  • and when I say NOTHING I mean without financing the project.

    This is not quite true, the project was being partially financed by external parties

    But you are right. And we all know this. Kbin/mbin still is a fantastic project. We all respect Ernest for creating it. The software was immature as you said, a lot of people jumped in and offered their help, including actually making the features they were, as you call it, demanding. He was no longer alone. When things went south, everybody sympathized and several people offered him help and advice in many ways, which he has explicitly refused.

    But that was all then, circumstances were far from optimal, indeed. Things are back to normal now, have in fact been for quite a while. This would have been the chance to get things sorted, especially delegating access to the back end of kbin.social, but sadly, nothing has changed


  • I was reminded of the situation by a notification of this comment on my post. I realized it was a week ago and out of curiosity checked Ernest’s dev blog and the codeberg repo to see if any progress had been made. That is not tracking, that is not stalking, that is not harassment.

    You said before you were not involved. Well, now you are. This thread has now been escalated from defamation to false accusations against me, by you.

    For real, stop trying to silence me, @melroy and others by pretending I’m committing crimes, and by trying to install fear of further escalation.

    Stop trying to blame me for this situation.


  • It seems you are suggesting I am defaming somebody here. That would be ironical, I fully agree and I’d join you laughing, at myself. If I am misinterpreting you let me know. However, please do prove somehow that I am defaming somebody, anybody. I would seriously be delighted to be proven wrong in this matter.

    Calling me childish and desperate for attention. Way less striking than calling an entire group of people insane, but still unnecessarily degrading. Resorting to such language comes across as being desperate to winning a conversation.

    About constructive conversation. Calling people insane is not the way to enter one. Talking about irony.

    I am very interested to hearing how and where I defamed anybody.
