Sorry to hear you're having a rough go of it, but glad you're on the other side of it now. <3

Also, thanks for the reply! Would this be something you could delegate out to someone? I understand you have a lot on your plate.

The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won. (gizmodo.com) en

The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. The article describes it as "the official end of the battle," which seems an overstatement to me, but it's the certainly the end of the initial phase....

I tend to agree with the sentiment here that we are all the winners for having discovered and are still using kbin, a platform that most wouldn't have even known about before Reddit's shenanigans. Though, I want to point out that total user activity on kbin is down 7,000 people since about 10 days ago...

It seems people are either going back, or are abandoning for Lemmy because of their abundance of mobile apps. Artemis is a decent kbin app, and is almost ready to release for public beta now that the API is complete (just waiting on integration) - though I fear it needs to happen sooner than later if we are to retain the userbase.

Yeah. that is probably true for many since we all came looking for an alternative due to the loss of our mobile app... Lemmy is a little more mature since it's been around a lot longer, so it already had an API to build on. @Rideranton has been working on an API and has several pending pull requests to implement one. I truly believe kbin is a better software so I'm hoping that the API sparks more dev interest.

Agreed! Now get out there and contribute to kbin specific magazines and be part of it!

Considering the level of coordination it takes to make anything cohesive on those, let's see spez try and downplay us again with 'only a small percentage of users'.

It's either public feedback, or it can't be trusted.

So anyone can pay to manipulate content now, and not just people with big pockets? Neat. I think I'll just buy @ernest more coffee...

McBinary,
@McBinary@kbin.social avatar

Yep. Got a ton of errors... It happens a lot here. I deleted all but 1.

Applying gold and awards will hold posts on the frontpage even if they're downvoted to oblivion. They're likely getting rid of them as a way of manipulating the narrative.

I went to reddit a little while ago to check on the status of my favored reddit app, and past the top 15 or so posts is the same shit I saw days ago. New content there has seriously dropped off.

They're not fans of Corpos in the cyberpunk community. What a shocker!

It could mean all content, full stop. Everything can be offensive to someone.

Wow. Just checked. The newest post in that sub is 3 weeks old.

I wish there was a way to load balance signups. Kbin.social is sure to take the brunt of this next wave since it's the namesake.

I'm glad you went for a kbin.chat domain name, that should help new users to be a little less confused with choosing a home instance.

McBinary,
@McBinary@kbin.social avatar

Then you block them. Individually at first. If there is a whole instance of them, like exploding-heads or lemmygrad, then you nuke their whole instance and move on.

Kbin App from @dansup

Here's the latest from him: It's called KBam

I guess the "won't effect accessibility apps" was also a blatant lie...

I'm glad they're making changes.
