I still like posting here.

The spam’s a bit much at times and it goes down for days a stretch but I didn’t find any instance during this latest outage even worth considering jumping ship to.

When .social is up, that’s wha’sup.

      kbin doesn’t accept contributions. It is a one person project despit appearing to be community driven.

      I don’t know what is true but that is a concerning accusation.

        The project definitely accepts contributions, the mbin devs have contributed to kbin before and a few weeks ago a minor code change was committed and merged by someone other than ernest.

        As I understand it, the issue is that people with merge permissions other than ernest are only allowed to merge their own pull requests, not those of third parties, which require a review from ernest.
        (At least that’s what I’ve seen explained before, though I haven’t seen any proof of it so I don’t fully know if it’s real.)

        This means a majority of contributors can’t get their pull requests merged when ernest is gone. Which is why they went and made mbin when he was gone for months last time.
