant to each community....

These look incredible! Would you mind making one for /m/enhancement? I think it'd be the perfect logo for the userscript we've been working on (right now we're calling it kbin Enhancement Suite), we haven't released it just yet but we're hoping to follow in the footsteps of RES

Could you release the 3D model for just a "stock" folder icon so others can make their own modifications?

I was thinking something like an "upgraded" version of the kbin logo with random switches, buttons, and other bits and bobs stuck to it could be pretty cool

And good to hear that you'll be sharing the files! Can't wait to mess with them and make some logos of my own :)
