Hi all,

I’m a developer that has an interest in online communities, fediverse software and, at a point in the very recent past, consuming and creating a lot of Reddit content. Discontented with regards to the direction Reddit has taken, I’ve taken it upon myself to start a small, general-purpose instance to give back to the /kbin community and help reduce load. The instance is hosted on a secure, well-equipped dedicated server and should support a large influx of users and communities. I will be regularly administrating it (and may even seek fellow admins); but ideally, administration will be hands-off and moderators will take onus for their magazines.

Come check us out at kbin.cafe. I’ll be happy to answer any lingering questions in this thread.

Please be sure to report any issues by messaging me or emailing us at the address found in the linked post. Currently some avatars for some federated magazines are missing, but this will be resolved soon.

Thanks for reading!

    Welcome to the ever growing list of instances! Definitely let us know if you need help in the matrix chat, there are usually a few of us in there actively at any given time.

    I need to do an introduction post of my instance at some point as well. This one is me: https://fedidb.org/network/instance/fediverse.boo

    I manually curate a news magazine and then I have several dedicated news outlet magazines that get automatically populated with content so people can subscribe to what news sources they want to get mixed into their subscriptions.

    Anyways! Welcome again, we hope you enjoy your stay
