I think it’s gonna take a few more incidents on Reddit if we really want users to migrate to the Fediverse. Right now a bulk of the migrations are happening as the 3PAs had died, but we’ll see how much of the momentum will be kept.

I think it’s good practice to change passwords after an attack no matter what

More like it tried to forcibly merge the instances

I don’t see any weird content, but I couldn’t log in. There’s a notification at the bottom that says “logged in” but I’m still blinded by light mode.

If extra layer of “difficulty” is introduced by giving the users the choice of an instance is enough to keep them away, then I’m all for it.

It just needs to be easier for the ones that managed to figure it all out (better apps, stability, UI/UX, and QOL updates)

IMO the only algorithm I’ll accept for lemmy/kbin is slightly faster “expiration” for posts, sometimes some posts stay too long on my frontpage.

HiFi Rush is such a unique banger both in terms of art direction and game design, shame it released so early in the year.

I hope it’s not forgotten when awards season rolls around.

Just a heads up, I think you should remove the exclamation points in your links, it resulted in a 404 for me before I removed them.

I can see this being helpful

(commenting so I can bookmark)

I’ve found that a hybrid between print and cursive works best for me in most cases. That said, it becomes “cursive” if I wanna go faster, which also makes my writing progressively illegible lol

The music really added to the experience. Control is a really great, original game. I’m excited for the sequel!

… and watch it become not-satire and then fully serious

It’s gonna need some careful moderation to keep it fully satire methinks

At this point they’re just gerrymandering the pizza

This is helpful, thanks!

(commenting so I can also bookmark it in a way, there is still no save feature)

Like @psyspoop said, touchpads can be prone to accidental collapses. Maybe setting the touch target to be on the “header” of the comment (the whitespace between the username and the upvote/downvote buttons) could be a good compromise?

Well, I’m definitely buying Ernest a coffee now: buymeacoffee.com/kbin

Thanks for the reassurance, but please take rests too! If there was a way to donate then please feel free to post it somewhere, I can see a lot of potential here.

you realize that some instances ARE problematic even if you have access to the entire federated content from it.

Personally I needed reassurance that an instance at least appears to be committed into fighting hate speech, especially as a gay guy

and Kbin presents a front that feels easier to grasp when you’re not familiar with the concept of the Fediverse

As a similarly sorta-but-not-super-techie guy, I agree. Kbin nailed the presentation of the Fediverse by introducing a UI and experience that is remarkably similar to Reddit. For that reason alone I hope Kbin comes out as the most successful (or at least viable) alternative.

My only concern is how kbin will connect to the rest of the lemmy instances, some of my favorite subreddits seem to have migrated to different instances, and I think it’ll benefit everyone if there was a way to conveniently combine them.

Right now I’m exploring this and lemmy.world, my worry is that kbin seems disconnected from the other lemmy instances, whether that’s by design or not, I dunno.

I agree though, kbin has a FANTASTIC interface compared to most of the lemmy instances I’ve seen. If I had to pick one, I’d stick with kbin for now, but I hope this inspires good UI/UX development in lemmy where all the buzz is. The markdown implementation here is quite different from what I’m used to, but it’s nice that it’s there.

The only thing missing is a proper app. I haven’t tried the PWA yet, but that in itself is promising.
