It also helps to use Piefed and create custom feeds for different interests, e.g. https://piefed.social/f/blaze_android or https://piefed.social/f/blaze_privacy
Wow, piefed is looking better every day
Its fun!
I wish it had a dedicated Mobile app. Or a PWA (Progressive Web-App)
It has a pwa 😊
Summit and Mlem support Piefed
Fair, I only use Voyager anyway
If you mean something that could access all of its features, the reason that isn't happening yet is because the back-end API is still very minimal. But they're working on it, and the progress so far is amazing!! 😍
is still very minimal.
I wouldn't call it minimal, most of the features are available
Also on PieFed.social all new accounts automatically join 4 positive communities 😇
Is this one negative enough for you? 😅
Haven't been around in awhile, is mbin officially dead or is it still being actively developed just without much use?
Kbin is dead. Hopefully Ernst is himself not physically dead, but has stopped contributing. It was quite the fiasco as Kbin.social had to be defederated from since it was sitting un-administered and thus being used to spread spam across the entire Threadiverse.
Kbin's fork Mbin is still going strong, though with fewer users as time passes. There is even an app for it now: Interstellar.
It serves a very niche area though, where you want to interact with both the microblogging style Mastodon on the Fediverse and also Lemmy+PieFed on the Threadiverse (with newer additions being added e.g. nodeBB and flarum) using the same account rather than dedicated ones for each platform. Personally I feel like the UI is too geared towards the former and ignores what is much more commonly observed in the letter. Plus it follows Ernst's trends to rename every little thing where e.g. downvotes are "reduces", except it's more complicated than that bc downvotes themselves still exist - except they don't, in that they don't affect the sorting (or maybe that was the reduces?) - plus they are now publicly visible, except again they are not (actually "boosts" are, reduces are not, and I forget whether they are or not for up and downvotes).
Even at its peak it never topped 1k monthly active users (according to this site), so compared to Lemmy's ~35k the ~0.7k users of Mbin are practically unnoticeable.
PieFed is the new hot thing, with many features that Lemmy lacks, and some even that Reddit itself does not have. It is still being polished but its pace of development is extremely fast! 😁
Mbin is still going strong. We're just not big.
I was just thinking to myself it's been so good around here, YPTB has barely had any activity for weeks.
I've had a couple cases I could've presented there, but it just wasn't worth it to me to take the time to gather the evidence and write out my case. There's good reason I'm neither a lawyer, nor a politician.
Have you not blocked the negative instances? Most of what I see are positive posts, or news articles.
I haven’t noticed this. And I browse all. If you’re encountering that much toxicity there may be a common ingredient…

Have you not seen the posts about Valve's new Steam hardware? Excitement everywhere!
I can't even see downvotes
Hobbyist*
No, they’re the most hobbyest of all the posts!
Maybe I'll create a community too, for what I don't know yet.
UPDATE: maybe like a consultancy group for making minimalist website, like the ones you see on Neocities
Bots and bootlickers. Bots and bootlickers everywhere!
It's also became way too fucking political
