kbin Cafe is a decentralized platform for content aggregation and microblogging that operates within the Fediverse network.
This appears on “Explore the Fediverse”. The fact that kbin is not capitalized but cafe is strikes me as a little weird.
Some kbin instances choose the part of the URL before the period or the part after it. For obvious reasons we probably shouldn’t choose kbin. Maybe just calling it Cafe, like we already did for m/CafeMeta?
Hopefully everyone in the northern hemisphere is having an eventful summer. Stay cool!
I've updated Kbin.cafe to the latest development code today; it appears that some users may have been logged out as a result. If you were, this is why.
We're currently hovering at 99 users on this instance, which is a relatively small number but leaves us on the verge of an incredible milestone that I certainly could have never expected. I'm happy that every single one of you can call this place your threadiverse home! Please continue enjoying the content, posting, voting, and invite your friends. Part of the ethis of this community is to carry the spirit of the fediverse forward, helping to ensure everyone doesn't congregate on Kbin.social, so the more active users the better.
This said, I have a rough roadmap of updates that will be rolling out over the next week:
Add links to Discord, Matrix, and our status page either on the about page or somewhere in the naviga
