Periodic Kbin Updates (kbin.social)

Is there any chance that we can get a weekly/biweekly, or periodic, update on what is new with kbin? @ernest has done a couple in the past. I doubt I would be the only one interested in hearing what is new or what is coming down the pipe more on a regular basis.

I'm aware that I can look at the codeberg and see what is being worked on, but I'm not quite as dev saavy as a lot of you are and really appreciate some plain spoken explainers sometimes.

If not, that's cool too. I just thought it might help keep people involved and retain users if we could see a list of exciting new additions, updates, and things to look forward to.

Hey, that's the plan. After the first release, the status update will probably be every two weeks. Currently, I'm struggling with the preparation of the release, it's taking up a lot of my time because I have many changes to integrate. On top of that, I've been going through a tough period in my personal life, but I've overcome it and starting from Monday, I'll be giving it my 100%. Contributors continue to be active, and their assistance is invaluable to me. To make matters worse, I have to deal with waves of spam that have recently surfaced on kbin.social, which you've probably noticed. Stay tuned ;)

Sorry to hear you're having a rough go of it, but glad you're on the other side of it now. <3

Also, thanks for the reply! Would this be something you could delegate out to someone? I understand you have a lot on your plate.

Currently, all I need is a bit more time ;) I'm gradually granting additional permissions and sharing responsibility with contributors. We still need to establish a some policy. If it speeds up work on /kbin, I'm okay with that. They are great and experienced developers. However, it's important to remember that they all do this in their free time.
