/kbin contribution and information for instance owners
ernest@kbin.social to /kbin meta@kbin.social – 176 points – The search form has been fixed (if you were experiencing this issue). This time, the Docker recreate may take a bit longer. Moving forward, when making changes, I will create pull requests like everyone else and ask for your review. Sorry for the inconvenience. Soon, the first tagged release will also be available. It's time to start doing things the right way.
"#kbin:matrix.org" - It's the best place to get information or assistance regarding kbin instance administration.

The kbin.social instance may experience intermittent interruptions or temporary slowdowns over the next few days. We want to test certain things that are only visible at a larger scale. This will benefit all other instances as all findings will be thoroughly described and shared.
Tomorrow, I will formally hand over the server's maintenance, so the upcoming days and weeks will focus on stabilization. Until now, the experience of kbin from an administrator's perspective could be quite frustrating.
Stay tuned
Cool! Just to clarify, are you handing the kbin.social instance itself off to someone else, or only the server hosting/maintenance aspects of it?
I suspect also I speak for many when I say you've done a stellar job so far of responding to an unpredictable explosive increase in users. Thank you!
I think he means he's switching server hosts. not necessarily handing off administration of the instance.
Yes, he's been focusing on performance and stability and almost nothing on code, he will hand over that responsibility so he can focus on code
I imagine if he brought on another individual who'd be doing moderating/adminning he'd say who it was lol.
