Yup, pretty much. And most of the times I've seen right wing people just come comment the most batshit crazy thing imaginable. This doesn't mean left wing lunatics don't exist too.

You're in for a bad ride then. There will always be politics in some magazines/threads.

As the title says I've noticed that in the past day kBin often freezes up when I view a thread (Firefox pops up asking me if I want to stop the tab or not). I use Firefox on EndeavourOS but I didn't have any problems with it for the past 2 weeks.

Is anyone else encountering this/is it a new bug?

I grew such hatred for this man in the past years I wish he would just ruin himself and not hear a delusional thing from him ever again.

I agree. Of all the social media platforms I've used, Linkedin is the closest to an insane asylum I could get.

  • Keeping my reading habit throughout the past decade.
  • Choosing the "wise" path of Computer Science instead of Physics as my degree: I absolutely love math and physics but sadly in my country research and teaching are poorly financed and paid. I don't love CS but I enjoy it enough and also the pay is very good even for a fresh graduate.
  • Learning about finances and investing. I don't expect to FIRE but at least I think I'm on the good path

And some will probably give Linux a try. I only stopped pirating Windows because it got free, but I have no intention to pay a subscription to be able to use my fucking PC.

Maybe have the upvote button also boost the post would be the way to go?

Increasing “value” for shareholders in spite of user experience should be a reason to be sent to the guillotine.

In al seriousness now, being profitable is ok, but these companies try to be ever more profitable while not giving a flying fuck about the impact they have.

And if everyone still jumps ship from lemmy/kbin/whatever to their proprietary platform then the project was doomed from the beginning. I find kBin really good for such a new product (can't speak for mod tools) and I can't imagine many features that might make Threads preferable.

Basically late-stage capitalism

First of all I would like to suggest to @ernest to take a day or two break from working on kbin and in general to not overwork himself.
Secondly, some sort of Patreon should be setup to streamline the donation process. I, probably like many others would like to just set up a recurring donation and forget about it.
Thirdly, I think it would be great we also have something like https://beehaw.org/post/428209 to keep this as transparent as possible.

Seems like the federation was turned on not long ago. It's very exciting to be part of kbin's growth!
