What do you NOT want to see replicated on kbin?
  • @sincle354

    Oh, absolutely! I'm from an authoritarian third-world country and have personally experienced racism. I am well aware of the actions and ongoing activities of the CCP. I'm perfectly fine with people roasting the CCP or discussing China's politics in relevant threads. However, racism is where I take issue.

    On Reddit, every thread about the things happening in China (or outside of China but related to Chinese people) turns into Sinophobia. Even a thread about floating road over water turns into sinophobia(I'm not sure if I'm using the word correctly lol). Ridiculous don't you think?

    So, I'm just saying that it would be nice if we don't have that here but that’s highly unlikely since the whole world is against China and Russia right now. And like you said, an average person is pretty racist and cannot separate between CCP and the Chinese people (even the ones who are born outside of China).

    I just want to see to see less racism in the world.

    Sorry if my thoughts are all over. I find it challenging to express myself clearly, and it's not something I'm accustomed to. English being my second language doesn't help.

  • The kbin/lemmy app is coming along. Here´s a little preview of the upcoming beta! Heavy inspiration from Apollo. The app will be available for both iOS and Android.

    One thing I hated about Apollo was swiping gestures. I don’t use them and they get in the way so many times. Sometimes, I didn’t even know that I upvoted/downvoted a post unknowingly! I can’t disable it coz I’m a freeloade so I have no complaints.

    I just want to suggest that it would be nice if you give users an option to disable the gestures if the app has them.

  • Sinophobia and racism against Chinese people. Yeah I know sinophobia means exactly that, but I wanted to mention it again because I feel like it.

    Every single thread about China(non-political) turns into “China bad” and it’s so freaking annoying to see.

  • I think that it is a good thing that Kbin got "locked down" behind CloudFlare and unfederated as we settle in.
  • From this and other posts I’ve seen on Kbin, I get the feeling that, a lot of people here(coz I’ve only seen these kinds of posts on kbin) don’t want decentralization deep down. They just wan a “safe corner” and take other federated communities as enemies. Why does it gotta be like that? Why can’t we just grow together?
