Still no API to enable official apps and no moderation tools. It really feels like it's lagging behind Lemmy at this point. Lemmy's growth has significantly outpaced kbin and it feels like it's going to just die a slow death now.

EDIT: Case in point, there are 3 comments on this thread and I cannot see any of them.

You know what's so much more expensive? Teenagers having babies. That shit is expensive for everyone. Having a child's life ruined and forced to raise a child into another ill prepared adult. Costs society lots of money.

We should all remember Ruth Bader Ginsberg, a woman who fought so hard for so many people's rights and yet was willing to undo all that for the sake of her own pride.

Remember when Obama did this exact thing and Trump just immediately undid it when he became president?

Steve Jobs was full of shit and killed himself with his own over confidence.

I've been with namecheap a long long time now. They rarely raise prices and it's usually because upstream costs go up and everyone is raising prices. I'm a happy customer and ain't switching. I don't get bothered for endless upgrades. I only get emails when my domains come up for renewal or on the very rare occasion this happens.

Apple used to brag about how Macs didn't get viruses. I used to laugh because it wasn't that they were that much more secur but because their market share was too small to be a profitable target.

Now they've cultivated the perfect target user base. A large collection of tech ignorant or adverse people who have lots of money to burn.

The last couple of years we’ve been having fun with some comic experiments during the Summer holiday. Last year, we introduced Lion & Gazelle, who even stuck around because we enjoy the format and how it divers from our normal comics. We also had some fun with euro game covers and before that, we had… Continue reading

If you do any kind of machining, 3D printing, or PCB layout, you probably have at least considered buying a pair of calipers. Old-fashioned ones had a dial and were mechanical devices, but lately, …

Are there any full featured alternatives to PhotoPrism? I'd be happy to support their devs but charging almost $80 a year for basic features like having more than one user is kind of absurd. At that cost I'd rather just pay for the extra dirt cheap storage from Google and keep things there.

That said, I'd really love to continue moving everything I can away from the big G and photos is a sticking point because I have a wife and child and other family members who depend on it.

Why YSK: Because you may delete your account and find your comments and other content is restored and beyond your control.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT YET.

Keep overwriting your comments over and over so they cannot just roll them back a single edit.

I prefer Power Delete Suite as it does not need authorization and just uses the website through your own browser. I will continue to overwrite my comments on repeat until the API changes.

https://kbin.pub/en or https://kbin.fediverse.observer/list
https://join-lemmy.org/ or https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list

You can direct people away from specific instances if, for example, they have been de-federated.
