  • It’s not one week of inactivity, is has been going on for months

    Looks at 2 months straight of kbin devlogs since October, when the man was having pretty significant personal issues

    Not to mention he was: recently sick; tended to financial issues, and personal matters; formalities relating to the project. This isn’t even mentioning that he communicated this in the devlog magazine. Or the fact that he has implemented suggestions multiple times at the request of the community to enhance QoL, and allowed users to have agency in making mod contributions.

    You might want to take your own advice. This has also allowed me to revise my earlier statement. You people are actually insane.





  • Since @ernest is the owner for that magazine, I think moderator requests have to go through him. Unfortunately, he was dealing with a slight fever awhile ago, and has been dealing with financial planning and project formalities awhile back as well. Hopefully things haven’t gotten worse. For what it’s worth, I think it’s great you’re eager to contribute. There have definitely been some spam issues recently. I hope a solution can be found soon. Maybe even something like posts which have a <10% upvote-to-downvote ratio over a day/week can be temporarily quarantined until an admin approves of it. Anyways, best of luck with modship.


  • I’ve only felt the need to change distros once, from Linux Mint to EndeavourOS, because I wanted Wayland support. I realize there were ways to get Wayland working on Mint in the past, but I’ve already made the switch and have already gotten used to my current setup. I personally don’t feel like I’m missing out by sticking to one distro, tbh. If you’re enjoying Mint, I’d suggest to stick with it, unless another distro fulfills a specific need you can’t get on Mint.












  • Good question. In the past, there have been some federation issues. However, things have seemed fine for awhile now. I will admit that it’s entirely possible that there are issues that I may not be aware of. I don’t do any extensive testing as I’m just a regular user, and /kbin is a younger platform which tries to do something different from lemmy and mastodon. If the Collections feature interests you, I might suggest just making a kbin account to give it a test run. You can essentially have the same feed you do now thanks to federation, but with the added benefit of feeds more suited to your interests. Public Collections are also very useful for discovering similar communities across the fediverse.
