@Seraph According to https://status.lemm.ee the federation is not receiving data on real time from any kbin or mbin instance. I am following kbinmeta there and the most recent post is from three days ago. Fedia and kbin.run (both mbin) looks like two weeks ago is the earliest.
Edit: Looks like ot took about 21 hours for a kbin post to hit lemm.ee. No comments
..just post. So a 21 one hour delay so far.
@stopthatgirl7 Same. I poked around beehaw a bit, but I am not sure its is good fit for me. Think I will check out lemmy.world, they seem to be really communicative on mastodon during their upgrade process.
But that's all I know about it. I am looking into mbin,too...but I really don't much about it.
I have been spending most of my social media time on mastodon lately.
@HarkMahlberg Curious what other platforms, if you don't mind me asking?
@stopthatgirl7 Agreed. I have been using Beehaw more and more as a "test". But I am not sure where I will land in the end though.
@HarkMahlberg I did the same thing since I am not sure of the longevity of kbin.
@roguetrick I really like kbin and want it to succeed, but between the outages, spam, and errors it is really difficult to use.
I have accounts on beehaw, mastodon, and pixelfed. I am open to other suggestions, but once I find a "home" (on kbin or otherwise) I will delete the others.
No matter which October vibes you’re here for — the cozy ones or the creepy ones — we’ve got plenty of new manga picks for you!

Mystery Of The Ancient Bear Bones In The Aleutian Islands, Alaska
Scientists are puzzled by 5,000-year-old bear bones found on the Unalaska and Amaknak Islands in the Aleutians, Alaska. The ancient bones have been a decades-old mystery due to the fact that bears have never lived on those islands.

The world’s wildlife are facing a barrage of threats caused by climate change, from the loss of suitable habitat to dwindling food supplies. As a result, endangered species across the U.S. are edging closer to extinction at alarming rates—and if they disappear, critical genetic information could vanish with them.
The discovery shows the popularity of the ancient ruler hundreds of years after his death.
Cosmic Impact 12,800 Years Ago Forced Hunter-Gatherers In The Levant To Adopt Agricultural Practices
Agriculture in Syria started with a bang 12,800 years ago as a fragmented comet slammed into the Earth's atmosphere. The explosion and subsequent environmental changes forced hunter-gatherers in the prehistoric settlement of Abu Hureyra to adopt agricultural practices to boost their chances for surv...
To produce plant-based cheeses that feel and taste like dairy cheese, scientists have their sights set on fermentation. In a new research result, University of Copenhagen scientists demonstrate the potential of fermentation for producing climate-friendly cheeses that people want to eat.

These Curious Burials Could Challenge Historians’ Ideas About Anglo-Saxon Gender
There are a significant number of Anglo-Saxon burials where the estimated anatomical sex of the skeleton does not align with the gender implied by the items they were buried with.

Some believe it’s an extraterrestrial spacecraft. NASA says it’s probably just space junk. Here are the facts.
The newly identified titanosaur, Garumbatitan morellensis, roamed what is now Spain around 122 million years ago. The unusual shape of some of its bones could hold clues about the evolutionary history of a unique group of sauropods.

Rare 16th c. globe restored and on display
A rare 16th century globe has been restored and put on display at the Museo Galileo in Florence. The terrestrial globe was made by Antwerp cartographer Cornelis De Jode in 1594. Most of his surviving oeuvre is a world atlas, the Speculum Orbis Terrae, he published in 1593.
@ShaunaTheDead You never know with what we are finding today, but it is possible we wouldn't even understand it if it was:

@Gordon_Freeman As of 2019:
Well, all went a bit quiet. Partly because the Montreal-based company leading the way, Nexia Biotechnologies, a company spun out of McGill University, swiftly went bust and sold its two GM goats — Sugar and Spice — to the Canada Agriculture Museum in Ottawa, which in 2013 removed its genetically-engineered goats from display amid public pressure.
Quiet momentum continues, however, under Dr Randy Lewis of Utah State University and his team. Though he is unaware of the whereabouts of Sugar and Spice today, his lab looks after over twenty goats capable of producing silky milk.

@EdenRester I try to set a reading schedule. Nothing prolific, just some time where I can sit down uninterrupted and read. It is usually later in the evening, after the day has calmed down a bit. Sometimes in that time box, I knock out several chapters of a book. Other times, I can barely get through a few pages.
@Arotrios Thank you. That is a great explanation.
@Arotrios Interestingly enough, I can see my kbin posts in Mastodon as https://mastodon.social/@[email protected], but it seems that those posts do not appear in my Mastodon timeline under the hashtags that I follow. For example, if I post something that includes #nasa, I do not see that post in Mastodon under #nasa. However, I do see it as a post under https://mastodon.social/@[email protected].
I guess I am still just learning how it all works.
@sentient_loom #kbin for the win!
@roldyclark @End0fLine Well, if you are interested in the US gov't:
RSS is good place to start: https://www.usda.gov/rss/latest-releases.xml
@stopthatgirl7 This seems like quite the lift and shift. Moving to a new platform would definitely split their user based. I would also thin that any form of aggressive defederation would split their user base as well. From what I can tell, there are not many (if any) fediverse platforms that have the level of moderation tools they they are looking for.
Unfortunately, It just looks like they are in a tight spot. One the could make or break that community.
I have not noticed many spammers here on kbin. But, when I do, the way I handle it is:
- Reduce/Report.
- Do I see the same user posting spam, block user.
- Does it seem to come from the same domain, block domain.
When relaying inconvenient news or the need to complete annoying tasks, I like the preface with it "Good news, everyone."
