I have been on and off lemmy lately, kbin has been shutdown?!!!
The head dev just kinda peaces out from time to time. Supposedly, he's got a lot going on in his personal life, and he probably really does, but he's also unwilling to hand over the reins or communicate or share, so the main instance just kinda died.
I remember he already had some beef with mbin so I'm unfortunately not too surprised by that. He wanted to stay in control but could not manage it alone either so ultimately it was an inevitable outcome.
