@AshDene We can only hope. Trump, if found guilty and after exhausting his appeals, should get the same consequences as the Rosenburgs.

@eternity_html I’m done with Reddit. Haven’t closed my account yet because there is a friend I’m still in contact with there. I don’t scroll, comment or post.Reddit sucks and there isn’t a reason to go back

@ernest Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. Kbin is great and I appreciate all of your hard work. Take the time you need, no one could have imagined how this instance would take off!

@realcaseyrollins Fair enough.

@CuddlyCassowary I checked the Apple store last week and even though the reviews all say the reddit app sucks it has an astoundingly rating now

@crossmr

@realcaseyrollins I’m sorry, what’s the problem? The guy is a fake candidate put up by Bannon and Flynn to try to siphon off votes from Biden. If the media is covering him as a dangerous crank then then that’s being generous.

@syntax Just based on this I’m blocking your instance. That’s my tip for you.

@Web_Rand Thank you for the link and for this question. My opinion - kbin-social should block the lemmy.ml and lemmygrad instances for the same reason that Mastodon Art is blocking us.

@Zeppo Hah! No doubt

@SimplePhysics @meldroc

@greenyenergy Public Service Announcement: If you’re interested, you can go to old reddit on your phone browser, log in, and view whatever you want.

@RemeJuan Apparently not. I wouldn’t install or use anything that smacks of Meta for this reason. Its why I left Reddit when Apollo shut down. Big nope for me.

@psychothumbs

@faltuuser Definitely time to grab the popcorn for this one. Hopefully Zuck and Elon damage their respective business to no end. If the jurisdiction of any litigation is California, Elon is going to have an uphill battle.

@wrath@kbin.social Defederate with any instance Meta has infected - including any instance at Mastodon who thinks this is a good idea. I left FB years ago because of this and their boosting of the alt-right

@RightHandOfIkaros admins are actively deleting posts that reference alternatives, including Kbin and Lemmy.

@TrinityTek @NotAPenguin

@xptiger wanted to say that the mod team is actively looking for alternatives but as I mentioned they feel that they need much higher functioning mod tools to be able to make the switch

@TrinityTek

@TrinityTek I feel very confident that it is not the mods that took your post down. Like I mentioned my post was taken down by Reddit admin, not the mods. The head mod at LGO has been checking out Lemmy and Kbin as potential alternatives. He is concerned about the lack of mod tools here because they get trolls from everywhere. You can check on the LGO wiki for their approach, but the mods feel like they are fucked once the third party apps end. Recommend you DM him on Reddit. Also, understanding mod tools is beyond my technical capability but the way we can help ourselves is to put the tools in place that will give the LGO mods confidence that we’re a viable alternative. They recognize that gun related subreddits are not in Spez’s plans and there is a community being served that vitally needs help.

@TrinityTek Hi - its not the mods at r/liberalgunowners who removed your post. I’ve been in touch with the mod there and when I made a similar post about Kbin last week it was removed by the Reddit admins, not the sub mods. They wanted to let me know it wasn’t them. Spez has been doing all sorts of shit like that, Its one big reason why I’m done with Spezzit. Post in the m/liberalgunowners magazine here on Kbin-social.

@Phoeniqz If Reddit is only announcing the hack now then that is very likely going to be a legal problem in a number of US jurisdictions, not to mention EU and others.
