Today, we managed to update the main instance. Everything should slowly return to normal. Now it's time for things that will be less visible but no less important. Currently, the priority will be interactions with other instances - limiting spam, improving communication in the fediverse (including moderation) in order not to add extra work for other admins. Following that, the release will come along with credits for specific features developed by contributors.
After that, I'll return to my roadmap. I've mentioned many times that kbin was a prototype - I focused more on the experience rather than technical solutions. It will be a time for code refactoring, query optimization, eliminating weak points, which will also help optimize the project's maintenance costs, ensuring its long-term development
Following that, there will be a lot of new features and integrations, about which I will write soon.
I looked through the codeberg commits and this is what I could gather:
Threads about the same article in multiple magazines are grouped together
Users can apply to be mods
Abandoned magazines can be taken over
Global/instance moderators
Accounts can be temporarily suspended
Magazine deletion
Comment textbox is at the top by default and can be moved
Magazine CSS can be disabled
Edited posts and comments are marked like on Reddit
API
Blocked magazines are filtered out of the dropdown when creating a new thread
Microblog posts can be pinned
Maximum character limits are displayed
Show Password button
The 'boost' text is colored when active
Account deletion button is more clear and obvious
Federation page listing defederated instances
Removed the "how to use the editor" button as it wasn't doing anything
Users can request their account activation email be resent
Users can customize the site's CSS in their settings
New option to disable avatars in comments
Improved email styling
Robots.txt (policy for search engine crawlers and chatgpt)
Logged out users cannot initiate federation with new users and magazines anymore
2FA
Clearer wording for the direct link copy options
edit: New "open original url" option to directly open the url in a new tab rather than just copying the link
new: Optional Turbo mode, which changes the site so it has the speed of a single-page web application
Awesome, thank you so much!
