The problem is that Kbin sucks as well. For example, /m/science lacks actual moderators and gets flooded with spam on the regular. And even where there are active moderators, moderation actions often do not get federated.

I was hoping these issues would get fixed soon, but here we are, three months after the Reddit apocalypse, and Kbin is still not a fully functional platform. For example, I filed bug #1102 fifteen days ago, and this has still not been resolved. And bug #570 has been open since early July.

If Kbin wants to become and stay relevant, it needs more hands on deck.

This is a known issue and needs to be fixed at code level.

I moderate the men magazine, and we get spammed with gay porn in the sidebar, which is often not labeled as NSFW. (I have nothing against gays or porn, but it is not appropriate for a serious discussion community.) I have tried to hide those sections thru the magazine CSS, but it does not seem to work.

Any help here? Or is this not possible at the magazine level?

Install KES and hide the random posts in the sidebar.

I use Mastodon for that.

@ernest, what is Kbin doing to resist such overreach by law enforcement?

How is m/men gross? We don't allow any misogyny or other bigotry.

Threadiverse for Kbin, Lemmy, and similar.

This was an issue very recently in the Netherlands, when emergency services referred to Twitter for storm Poly updates... I hope these all move to Mastodon.

I guess you're not familiar with what a magazine is on Kbin, or you're just pulling OP's leg.

[-] a-man-from-earth@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

For now, I just block people who spam like that. Curating my feed is necessary for my sanity.

Religion and the belief in an invisible god, for which there is no good evidence.
