/kbin is certainly not dying, as @fr0g pointed out, work on new features and bug fixes is ongoing. However, it may give the impression that it is, and for that, I take full responsibility and owe you an explanation....
If I can't meet the deadline, I will step down from leading the project and transfer full rights over the repository and instance to the contributors.
I respect you entirely but this is a bit dramatic. Not all projects can be on time due to complications and no one is asking you to step down. Please just do what is necessary - you're doing fantastic!
According to Billet themselves, they heard nothing about compensation or payback until about 3 hours after the original GN video went live… Which Billet hadnt even replied to before Linus made his post saying they’ve already made the deal on compensation.
The issue with the water block is massive to me. Testing a prototype product on a GPU that it wasn’t made for, giving it a negative review, doubling down on that negative review when called out, promising to return the prototype to Billet Labs, then SELLING the prototype to the public at their LTX expo. As Steve points out, if a competitor gets their hands on that prototype, it could put Billet Labs out of business. This is wild, and LMG should absolutely be called out like this.
Those companies are such a drag for human society because they are afraid of their bottom line. the Music Industry and Amazon also would have burned down the Library of Alexandria if they had deemed it worrisome to their profit.

I read an article in the New York Times about Elon Musk wanting to make X, formally known as Twitter, into an everything app. The article also mentions other attempts. Would that be the last thing we would want?...
We already have an Everything App that allows you to execute all the different functions of your phone, it’s called the operating system. The proposed app would just be a smaller, shittier OS with fewer functions and no choices. Elon is a failed Steve Jobs—which is depressing because Jobs was also a charlatan—who thinks “what if it was one thing” is actually the answer the all technology, because he doesn’t understand technology as well as he thinks. Pro tip: carrying around 1 device instead of a cell phone, a pager, an mp3 player, and a PDA is helpful. Consolidating different functions that have no reason to interplay with each other into a big mess is not.
Most of the communities I'm interested in are on lemmy.world, programming.dev, etc where they have a large activity there, but the UI/UX of kbin is what's holding me here....
Currently, kbin has no delays in the queues. This may be due to not all streams being sent to us or an error in the federation. Over the next few weeks, this process will be improved.
The federation between the Mastodon instances I am using for testing is either immediate or takes a maximum of a few seconds. However, other instances may experience their own delays.
Today, the clearing of some sessions was intentional. But I have heard about it before. Are you sure that you logged in with the "Remember me" option checked?
2nd single off King Gizz new heavy metal album. Super fun song. Basically two old school thrash songs with a TOOL song in the middle. Hilarious and fun music video.

Is Kbin dying? I wanted to address the deleted thread and provide some insight into the current situation.
