It is. They've temporarily disabled invite codes.

I'm in the same boat. Would be good to have the ability to have a single identity that works across the fediverse. As a first step if you have your own domain anyway, it'd be cool to alias that to different underlying Mastodon/Kbin/Pixelfed/etc. accounts. It's possible to some small extend using the "Webfinger" protocol: https://philna.sh/blog/2022/11/23/alias-your-mastodon-username-to-your-own-domain-with-jekyll/
At least they don't donate their time and effort to Reddit anymore.
Honestly don't know, but is spez also following Twitter in letting go of many employees? A lot of the backlash to Twitter came from that. He's been saying that they aren't profitable and their cost per API call for third party apps implies that they are running a pretty inefficient ship...
You need a Codeberg account and can then translate right on https://translate.codeberg.org/projects/kbin/kbin/.
However, Romanian hasn't yet been added as a language to translate, too, and the "Start new translation" button is disabled. Maybe @ernest first needs to either add that language manually or can enable that button for everyone.
Thanks for the write-up. I've been using Mastodon quite a bit the last few months, and I'm curious about how kbin interoperates with that with from a user perspective.
What happens if you you follow a kbin user from Mastodon? Do you see just their "posts" or also their replies to threads? Do you see when they post an article? Can a kbin user follow a Mastodon user?
How do hashtags interact between the two systems?
What happens if you follow a kbin magazine from Mastodon? I noticed that they appear with a "Group" tag on Mastodon if searching for that "user".
(Edit: I could navigate to this post from Mastodon and reply to it, but it didn't show up here yet. But maybe that's due to the temporarily broken federation.)
I launched a big 2.0 update to my album-focused music player Longplay just yesterday. I wrote an announcement post and there's also a detailed overview on MacStories. Feedback and questions are very welcome!
