Kbin has a questionable track record of ignoring input from its users and also going offline for a day or more at random. So I created an alt account on Lemmy.

Hey, I know you!

The orb has spoken. The orb is correct.

We shall consult the orb. The orb knows all.

Oh. Heh.

I don’t get it

The 10 people who would’ve voted for him are very upset

Just look at that penetration

Cool, and I respect that. And I respect Ernest for what he does and he doesn’t owe anyone anything at all. But if you open source a thing and then almost completely ignore your user base, it’s just a bit disappointing.

Where are the warnings? If they’re in some particular magazine that maybe not every user is subscribed to, then this is a bad practice.

I’m not one to knock a developer on their software. Making things like kbin are complex and they certainly take effort to maintain and improve. That being said, these are my complaints about the management of kbin:

Why is there hardly ever any feedback from Ernest about why kbin is down? It just comes back up and that’s the end of it, until the next outage. A link to an explanation, or detailed banner message, or a schedule would be nice, assuming that these outages are scheduled.

Why has Ernest insisted on being the only developer to work on this? This creates a potential “single point of failure” situation.

None of the git issues on Codeberg seem to get triaged or responded to.

Ernest rarely responds to DMs on kbin.

At this point, I think I’m just going to create an alternate Lemmy account to avoid these blackouts.

Yeaaaah I’m not buying that shit

Oh, I know what the threat to America is! It’s everybody with an R next to their name in our government. They say that the R stands for republican, but it really means Russian.

I just feel bad for all the fish that have to swim by that piece of shit now.

A 2022 estimate I found said 19,000 barrels per day.

I wonder how much oil the navy uses per year

Shockingly, it appears that it still has an average 480k daily players
