  • I don’t quite understand what you mean. The problem is that in such a case, it’s challenging to provide a specific estimate. That’s why I occasionally provide updates in case the work is prolonged. It seems to me that this is how it works. Issues arose without any interference in the code or infrastructure. I addressed hardware problems, but it turned out that wasn’t the only issue. Throughout this entire period, I’ve been attempting to ensure that the instance operates as smoothly as possible. It should be significantly better now, but I’m still actively working on it. Unfortunately, taking a holiday break here doesn’t help either.







  • Thank you for the work you’ve put in, guys. Life can really knock you off your feet sometimes, and I’m pretty sure Hariette has a good reason to be offline now. II really hope everything works out for her and one day she’ll be able to come back.

    As for myself, at the beginning of the year, I plan to dust off the drawer and return to my mobile client that I started some time ago, and develop it in my free time. If someone likes /kbin feeling, I’m pretty sure they’ll also enjoy this app ;)



  • In the latest thing with Reddit’s /kbin, it was still in the early prototype phase (and remains so to this day). Prior to this, practically only I and a few friends were using it. It wasn’t ready to handle the sudden creation of dozens of instances or accommodate thousands of users. Additionally, real-world issues emerged that demanded my immediate attention. I made the decision to take a step back instead of getting caught up in a race, opting to build solid foundations, which is exactly what I’m doing now. In my opinion, this will be better for the project and potential contributors, ensuring that their work will be utilized to the best possible extent.





  • Oh, come on, I’m not that sensitive ;-) Constructive criticism helps me set goals, prioritize tasks on my board, and broaden my horizons when it comes to the overall experience with the platform. I really appreciate that. The fact is that Lemmy had a lot more time. I remember when they started federation tests, I was writing my first line of code. Some things just need time to mature. For me, it’s not a race. I simply have a clear goal that I’m determined to achieve - to create a solid, accessible platform that others can benefit from and enjoy. Who knows, maybe it’ll become the best in the entire fediverse someday ;-) Now, after the break, I’ll be working on federation but also on customizing the feed to tailor it as much as possible to individual needs. Cheers!
