@HarkMahlberg Curious what other platforms, if you don’t mind me asking?
@HarkMahlberg Curious what other platforms, if you don’t mind me asking?
@Maestro Really good to know!! Thanks for the heads up.
@stopthatgirl7 Agreed. I have been using Beehaw more and more as a “test”. But I am not sure where I will land in the end though.
@HarkMahlberg I did the same thing since I am not sure of the longevity of kbin.
@roguetrick I really like kbin and want it to succeed, but between the outages, spam, and errors it is really difficult to use.
I have accounts on beehaw, mastodon, and pixelfed. I am open to other suggestions, but once I find a “home” (on kbin or otherwise) I will delete the others.
@Gordon_Freeman As of 2019:
Well, all went a bit quiet. Partly because the Montreal-based company leading the way, Nexia Biotechnologies, a company spun out of McGill University, swiftly went bust and sold its two GM goats — Sugar and Spice — to the Canada Agriculture Museum in Ottawa, which in 2013 removed its genetically-engineered goats from display amid public pressure.
Quiet momentum continues, however, under Dr Randy Lewis of Utah State University and his team. Though he is unaware of the whereabouts of Sugar and Spice today, his lab looks after over twenty goats capable of producing silky milk.

@Arotrios Interestingly enough, I can see my kbin posts in Mastodon as https://mastodon.social/@[email protected], but it seems that those posts do not appear in my Mastodon timeline under the hashtags that I follow. For example, if I post something that includes #nasa, I do not see that post in Mastodon under #nasa. However, I do see it as a post under https://mastodon.social/@[email protected].
I guess I am still just learning how it all works.
@stopthatgirl7 This seems like quite the lift and shift. Moving to a new platform would definitely split their user based. I would also thin that any form of aggressive defederation would split their user base as well. From what I can tell, there are not many (if any) fediverse platforms that have the level of moderation tools they they are looking for.
Unfortunately, It just looks like they are in a tight spot. One the could make or break that community.
I have not noticed many spammers here on kbin. But, when I do, the way I handle it is:
When they do not return the grocery cart to the cart corral.
A save function would be great if implemented. NGL, I just send things I want to save to Google Keep.

@uphillbothways Couldn’t it be a staging ground, not just for lunar mining, but also asteroid mining?
doesn’t believe
A far cry from “knows”.
Reversing climate is just like sustainable energy. There will be no one magice cure all. We will have to diversify and deploy several different technologies and techniques.
So a permalink. Sounds like the menu item should say “Copy Permalink.” “Copy URL to Fediverse” makes it sound like if I click that link it gets exported, auto-posted, or sent to other fediverse instances automatically.
@GeekFTW Interesting. I have the following enabled and I still do not get notifications for Microblog post replies:
middle managers have been exposed as worthless, they force people back to the office.
Yep … butts in seats is the only thing they know, “Look at all this productivity every chair is occupied. Thank God for Friday pizza parties.”
@stopthatgirl7 Same. I poked around beehaw a bit, but I am not sure its is good fit for me. Think I will check out lemmy.world, they seem to be really communicative on mastodon during their upgrade process.
But that’s all I know about it. I am looking into mbin,too…but I really don’t much about it.
I have been spending most of my social media time on mastodon lately.
