  • I hope Ernest gets well soon and can pass through all of these stuff, but I must add one point to this:

    And finally, I really suggest getting some more admins for the instance.

    And, as important as this, letting more people help with Kbin development.

    It’s impossible to maintain the code and develop new features, while dealing with all his personal life problems (which of course are a priority) and maintaining the instance all at once and almost alone.

    Why not getting some help? I know that Ernest already said he has a problem trusting people, but come on, it’s visible that this approach is not working and it’s not benefiting anyone.












  • I had the same thoughts when my dentist suggested it, but fortunately nowadays we have more choices for doing it.

    I don’t know where you live and how much you can expend in it, but I’ve decided to use these removable invisible aligners (like Invisalign) and had no regrets. They’re faster to do their job, more trustable to get the alignment you need and, well, they’re not too visible as regular braces.

    As other people said, correcting your teeth is something you will enjoy for the rest of your life. So, if you can afford invisible aligners and can follow their instructions (like using them for 20h per day, regularly brushing your teeth etc), I totally recommend going this way.

    Besides what method you’ll choose, remember that everyone of them is temporary and you’ll be really happy with the results in the near future. I get the concern about what other people will think, but you should remember you’re doing something for you and to feel happier with yourself! :)



  • Kind of confused by wanting handwriting recognition while not using a pen? Are you writing with your finger?

    Hahahaha you have a good point and I’m sorry I didn’t explained that before! For now, yes, I’m writing with my finger!

    I’m taking a look to see if I’ll get used to taking notes and planning my day with my tablet before expending money in a pen that I’d only use for this.

    Also, thanks for the recommendation! I tried Good Notes but I think the handwriting recognition is a paid feature. I will take a look if there’s a trial!





  • That makes sense!

    For my basic knowledge working side by side with a lot of devs, I totally agree with the way Ernest thinks. It’s essential for a product that’s growing up to have a solid core that will not need to be rewrote in the near future.

    But also, as an user, I keep wishing we could see more features, like the API for mobile apps.

    I mean, besides what Ernest and Melroy thinks that’s the right way, there’s also what the users need, what the users want and what the project needs to escalate (new features vs core rewriting). And probably there’s not a right answer for that.






  • Are there any plans for the feed to always show new posts that you haven’t seen yet, just like the reddit feed?

    I mean, every time I open the “hot” section, for example, I see the same posts that are trending, even when I’ve already seen them before. It’d be nice to be able to see only content I didn’t saw yet, so people will be always receiving new content and raising their interest and engagement :)

    EDIT: I’m not complaining about the experience, just making a suggestion and I wanna thank you (as always) for your awesome work with /kbin! It’s for sure my favorite social network!
