I gave up on kbin social months ago when it went down with no idea when it would be working again. I ended up going over to lemmy.world.
Same…
I am still hoping that Ernest is able to recover and get back on his feet. I did really like how Kbin was able to interface with Mastodon and Lemmy.
Ernest did respond a couple weeks ago on codeberg. Looks like he plans to hand the instance over for new management. I have no idea when exactly that will happen.
made this one during the last one and been spending more time on it.
Wasnt kbin development abandoned?
I still have my kbin.social account as well as this current one. Its good to have back ups for both
I only look into kbin.social occasionally to see if they finally got their spam problem under control. They were nice maybe a year ago, but now it is a dumpster fire with half the main page being ads for drugs and junk services.
I am not sure if this has been posted here, but @ernest@kbin.social posted this on codeberg a couple weeks ago.
”I have been away from home for a long time now and do not have all accesses. I will try to restore access in the coming days. The care of the instance will also be handed over.”
I sincerely hope Ernest is able to get back on his feet; his health hasn’t been good since the beginning of the year. Kbin is a great concept.
fedia: No. Registrations are closed.Thanks for the correction, DarkThoughts. Seems there were enough donations do reopen registrations. 👍
I moved to lemme.ee because Kbin.social was down. Sort of a bummer…
