I'm a subreddit moderator, and we're looking to potentially move our community to kbin. Right now, there are a few features we feel are missing for us to ensure a successful migration. Some of these would be nice to have, while others we feel are necessary before we can move over.

Which of these features are planned to be added in the near future (or are already things that we just missed):

Images

  • Two auto image preview settings for threads: one for when you're scrolling through threads and one when you're on the page of a single thread
  • Smaller auto image previews (or a setting for auto image preview size)
  • Consistently square magazine icons
  • Images not being stretched or squashed
  • File uploading actually working

Moderation

  • Moderators having access to the magazine panel
  • Moderator permissions
  • Distinguishing posts/comments

Other

  • Post flairs or something like them
  • Search within a magazine

Thanks!

So I can't speak for moderation tools. The search question intrigues me because there is a search feature but I can't tell if it has any sort of filter support.

As for the image issues. I just came across stylus and https://github.com/aclist/kbin-css/ - the user experience is worlds better with it installed. And there are tweaks for a lot of the image issues and other quirks of the main theme.

That being said, the ability to install these styles should be streamlined into the server I think. External extensions come and go - which would leave anyone using them dead in the water.
