The future of kbin.earth... ( kbin.earth )
This post doesn't directly affect kbin.social users, but it is relevant. It discusses some of the potential pros/cons of Kbin and Mbin, and also the direction the kbin.earth server is heading.

Start composing a reply to this thread. Did you notice you can change the size of the reply field by dragging the right bottom corner? ( kbin.social )
I think that's cool. I have not discovered a limit to how large you can make the box.
Ernest needs to quickly delegate or this instance will quickly die ( kbin.social )
I appreciate that earnest made a post yesterday, or maybe it was the day before, saying that he is not dead and hasn't given up on kbin. It's not on this magazine, so I'm not sure where it was since this seems to be the most appropriate one, but in any case....
RE: Is Ernest still here? ( kbin.social )
I check in here quite often, but for now, I'm just focusing on clearing spam and keeping the instance alive. In January, I was working on the AP module, and there has been significant progress in the work, which hasn't been publicly published yet. Unfortunately, at the beginning of the year, I developed a skin condition that...
Reddit has never turned a profit in nearly 20 years, but it just filed to go public anyway ( edition.cnn.com )

Can registrations on kbin.social be disabled to stop spammers ( kbin.social )
kbin.social is being overrun with spammers. Can we disable registrations on this instance so they can't keep creating new accounts? Every day I log on, I have to spend the first 20-30 minutes, reporting and blocking a bunch of new accounts....
Reddit revenue rises 20% ahead of IPO, but it isn’t profitable yet ( www.businesstimes.com.sg )
REDDIT posted a more than 20 per cent rise in revenue in 2023 versus the year before, sources familiar with the situation said, as it prepares for one of the United States’ most anticipated potential initial public offerings (IPOs).
Do any of you program on non-US keyboard layouts?
I’ve used a US-QWERTY keyboard layout my entire life. I’ve seen other layouts that do things like reduce the size of the enter/backspace keys, move the pipe operator (|) and can’t wrap my head around how I would code on those....
Cross posting norms and etiquette? ( kbin.social )
I still don’t really understand crossposting or the multiple link options on kbin. What should kbin users know about crossposting and linking?
Issue with sort by hot ( kbin.social )
This has been an issue since the beginning of Kbin tmk, but when you make a post, it won't appear under sort by hot unless it has an upvote. This means that if someone forgets to upvote their own post, it just won't appear on the default sort. There are plenty of posts I've missed because of this....
Reporting? ( kbin.social )
So im pretty happy with users just being able to block and control things themselves but there has been posts from this somali call girls account where I feel like the extra step of reporting is warranted.
[Solved] How to get rid of the arrows at the bottom of comments which collapse/expand the text? ( kbin.social )
They always obscure part of the text, no matter what. I juat want the full text....
What's the quickest way to find a magazine/community you've subscribed to? ( kbin.social )
I've been using kbin since the Reddit exodus and I still don't really know the path to finding my way into a specific community/magazine I've subscribed to. I usually search for the name using the search function, then hope I find a thread from there in the results where I can just click directly into it. Surely there must be a...
RTR#50 Plans for the upcoming week ( kbin.social )
Lately, I've been dealing with a slight fever associated with the beginning of the year. I'm trying to ensure that everything runs fairly smoothly. Today and tomorrow, I need to focus on planning finances for the upcoming year and handle formalities related to the project. In the following days, I'll implement changes to fix...
Two requests for microblog incorporation into the main feed. ( kbin.social )
First off, I absolutely love that microblogs are a part of my main feed now....
Improved Channel Select Menu 0.2.0 — Makes your subscribed magazines and liked channels more accessible ( greasyfork.org )
One of my most wanted features as of late has been for the channel select menu to have my subscribed magazines and liked collections. Right now, it just contains some general feeds, but I thought it'd be super useful to also have your mags and collections there for easy access! However, given that Kbin development priorities are...
Kbin or Mbin? Which do you prefer?
Thinking of leaving Lemmy for kbin or mbin to have Mastodon integration. Mastodon is my favorite place in the fediverse and it looks like kbin/mbin will allow me to interact with EVERYTHING under one account rather than have a Lemmy and Mastodon account.
[UPDATE] Issues with the functioning of kbin.social ( kbin.social )
The main issues with the improper functioning of the instance have been resolved, but it led to additional complications. Currently, using the instance should be quite comfortable, but I will continue to work intensively on a comprehensive solution for the next few days. Therefore, occasional interruptions or errors may still...

To those genuinely interested in moderating ( kbin.social )
@Ernest has pushed an update which allows users to request ownership/moderation of abandoned magazines. Ghost/abandoned magazines were fairly prevalent after the initial wave of hype due to users either squatting magazine names or becoming inactive for other reasons. Now is your chance to get involved, if you were waiting to do...
