Is using the router and modem my cable company provided for my internet putting my privacy at risk? And if so, I have heard of openWRT routers but it seems like there’s quite a bit of a learning curve with that but even if I got one would I need a non cable company branded modem as well? Any specifically that anyone here would...
Kbin has a questionable track record of ignoring input from its users and also going offline for a day or more at random. So I created an alt account on Lemmy.
Do you drink the cereal-flavored milk straight from the bowl? I grew up doing this because my parents taught me how good that milk tastes. As I’ve gotten older, I feel a little self-conscious about doing it in public. It’s not something I notice other non-children doing....
It’s been inaccessible for roughly 24hrs right now and I’m having a hard time finding any group talking about it. Was there a change recently, or some kind of an explanation posted?
I’m not one to knock a developer on their software. Making things like kbin are complex and they certainly take effort to maintain and improve. That being said, these are my complaints about the management of kbin:
Why is there hardly ever any feedback from Ernest about why kbin is down? It just comes back up and that’s the end of it, until the next outage. A link to an explanation, or detailed banner message, or a schedule would be nice, assuming that these outages are scheduled.
Why has Ernest insisted on being the only developer to work on this? This creates a potential “single point of failure” situation.
None of the git issues on Codeberg seem to get triaged or responded to.
Ernest rarely responds to DMs on kbin.
At this point, I think I’m just going to create an alternate Lemmy account to avoid these blackouts.
Cool, and I respect that. And I respect Ernest for what he does and he doesn’t owe anyone anything at all. But if you open source a thing and then almost completely ignore your user base, it’s just a bit disappointing.
Just in time for a potential second Trump presidency. Let’s make sure we have a bunch of cutting edge nuclear shit ready for him to use, steal and/or sell if he takes office. Great!
