Hi there! I’ve been trying to improve the situation for the past few hours. I managed to disable CF Protection, and as you can see, I’m gradually allowing traffic from the fediverse. There may still be delays in deliveries and posts for some time. If anything is particularly troublesome, please let me know through the contact form. Sorry for the temporary blackouts. New possibilities have emerged, which I’d like to discuss with you soon. Now I need a few hours for a nap, shower, and I have to grab something to eat because I can’t survive on bananas only :P
And look at this!

Just please be understanding towards the new admins. This is still a prototype, and what we’re doing here is meant to yield results in the future. I’m doing everything I can to get back to patching critical things in the code as quickly as possible. Have fun! :)
Oooh and You can send me your domain name ideas via pm.

My intuition is that Kbin shouldn’t be responsible for running more instances than necessary - ideally, the running, administration, and mainstainance of instances should be left to other people (like Fedia.io). Developing Kbin while running kbin.social (and the polish instances) seems to me to be enough work already. :)
I get that it’s a lot of pressure on kbin.social right now, but in the long term I think having only one English language kbin-run instance makes the most sense.
Agreed - ideally many people should be able to run instances, to take the pressure off the devs. I mean I’m working on a piece of fedi server software and I would hate to have to spend most of my time on admin business rather than dev work :P
