As you noticed, I had to temporarily enable DDoS protection. Someone is trying quite effectively to distract me from my activities ;p Unfortunately, this may cause some issues with the federation. I will try to cut off the traffic as soon as possible and return to normal operation. Thank you for all your support and patience! :)
Wait reddit banned a sub showing how to make an account here? They are trying to speedrun their demise at this point.
Want to hear some irony? I’m here because I saw a thread on Reddit about that subreddit being banned.
I saw that and immediately went “alright, sounds like Kbin is the place to be!” If reddit is banning it, then Kbin must be seen as a threat.
Nice, the Streisand Effect is working
Same. Made my account this morning and since then this site is visibly more active already.
Me too! Today I tried both this and Lemmy, but I find Kbin more to my taste in terms of interface, and I can still access all of the Lemmy threads, which resolves the only issue (IMHO) of kbin: lemmy seems to have more content and “threads/magazines/subreddits”.
I hope to make Kbin my new home after the Reddit exodus!
Same! I’ve been trying to comment this on Reddit where possible so that others won’t try just lemmy and give up. Hoping to stay here permanently
