Yeah, it’s been a while since Ernest has posted anything, and I don’t think he has uploaded any new code in a while. I wonder if there was a roadblock somewhere?
Ernest also said he was having health issues so I hope he’s doing okay.

Thank you so much for the update ernest! I can only imagine how much work this website takes, and I hope you have a swift recovery - skin problems are no joke!
Good to know! I guess we will have to wait for ernest to come back then to enable it on kbin.social.
I hope he is doing well, his last post mentioned a hospital visit.
To the surprise of no one here, they are continuing to make reddit worse.
Well this makes me sad lol.
The game is still fantastic, but a well-done DLC is always welcome.
There is truth to this. But, Reddit’s drama also put the spotlight on the fediverse and the need for alternatives to Reddit in general. Personally, I can say I did not even know it existed. Over the last ten-or-so years, Reddit really did develop a monopoly on forums. The progress we have seen with Kbin, lemmy, etc is because of their heavy-handed and poorly executed crackdown on third-party apps.
But still, you are correct that the fediverse was not yet a full-fledged alternative to Reddit in June. Many lemmy clients, such as Memmy or Mlem, were not ready yet. And most promising Kbin client, Artemis, is still in beta as well. Even Kbin itself is still technically a beta (not that I don’t love them both lol). Had all of these been ready in June, then I think the Reddit exodus would have been much more dramatic and impactful.
I think we need to give it a bit more time. After all, Reddit didn’t get huge overnight either. So long as we keep posting and commenting away, and create environments/communities that are welcoming, we should be able to eventually grow into something that can rival Reddit.
This is going to be a real problem for the actual trial, especially if they deliver a guily verdict (I say if becuase Trump has never faced the consequences of anything in his life).
Right. I have to wonder if this was really a mistake, though? With a case this high profile, I would expect them to be extra cautious.
Of course, mistakes do happen.
I am not surpised. I will, however, be surprised if he faces consequences.
Hi @ernest!
First off, thank you for all your hard work! Kbin is awesome.
Secondly, thank you! I cannot speak for other abandoned and neglected magazines, but we really appreciate your help. @theinspectorst and myself have been working hard to find our moderator to no avail.
Would there be anyone else in addition to @ernest?
The last I heard, he finally got some help developing Kbin. Would they we able to assist?
I know Ernest is absolutely swamped with work. The number of times he must be tagged for help must be staggering…
I second this.
Personally, I was only just able to log in. Was there an update, or did the server just go down? I’m also still having trouble commenting.
