Thank you for your work. I was really afraid this would happen when I heard the project was not open-source. The app was really great (especially for a single person in such a short time + no API at the time). It’s a bit annoying to use kbin without an app, but I believe we are not too far from a functional app since the API will be released soon 🤞.

No blame for Harriette of course, she has her reasons and owe nothing to us. Hope she is (or will be) fine.

We are in the same boat about microblogging. Still using a beta version of Artemis until kbin.social is supported with the later versions. It’s very nice to have access to both threads and microblogging within a single platform.

When the Reddit migration happened, I chose kbin over lemmy because I could centralize everything into a single app, as I expected to abandon Twitter at some point (and it finally happened 2 weeks ago).

The way I see microblogging is just like Twitter. I follow people like I did on Twitter, and I can also see posts from my favorite magazines (which is nice when you start, since it is what brings most of the microblogging content until you follow enough people). I use it through kbin website, eagerly waiting for its support on Artemis :).

My microblogging experience is no where close to what I had on Twitter, but I cannot expect to catch up what I built in ~12 years of Twitter in just a few weeks.But I am pretty sure that with proper support in Artemis, and a good year building a relevant list of folks, I can get to a nice place replacing efficiently what I got from Twitter :).

Thanks 👍

Can you tell me if microblogging is supported yet in the last version? (cannot try without creating an account, but I don’t want to migrate everything to a new account on artemis.camp atm).

It looks great! Can’t wait to give it a try :). Thanks for the information, it’s good news :).

That would be perfect, I guess it’s worth to wait for the official API release and see if microblogging is part of it :).

Yes that’s my plan, but if it’s coming soon in Artemis, I rather wait instead of migrating all my stuff in a week.

Currently testing the app and it’s really awesome (and there is so many updates day after day :)). Thanks a lot for your hard work :).

I noticed that you mentioned microblogging in the FAQ, is it already available and I am missing how to access it?
