    The past couple of days I’m constantly being signed out. I have to login several times a day, practically every time I visit.

    This seems to happen much more frequently on the mobile version of the site, and whatever Artemis is using to scrape data.

      Same issue for me since yesterday. I don’t know what has changed, but it’s very frequent (tens a day I would say).

      Yes. I`ve been seeing it as well in the last 2-3 days on Firefox on mobile. Being logged out 2-3 times a day.

      In fact I just had to login to post this comment.

        This seems to have been fixed in the last couple days? I used to have this problem but it seems to have been reduced or mitigated.

      This happens to me on desktop as well. Today I can’t even log in using my username, have to use email instead.

      It’s been this way for a while for me. I had to re-login just to post this comment…

      I’m also getting an “invalid CSRF” token occasionally when I login. And error pages when I try to upvote.

      I’m using the web app on iOS.

    Is anyone else still seeing federated posts even when you turn the federation status to off? I was trying to hide some of the excess meme posts that are coming from other servers. But turning off federation does not make all of them go away. Some federated posts are still being shown.

    I can’t post but I can comment. It keeps giving me the error page. Other people seem to still be able to post on Kbin - anyone have any insight into this problem?

      Was wondering what happened to your flood of posts. Guess the error is not local to me.

      I just confirmed it’s not just images I can’t upload.
      Even text threads do that thing where “We’re Working On The Error” comes up and a phantom thread no one but you can see shows up on your profile.

      As you say though, other threads origination on kbin.social are showing up so some posters are managing to get though?

    Is this thread monitored? Asking because, from what I observed, that federated Hexbear(dot)net users and communities don’t seem to be possible to block. Or should I use the contact form?

      I’ve noticed this too. Is there any workaround? Some Hexbear users are egregious and clutter up posts with meaningless noise.

        Since this appear to be the most proper thread, I’ll keep posting as I see issue. Hopefully a staff member will see the bug reports, then.

    It’s become impossible to browse by new thanks to an army of spam bots.

    Every time I sort by new, there are several new groups of 3-5 new users posting to “random” all at once (so 12-15 spam posts for every 5-10 legit posts), I haven’t risked the click, but it’s a lot of promises of nudes or gold, or celebrity names, you know, bait.

    I’ll block and report one post from each user as spam, but that seems pointless when there’s a seemingly endless stream of them popping up.

    My feed sorted by new now, 8 of the 10 first posts are these bots:

    Is there anyway to stop this (beyond blocking m/random which I’ve now done but don’t want to)?

    I can’t see pinned posts at the moment. It seems like I can see them if I log out. I can’t seem to find a setting that would cause this that I could have changed to cause it.

    Two things: imgur.com images do not open when I click the preview button. Thing two, we still really need a reply box at the top of threads not bottom. Posted from Galaxy s22 using Samsung Internet browser.

      The imgur problem looks like it’s fixed, sometime in the last 2-3h it started working again for me.

    Been having a problem recently (and intermittently) where when I upvote a comment it goes to a page that says Error and I have to go back to the previous thread, refresh it, and then the upvote works.

    Is there a way to stop videos and audio from autoplaying? Browsing kbin on Firefox mobile and it keeps randomly playing some unknown audio.

      Ever find a fix for this? News videos keep autoplaying for me on Firefox mobile, even before I scroll to the post in the feed

        Sadly I haven’t yet, the same think happens to me, random news videos autoplaying, even when not on screen yet. I’m fairly confident there’s no setting to turn off video autoplay on kbin. Sadly even if you tell Firefox to not autoplay videos the videos continue to play, the Firefox mobile settings seem to be limited in that respect though.

        I wonder if turning it of on the desktop browser site settings and then syncing will fix it.

          Hrmm I think I have automedia preview set to on. I’ve turned it off and will see if this fixes it. I say think as the UI for the kbin page settings isn’t super clear what’s on and what’s off …

            Err well that maybe worked but it also stopped all images loading in the feed so not really helpful

              Yes, I think that’s where the problem may lie, loading images has been intertwined with video autoplay

    Notification issue I ran across today - a person can delete a message in a thread leaving “deleted by author” but the message still shows up in notifications (or part of it since notifications cuts them off at some point).

    I have an issue with creating threads on federated magazines, it does not appear on the remote server, but does here.

  • DessertStorms@kbin.social

    Just browsing new and came across the MAP (“minor and youth attracted people”) magazine from rqd2.net, most of the active people there are using the same instance. I will be blocking the instance as best I know how, but I think defederating might be the safest bet.

      I am also having this issue, federation seems almost completely broken right now. My Frontpage is entirely kbin magazines on both subscribed and all. My own posts don’t federate well either, it takes hours for them to become visible on other instances and Mastodon.

      Edit: Things seem to be working better now?

        Is it better for you now? I’m still in the same boat. My front page is full is mostly single digit comment stuff from Kbin. If I go to a lemmy app though, I will see more popular Kbin content on their front page than I am seeing while logged onto Kbin.

          No no, not a problem at all anymore. I’m seeing all my subscribed Lemmy communities across a bunch of different instances in addition to a few posts from kbin magazines.

          Kbin’s algorithm definitely switches content out faster than Lemmy’s though, could that be what you’re describing?

            My subscribed looks alright for the most part (even though I am getting stuff I did not subscribe to), but I also want to keep discovering new magazines/communities, so I go to “All” a lot. You may be describing what I see though in terms of how kbin sorts through content on All. It just makes Kbin look really empty to me compared to Lemmy. It’s rare that I will see something with hundreds of comments on my front All page.
