Anyone else getting deja vu from last November :) Loving this so much!

Chat as a social platform felt like such a low bar for me. Discord itself is such a violent collection of colours and features, just an overall unenjoyable experience. It's also just ICQ, as Slack was IIRC.

I'm going to sound old and yell at the clouds right, so look away if you wish, sound but they did just monetized two communication methods that already existed, were free, but not branded for the masses.

Why are you not seeing as many posts from Lemmy communities on Kbin?

Hello! You may have noticed that the majority of posts and threads in your feed on Kbin are from within the platform itself. This is because the admin has activated Cloudflare DDoS protection which basically slows down requests to kbin, to prevent the website from experiencing downtime or becoming slow to respond....

Thanks for the update, I've been trying to get a sense of my front page's activity and haven't felt the surge of info I thought I would have with my Lemmy subs involved.

Kbin Roadmap 2023

A certain stage of development has ended - a prototype was created that allowed me to verify whether such a form makes sense in the #fediverse. Until now, it was a project that I developed in my free time. Now, thanks to the great people from Nlnet, I will be able to devote much more time to it. This time, we have already...

It's absolutely WILD that this is a prototype. It's always a treat to be on the ground floor of something new, so I'm excited to participate and add value to kbin's growth.

Can we add a Stage 10 Branding?

The foundation of the Fediverse lies in it's values, ActivityPub, and communities, but that doesn't mean we can't match the aesthetic values that exist outside of our rich inner world. Personally, would love to see a name change and clean colour palette. Kbin is a fairly UNIX-esque name and we do want people with less affinity for tech to enjoy kbin with as little barriers as possible.

Just my $0.02 on the subject. I'm here to be a cheerleader and support what's being build :)
