Looks like kbin went kbosh. Hope I'm wrong.
So do I
Not entirely, but neither is it extraordinarily healthy either. We'll see what develops - e.g. maybe its creator will emerge from a binge of programming and it'll become better than ever.
I still doubt that I'd go back after leaving it though - I waited so very long for it to improve, but it only ever seemed to get worse (performance wise), and it has major structual issues too, e.g. all final-say decisions controlled by a single owner who does not communicate much with the outside world.
In fairness, Kbin was not nearly as advanced as Lemmy when the Reddit protests and migration occurred, so a great deal of catching up was inevitably necessary.
Unless I was seeing thing last night, I saw a comment on another post from a user at a kbin social address.
Are you trying to say a comment from me, or from anyone? My last comment on Kbin was a week ago, and the one before that was three weeks ago. I will probably keep my Kbin account and just rarely if ever use it, as opposed to before where it was the only account I had.
Or if you mean anyone, the Kbin.social server is back up now, so yes it is functional. The owner does not communicate much but he works hard to keep it that way, it's just that for whatever reason it has major issues, though it is up right now.
No, if I meant a comment from you I would have said a comment from you. It was a comment from someone on another thread with a [email protected]
Can we really say that after only 1 week? I say that because from what I can see, the .social server appears to be up and running. Although there does not appear to be much movement on the dev front, all seems to be functioning.
