New Generationals drop arrived a few days back, really happy with the pressing. Great from front to back!
Curious, if you were/are a Reddit user, will you be leaving the platform for good or have you already? CEO has called unpaid moderators' concerns "noise", that will be "passing soon."
There's a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we've seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would....
I bought a scale three months ago and I lost 40lbs since then.
At 32 I'm fitter than I've ever been before.

Has anyone else been losing track of time in the Fediverse?
I've heard other people talk about falling down Reddit holes over the years, but I was never this engaged on Reddit. I posted maybe a handful of times. I'd usually browse r/popular/top set to desktop version in Firefox on mobile without logging in. Here, though, I'm literally losing sleep and hours pass because the energy, the...
OC What are some hobbies you have that carry you through the day/week? Feel free to share them here!
I absolutely 100% look forward to my hobbies every day of the week. I picked up some new ones over the past two years and they have been an immeasurable asset to my sanity and happiness over the past two years. The first being that I'm picking up, and practicing guitar again. I have a starter setup still and that is ample for my...
What's the furthest you've been from your home? What was the experience like?
I once took a trip to eastern Europe (multiple locations) which took me about half way across the world from where I'm at. I think I'd have been closer to home if I went any further east or west at that point.
OC How did you end up finding kbin? Did you migrate here from Reddit?
I was initially introduced to Mastodon a few years ago by a close friend and picked up on it quickly given the benefits of not having to deal with advertising, or being shown what a mega-corporation thought I should have to see through algorithms. I have since found a great instance over on cupoftea.social that promotes quality...
So fathers day will be celebrated on Sunday, June 18th in US, UK, CA & more. Do you have anything planned?
I thought this would be a good reminder as well. While I am not a father myself, I spend time with mine usually, doing whatever he has planned for the day. We're not really much for exchanging cards and such. I think time spent together is an ample way to spend the day overall....

Picked up two new restocks from Ruby Haunt. Currently spinning Nevada!
Super excited about our community (m/chat) reaching 500 subs/700 comments in just over 3 days.
Hey all, we just ticked over the 500 sub mark. It's been very encouraging reading your stories of how you've found this community, the wider fediverse and reading what you have to say! I am confident we can continue to grow and keep the same friendly vibe going forward....
Should m/Chat have an accompanying Discord or Matrix?
So I was mulling over the idea of adding a Discord or Matrix chat in the bio. Would anyone want to participate in a chat for this magazine? If so, which platform would you prefer to use? I have noticed that other magazines have Discord links in their bios, which seems alright....
