I want to like Kbin. I really do. But it's just not the same. There are no apps. The format is not reader-friendly. Usability is way low.
I've been trying for a month and I just can't get into it the way that I got into Reddit.
What do we need in order to make Kbin more ... friendly? Do we need developers? Moderators? More content? What? I'm legit serious here.
Is there already a discussion about all of these issues?
I hate Reddit. I joined /r/place and supported the 3rd party apps memorial that is up there. And that's probably about it for me. I confess that I may have checked the home page a few times over the past month but every time...I remember why I hate it so much. It's full of spez spit all over the place.
On Slashdot, folks from the /r/canning subreddit shared their experience about being booted and locked out. Just terrible, terrible stuff from an evil overlord determined to destroy anything that resembles "good".
And there's a lot of enshittification going on today.
- Climate Change - jfc have you seen the boiling lakes?
- Work - bosses everywhere are legit going nuts on employees now
- Movies - Disney, HBO, Netflix, Paramount just wholesale murdering good movies and shows. Leaving only shitty ones up.
- Politicians - I mean...just look. It's shit.
- Economy - Income - shit. Expenses - oh shit.
- Food - Ukraine - shit. Crop yields are down - oh shit.
- Health Care - Pharma companies turning life into shit.
It's all going to shit. What are we going to do?
Two decent choices ...
Cloudflare - honestly probably the best. No, you will not save money. But you get the single best DNS / Cloud Firewall combination in the world.
Enom - Again, not about saving money. The UI is dated ... but the sub account options works well for the "family and friends" thing so that you are not on the hook for renewing THEIR crap. You can keep your stuff your stuff and their stuff their stuff.
