Here are mine! A handful of things come to mind right away, but there are plenty more:

⭐ The admin @ernest is an incredibly hardworking, kind, supportive, and an all-around good person. This is my tip top most favorite thing because good leadership and communication is essential to a good and thriving community. Ernest is a star!

⭐ The ability to edit titles!!! This is sooo convenient!

⭐ The ability to customize mags with CSS! I could spend hours doing this, it's so fun! I don't know any other social media site that allows you that level of freedom of customization. It really makes it feel more personal. All my mags are decked out :3

⭐ I enjoy making scripts/styles for kbin. kbin is the reason I began learning JS, HTML, and CSS. I am so happy I started learning, and it's all thanks to kbin.

⭐Posts and conversations here are much more GENUINE. It feels like I am interacting with real people, with the goal of socializing just for the sake of socializing, which I don't get elsewhere. Everywhere else it's a competition to say the wittiest thing and get the most likes/upvotes.

⭐ No malicious, tricky, over-calculated algorithm. It's very straight-forward and honest here. I love seeing a mix of upvoted/downvoted comments in comment sections too, rather than just top upvoted, because it makes me feel more apart of the conversation with everyone. Your contributions and thoughts won't get drowned out by upvoted witty remarks, that is truly unique to kbin (and maybe elsewhere on the fediverse?).

⭐ kbin gives me the urge to contribute, interact, and create because our contributions have actual impact. Can't say the same for other sites. Everywhere else is lurk only.

⭐ Tightknit but welcoming. kbin is small enough that I run into familiar people all the time, and I recognize usernames everywhere.

⭐ Authenticity. kbin is authentic and real. It's not pushing a product, not manipulating what you see, not building an ad profile. It is what a forum should be.

That only scratches the surface! How about you guys? If you guys share the same favorite things as me, I would love to hear your thoughts on why.

Hello fellow Kbiners what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it?

TBPO's speaks about global geopolitical issues, Current Affairs, defense news and breaking news from India China Pakistan Bangladesh Russia & America

For me, it's definitely Pricefield from Life is strange. They would form a really cute couple and i was frustrated to not seeing it in the game.

Maybe December? So we all take money out of banks, at least current month salary, and spend cash only. I think that is something that shouldn't be hard to do and it would show if we, the people, have any power left to make positive changes for the future or we can just surrender and eat bugs.

I've never had an SO. :(

First one that comes to my mind is having to travel with an NPC and our walk/run speeds don't match.

I dislike the idea of clicking a link in a Kbin app, which opens the link separately in a browser app, then closing the tab, then closing the browser app, then going back to the Kbin app.

I know it's different, but Reddit's Relay had such a function.

Hi friends, I have a question for you out there. What is it like to drive an awesomely fast sports car. Like a Porsche or Ferrari or Lamborghini? My question is more about the accelerator pedal. Is it more sensitive? Or does it depress a further distance than your typical Ford or Buick would? How do you control the speed around town if the machine is built to go so much faster so much more quickly than your average daily driver?

Thanks for indulging me.

Kbin seems to have many open source and programming experts. And probably many experts in A.I. . I am curious about learning to use and develop (train?) an open source A.I. as a learning exercise.

I am pretty technically savvy, but depending on your definition, probably not a programmer. I've built my own PCs several times, I worked in SQL and studied a couple object oriented programming languages in school for a short time. Also limited Visual Basic experience years ago.

I know I could just play around with ChatGPT or whatever other tools exist but I want to delve more deeply.

I'll start: The Red Hot Chili Peppers are three years older than Guns N' Roses.

Personally:
-The bicycle curse. Every bicyle i used had to go to the repairer at least once, even if i borrow it to someone and even when i try to be careful.
-The schedule curse. My agenda is either empty, either full of events i want to go and that are happening the same day.
-The vacations curse. The weather of the place where i'd like to pass my vacations is always sunny, except the days of my actual vacations at the said place.

How do I block a domain? In the "Settings" page there's "blocked" and in there is "domain" but it's "Empty" - how do I add a domain to block?

I found a flight that has a connection in Japan that's cheaper than a direct flight to Japan. Is it legal to take that cheaper flight and leave the airport at the layover location as our final destination? Will they prevent us from taking the return flight?

What are good web hosting services for a social community platform? should I use AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or Something else? (Needs to be budget friendly)
