  • @Chozo I wonder if this bodes well for Kbin/Lemmy? Arguably their model is more about content than social relationships.

    Wow, just wow. The planet is breaking.

    Antarctic sea ice extent. There was actually a net decrease in ice extent day over day, and it's mid-winter there, peak freeze season.

  • Russia is concentrating "more than 100,000 personnel, more than 900 tanks, more than 555 artillery systems, 370 MLRS" in the Lyman-Kupiansk direction, according to Serhii Cherevatyi, spokesperson for Ukraineโ€™s Eastern Military Command.

    Cherevatyi said on television on July 17 that Ukrainian soldiers are currently holding the defense.

    Kupiansk was liberated in Ukraine's surprise counteroffensive in Kharkiv Oblast in September 2022. Lyman, in Donetsk Oblast, was liberated just weeks later. https://kyivindependent.com/military-4/

    For the ones I haven't got around to it redirects you to kbin.social homepage

    It could be broken down to regions too. As more national or regional kbin instances emerge I'll replace the existing feddit/other sites.

    I did a bit of testing with Pingdom and it seems to work

    In the process I noticed that [New Z

  • Reminds me of this essay https://nexus.blacksky.network/zine/00000001/confederal-protocols I think Nostr get's much of that right.

    Kbin.social passes 30k Monthly Active Users

    It's still tiny numbers in the scheme of things, but also quite a big number for a site that had 30 users this time last month.
