A three panel meme of someone riding a bike.
- First panel: Someone riding on a bike. “Reddit is imploding, quick let’s get on Lemmy”
- Second panel: The bike starts to tip over on its own. “Oh shit there’s too many of us, we’re being defederated?”
- Third panel: They’ve fallen on the ground by the bike, holding their knee in pain. “Fucking Beehaw”
sweats in kbin
I don’t think you have anything to worry about; Kbin hasn’t really been a huge vector (afaik) for spam/harassment. It’s just those two instances in particular which were ballooning and creating a moderation challenge but all the admins are in conversation about pressing for better tools and refederating come that day
makes sense. kbin actually got quite a lot of users, 30k over these past few days. I think it’s half the amount lemmy got? though kbin users might be a bit more reserved and polite haha. we were also offline the first few days which I think also helped. trolls like lemmy better I guess.
@Otome-chan@kbin.social yeah I’ve noticed that too, the trolls don’t seem to be on kbin - kbin feels fresher and nicer in a way. Ernest has been doing a great job with this site
@kalanggam @polaroid I’m merely watching this from afar but based on what I’ve read I’d emphasize the part about wanting better moderation tools and beehaw wanting to refederate once tools are better.
No worries. When asked if they’d defed kbin they simply answered “I don’t even know you” lol
That means we’re not causing anyone problems, good job team!
To be clear there are problematic users on nearly every instance. I’ve had to moderate quite a few kbin users, but it’s not standing out from the pack as a particularly problematic place as of this moment.
Oh yeah I’m sure no instance will have a perfect track record, the moderation is appreciated
Probably because kbin federation has been open just for couple of days, due to the Cloudflare protection
