    That escalated quickly.

    Java is a VERY dangerous programming language... sarcastic

    So, if I'm following correctly, Lemmy currently is experiencing a massive wave of bot registrations, and now about 800 thousand new registered accounts across several different instances are bots. What is kbin doing to prevent that, other than just being somewhat smaller and not picking up as much attention?

    @Varyag You can enable email verification and enable hcapthca. But admins do need to configure that.

    What is this this .m3u8 file that keeps downloading every time I open the kbin homepage on firefox?

    @Ohwatafool That would be considered a bug I think. Are you doing something special (clicking on some link?) when this happens?

    I have a Mastadon, AND a Kbin now. I'm trying to sign up for different Federated services and link 'em all together. I'm loving this new protocol so much. It's quiet...

    It feels similar to the early 2000's internet and I'm loving it.

    Decided I'm going to go ahead with my Kbin mobile app.

    Yeah I know i have a lot on the go, but I use Apollo daily, and want a solid Apollo like experience for Kbin.

    I'm willing to hand over the project to Kbin if they want, and would love to work closely with the developer on this if possible.

    Will be starting this next week, after my camping trip! It will be open source from the start, and contributors will be gladly welcomed!

    First test post... in the testing magazine.

    /kbin server update - or how the server didn't blow up ( kbin.social )

    Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted). I don't know how many are active because I don't monitor it, but once again, I greet all of you here :) In recent days, the traffic on the website has been overwhelming. It's definitely too much for the basic docker-compose setup,...

    Anybody have any idea what /f/inbox is? Trying to sort out why I'm getting a bunch of HTTP/405 response codes in my logs.

    melroy Admin ,

    @gme So as far as I know, that is part of the ActivityPub protocol. Servers are using this end-point to deliver their posts/data from their instance to your side using JSON content.

    It should always be 'POST' method requeests (not to be confused with Kbin "posts"). I'm talking about HTTP POST.

    melroy Admin ,

    @gme Yes this is part of the official activitypub protocol. So other instances are then calling this endpoint to add their data (eg. posts) to your server. The requests should be HTTP POST Methods. And the result you sent to them should be 200 OK.
