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.
Just in time for a potential second Trump presidency. Let’s make sure we have a bunch of cutting edge nuclear shit ready for him to use, steal and/or sell if he takes office. Great!
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 read the first Dune book and I hated it. I know the book is 60 years old, but all the plot devices, references and lore really sounded dated and it really killed the vibe for me. I also didn’t find Herbert to be a very good storyteller, and there were many plot points severely lacking in detail. The latest movie however, was pretty fucking awesome, and gave the story the futuristic feel it was lacking in the book.
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.
