I was really hoping the legalizing in Germany would go well and set an example for the rest of Europe but of course it couldn't be that easy..

I was also selfishly hoping that Germany legalizing would flood the Danish market with good weed.

Viel Glück, Leute!

Almost like it's caused by broader societal issues

I know Ernest is working on getting ready to update kbin.social but are there any other instances which are faster with the bug fixes and updates?

Finally coming out of early access!

It is pretty weird, like "The reaction was one of massive support for all the affected mothers"..?

You should see the comments on instagram reels whenever a teacher posts something and there's a rainbow in the background, like just a rainbow on the wall in a kindergarten class or something, so many people absolutely fucking lose their minds and spew the most vile shit at these teachers, it's bizarre.

I hope updates after this big one are gonna come more regularly and that smaller fixes aren't pushed to be included in big updates.
There's a lot of issues which have seemingly been solved a long time ago now but we don't have the fixes because it's all in the big update.

It doesn't feel great to have issues, some of them quite critical, go unfixed for this long and it's probably making people not use kbin as much which is dangerous if we wanna keep this place, especially at this early stage.

I'm of course very appreciative of the work being done and I'm looking forward to the update!

Why do they keep giving the word "streamers" new meanings??

A streamer is someone who streams, as in Twitch streamers.
But for some reason they started using it about the streaming services and now it's also the people using streaming services to watch stuff..?

The front page seems to work alright most of the time but when I try to load any thread it either loads so slowly(sometimes like 30+ seconds) that I end up closing the page or I get hit with a Error 50x page that has been saying "Over the next few days, there will be a change in server infrastructure." for a long time.

Expanding images on the front page also tends to be slow.

Sometimes I get the 50x page when trying to do various things like posting a thread, upvoting, blocking and so on.

I feel like I haven't really seen anyone else mentioning it, is this just happening on my end, is it a known issue, if so then when can we expect things to get better?

Sadly it's quite effectively training me to not come here often since it rarely works.

Those damn judgy vegans! (media.kbin.social)

Vegans are so extreme (media.kbin.social)
[-] NotAPenguin@kbin.social 52 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This just seems like a bunch of straw-man arguments?

There's vegan fur and leather alternatives which aren't just plastic.
Actual fur and leather are also terrible for the environment.

No vegans are yelling at indigenous hunters or saying that people of color should be exploited, using other people's suffering as an excuse to hurt animals yourself is silly.

Have you ever actually seen a vegan go after indigenous people? Or have you just seen people complaining about nothing like in this tweet?

Why spend so much time and energy trying to undermine veganism for no good reason?
We're simply asking you to not needlessly exploit animals.

The US-defaultism that happens on the internet is very annoying

This is just ragebait, without knowing what they posted it's useless information.
