Good morning! :) Today I want to focus mainly on reviewing the pull requests you've submitted. There are many great things there that will help improve the kbin experience. That's amazing, thank you! I'm also in the final stages of sorting out the infrastructure-related formalities. Soon, the situation with the website's...
It appears the option is there for microblog comments but not thread or post comments. Am I missing something? Eg. Comments and sub comments in the post won't have the option.
since this is a client change (rather than a system change), it would only apply to kbin (and not be available via API). there are some customizations that are through api, but this wouldn't be one of them!
Why am I negative in my reputation? I have not made any posts of comments that are negative (accept for maybe a small one or two but it would have been like 4 to 6 or something). Why am I -46 when I have a highly upvoted thread?
SOOOOOO after finally setting up my kbin dev environment I went ahead and wrote some code to add support for EXACTLY this on the official kbin codebase!
Now just need @ernest 's approval and once it's merged you'll be able to do this on kbin without any modifications!!!
edit: clicking on a comment now also hides its content (other than the username), making it even more clear which threads are collapsed! (similar to apollo) – updated the demo gif
I love the huge touch target for mobile friendliness, and I've done some work to make sure accidental collapses don't happen (if you mean to select text it won't collapse, if you click on a link or a button it won't collapse either!)
is there a common situation where you'd accidentally collapse stuff when you dont mean to?
interesting, sounds closer to a complete redesign on how we see and interact with the comment – i mostly use apollo so i kinda took the design language there but def see what you're saying!
limiting my change to specifically comment thread collapsing since that sounds like a bigger overhaul!
TBH that's not too hard to do, but it goes back to the whole mobile friendliness :(
IMO i think the upside of mobile friendliness outweigh the times people accidentally tap on touchpad, and i personally think just having the header being a touch target is a little too small for mobile users.. so i prefer the whole comment being a target
obviously if folks disagree heavily i could probably adjust but i'm curious what @ernest thinks
I think we’ve all felt it today across the various Lemmy and Kbin instances. There is certainly a surge of new users and content coming through now (which definitely isn’t a bad thing!)...
hehe just put up my first PR.. collapsable comment threads!!!!!!! literally went through all the hassle setting up just so i could contribute this XD https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/167
Currently, each thread has the "Activity" link that shows publicly everyone that upvoted/favorite a thread. This is counter norm to many coming from Reddit and newer folks that expected otherwise. I think hiding the list should be high priority in next feature update(removal?) to encourage frictionless upvoting behavior....
There's a pull request to have your subscriptions to be private (https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/112) – hopefully that helps to some extent? i don't see these pull requests getting merged but probably because @ernest is slammed
I see that you can change your feed to only what you’re subscribed to, but I’m pretty used to checking specific subreddits on reddit on the favorites page for Apollo — can’t seem to find a way to do the same with kbin...
after some digging i found that you can get this under settings > subscriptions — IMO not super intuitive and i wish there was a way we could get there quickly from the sidebar like apollo
I remember there was an app that showed how cooked / not raw the meat was cooked, and it helped people with color blindness by making sure the meat is cooked via cameras— seems useful with AR!
/kbin - a few quick announcements

Why are the collapse and expand options missing when I view comments on a post?

Question about reputation
Why am I negative in my reputation? I have not made any posts of comments that are negative (accept for maybe a small one or two but it would have been like 4 to 6 or something). Why am I -46 when I have a highly upvoted thread?
Collapse comment thread?
Is there any way to collapse comments and their children in the interface? Seems like a fairly basic feature but I can't find it.
kbin.social is.. fast again?
been using it in and out and now it's... much faster? on both mobile and desktop :O am i just crazy or did @ernest bless us with a miracle
Landing page, on-boarding, new instances, lots of new users, oh my!

Recommend to have the "Upvote" or Favorites list be hidden.

Is there a way to view the LIST of magazines i’m subscribed to on kbin?

Question Of The Week: What's an app you'd like to try in visionOS?
Can be an app that exists on other platforms or a new idea, as long as you don't mind sharing....
