Hey, once again, I welcome the newcomers. It’s great to see new faces here :) It seems that we’ve managed to resolve the server issue. Unfortunately, I had to temporarily disable certain features, such as content auto-refresh. It will be restored at the beginning of next week after the infrastructure change, so you’ll get to experience kbin in its full glory then :) Currently, I’m working on a few critical things that I want to finish by Monday:
- Infrastructure improvement, optimization related to high traffic
- Admin guide - creating a new instance
- Fixes in notifications for post replies
- Attend to the new mod reports
- As soon as possible, I also want to get back to Codeberg Issues, private messages etc - there are many new topics there. Thanks to everyone for the that!
Some time ago I had an issue with bots, so registration process it might not be done perfectly. If the emial didn’t reach or wasn’t received in time, after a while and additional verification, the account will be manually activated.
If something important happens, please email me through the contact form - it’s the fastest way to reach me. Now I’ll get back to my tasks, and I wish you a great time exploring the fediverse :)
At some point, the registration will also be temporarily disabled. Nevertheless, we are still running on a budget VPS.
Have a great weekend!

Well said, the dream really is for people to start hosting their own instances instead of everyone just coming here.
Also, as the number of federated instances increases isn’t it going to cause exponentially more overall traffic since every instance will have to start pinging others in order to populate the landing page, it’s gonna be quite a web with many requests instead of just one as it’d be on reddit or other centralized sites?
