Arguably one of the most important sites too. People had accounts for week over a decade, they’re rightly pissed when a place you used to love turns to shit because some dropkick CEO wants to pump his upcoming IPO

Sweet. Can’t wait to see how it all turns out! 🦙

I finally got my changes out to the Android PWA and I’m super happy with how it’s working now. Beforehand it had an ugly icon and no shortcut / action icons. Now it’s fairly good looking.

There’s a change coming to the “themes” section which I’m happy for. Love getting through these updates

That’s fair. There’s been a lot of PRs and issues focusing on mobile (like adding collapsible comments) but being a community project it all takes time to get it approved and pushed.

I’m keen on getting through as many mobile / UX centric improvements to mobile since that’s primarily how I use kbin.

The REST API is still in development. Once that gets released I’m sure app devs will spring up and build something fancy. I think Artemis is already working on an integration but that’s with html scraping.

There’s been a heap of work on the mobile UI/UX and I’m constantly pushing to get more mobile centric features into prod.

I like that there’s both an update, downvote and boost feature. Recently the sorting / weighting mechanism was changed where boost = 2 upvotes so it’s nice to upvote something + give it a boost so it sorts higher.

There’s a lot of customization user wise also, I’ve been exceptionally busy working with the other contributors to make the mobile UI/UX a priority. There’s been a heap of dev work going around so keen to see when that all gets into prod.

I’ve got a feeling that with another solid month or two of updates, tweaks and features that kbin will be really solid.

There’s also several contributors who are actively working on improving the settings and adding in new features. I’ve been proposing a few changes for the mobile UI, letting you change up the mobile layout but all of that things take time (and add complexity) so it’s slow moving

Yep keen on the layout overall

Drastically reduced my usage and now spend that time on other side projects / reading. I miss the large volume of comment but don’t miss being treated like an obstacle (like how reddit leadership sees their users)
