Helvetin nätti. Paljon uppos nykyhinnoilla materiaaleihin?
On täysin OK ettei joku kansalainen itse halua aktiivisesti osallistua rasisminvastaiseen aktivismiin, mutta ei todellakaan ole OK silti ajatella, että yhteiskunnan yleisesti ei pitäisi rasisminvastaista aktivismia harrastaa. Valtionhallinon täytyy tehdä rasisminvastaista työtä, siinä missä sen täytyy edistää muitakin ihmisoikeuksia ja vähentää syrjintää ja vääryyttä. Eli jos on valkoisena suomalaisena sitä mieltä, että yhteiskunnan/valtion ei tule tehdä rasisminvastaista työtä, niin lyön miljoonan vetoa että on itse rasisti ja muu olisi hiustenhalkomista mihin Kryomanni viittasi
Yeah I donated specifically in hopes of helping ernest live off kbin
Migrating an account from an instance to another?
I know it's possible for Mastodon, so is this in the roadmap for kbin? Or could it be done already with other software?
Yes of course. We agree.
Oh I see. Yeah, there could be a feature (a browser addon would work too) that reads the webpage meta data before opening it, and pops a "Open in kbin/lemmy/whatever?" window.
What interface are you using now? I'm responding to this thread from kbin.social instance usin kbin webclient
Yeah, I see others pointed out lemmyverse.net . I think separation between Lemmy instances and other Fediverse (ActivityPub) instances is arbitrary and creates needless fragmentation. So yeah I'm gonna have to check out Lemmyverse but I meant the whole Fediverse.
Oh, ok. I thought it was because it's mentioned in kbin.pub
Alright I thought the alpha version was already in google play store, so that's why I wondered
Why is kbin android app not in F-droid?
Kbin is open source. Surely the android app should be as well?
I don't think you get my point. I'm not advocating to relicense kbin code or make it closed. Everyone will always be free to fork and make their own kbin-like client if they're unhappy with the original. I'm also not suggesting taking kbin off Fediverse.
Right now, I think only 1 person has complete power over the domain kbin.pub, and the git repository. So that is as centralized as it gets. Same thing with the kbin.social instance, but I'd like to keep administration of the kbin project sepatate from the kbin.social fediverse instance (both can live without the other). I'd like the current main kbin client project (the only?) to get proper administration and financing.
Bought him a coffee. See my other comment here though:

kbin is just a bin of code that everyone can toss into, there is no singular domain to own.
There is kbin.pub and the main branch git. Just because forks can continue working if the main kbin git gets messed up, compromised or whatever, it doesn't mean that the development wouldn't be in serious trouble in the real life. It would be far from smooth
Having a foundation/non-profit is easy and virtually free of fees. Small-time hobbyist sports clubs of like 10 people often have a nonprofit to manage the (small) finances of the group where I live. Kbin has potential to be a very big player in the post-reddit times, with millions of users. I don't know what ernest does for living but it wouldn't take much money to pay him full-time for Kbin development, but that would be the kind of expenses I was thinking (and later small-time marketing)
Kbin Foundation when?
When will there be a Kbin Foundation that:
- collects and handles money to help build Kbin (right now I don't see a single "donate" button)
- owns any property of Kbin (like domain and git), so that the board of the foundation can decide what's done with it if ernest kicks the bucket or goes insane
- has a board that can make decisions about Kbin to spread power from one person to many?
@ernest I don't even know how pinging works :)
I'll gladly become a donor when I see that Kbin will not be a one-guy-show for long, but a serious project that will outlive it's creator. If ernest is not actively planning to have this project live even without himself, then I bet it's not going to last.
Please comment any thoughts you have, and have a nice summer!
