I’m feeling a bit better. Starting today, I’ll be returning to work as much as possible. This week will likely be spent catching up on tasks, replying to emails, reading overdue comments, etc. I also need to work with Piotr on instance infrastructure. I’ll be more actively handling spam as well, but it’s clear that we need additional people for global instance moderation. I’ll prioritize this. I’d like to delegate instance administration as much as possible and fully focus on code. In short, there’s a lot of work ahead, but I aim to reach a point by the end of this month where I’m 100% focused on code development, and hopefully this time there won’t be any unpleasant surprises. The past few months have been overwhelming with a series of unfortunate events ;-)
I’m glad that you’re feeling somewhat better and are on the mend!
Bringing more people on board for moderation is definitely a good idea, as is delegating administration. I think it’s clear to everyone who keeps up with all your updates that the coding/development is where your heart lies :) Absolutely prioritise these things; reddit’s IPO is in a week and a half, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the fediverse, and /kbin, grow because of that.
I’m happy to put my name forward for helping out with moderation (as I’m sure plenty of other people will, too). You’ve made something special in /kbin, and helping keep it focused and spam-free through moderation feels like the least we could do to help out!
I have worked with loobkoob as a moderator on Reddit, discord, etc. and I just want to say they have the temperament and reliability anyone would want in a moderator.
I stumbled across this comment while browsing and felt the need to endorse haha
