Hey not sure if this is the proper venue for this, but is the REST API expected to be functional? The root endpoint (e.g. curl 'https://kbin.social/api') works, but then all the others (e.g. curl 'https://kbin.social/api/magazines') fail with a 500.
At first I figured it was just a "kbin.social is overloaded" issue, but the behavior seems consistent across a few different instances (karab.in, kbin.lol, some others I forget).
Figured I'd check if the API is, y'know, implemented/enabled/whatever before I try and repro/submit an actual useful bug report.
Hello there!
In my feed all pictures are stretched, is this a product of the layout? Can I change this somehow? I am using the progressive web app on Android.

Hello Mr @ernest
I think this is an issue, or perhaps I'm missing something somewhere?
When I receive a reply notification and click the person's reply comment, it doesn't take me to the comment in the thread, but rather to the beginning, and I have to scroll through the conversation to find my post and the replies to it. Unless I'm doing something wrong, this is going to become problematic in large active threads.
I click on their words in the notification message (as the timestamp is not a link), the comment highlights and even shows the comment number in the link for the post, but does not take me to it, even if I right-click/open in a new tab. Someone in another thread suspects this happens once the thread/and comment moves onto the second page of the thread (but making it infinate scroll doesn't fix it either).
Hey all! I’m noticing that when I get a response to one of my comments, I don’t see anywhere on mobile to click that will take me directly to the context within the thread. Am I missing something? Is this a feature that’s planned for the future?

I've noticed when viewing threads on Lemmy instances that bot replies are not showing, but the bot replies are visible through Lemmy.

I don't have an account on codeberg, so sending a bug report here. Hope it finds its way ...
When linking to a federated community with ! [email protected] (eg. [email protected] ), kbin incorrectly links to https://kbin.social/m/[email protected] (notice the extra ! ).
There is a live example of this bug in https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/62700/Fully-understand-if-this-is-impossible-but-is-there-any#entry-comment-269796
Maybe it's a server issue with all the new traffic but is the way to not get logged out after such short periods of time/usage? Feels like any time I attempt to interact with something on kbin I have to relog in.
Also, as someone else provided feedback on, being able to hide threads in a comment feed would be super useful. If it exists now I haven't figured.out how to do it
Just my initial feedback.
The Markdown tables written in a lemmy post aren't showing properly
Let me check if Markdown tables work in Kbin comments:
A B C DSearching on "active" magazines often indicates at the bottom of the webpage that there are several search webpage results.
Attempting to go to a subsequent page always yields the "first" page results.
Am I dumb or do external links just link back to the kbin thread?
For context, I've only tried out these links here in this thread.

Over the last years I been thoroughly enjoying playing a mod of [Ultima Online](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultima_Online) called **Ruins & Riches**. Ruins & Riches (formerly called UO Odyssey) is designed to provide a rewarding single-player RPG experience. Players of old Ultima games will find the world familiar, and...
Usernames when logging in are case sensitive. This should not be the case because
#1 it's very confusing (I could not figure out why my password was constantly wrong even after resetting it, until i remembered some comment from someone in the past about case sensitive login issues on some website and tried changing the first letter of my username to lowercase, then it finally worked). I haven't seen any other website work like this.
#2 you're basically allowing people to impersonate others if user account creation thinks usernames with different capitalization are unique names.
Btw, there should be an "Add comment" or "Reply" button up top on the post. At first i thought the thread was locked since there wasn't a reply button, but then i remembered some old forums put it at the bottom of the page, so i scrolled to the bottom, still no reply button. I had to scroll back up through like 4 screens worth of useless footer clutter before i finally found a comment area. This is going to decrease engagement and growth. (I'm on mobile btw). I even tapped on the + button on top to try to add a comment but there was no option. Same with the More button on the post (though it shouldn't be hidden in a More menu since it's a core feature).
The page to manage moderators is broken and returns 503 Service Unavailable. It has been doing this for at least a week. I'm unable to add moderators to the magazines that I created as a result and I could use some help on some of them.
For example: https://kbin.social/m/TodayILearned/moderators
I tried in Chrome, Safari, Firefox and curl. curl returns:

Any word on when this might be resolved?
Slightly annoying issue:
No reply notifications for comments.

I can not delete threads
I tried to post a thread a few days ago, and I get "We are working on resolving the issues",
So I waited a few hours and tried again a few times.
Then suddenly like 8 posts all the same pop'd up hours later.
I was able to remove a few duplicates, but I can't remove any more.
Not sure what's going on, but this magazine is now dead in water, as no new posts are working and I can't get rid of others.
Can someone tell me why some instances aren't updating?
For example, https://kbin.social/m/[email protected] only displays posts a week old but if you go directly to that instance, you can see posts posted a few hours ago.
Login email address (maybe username as well) is case sensitive.
If the first letter is uppercase, my login fails. Changing it to lowercase corrects the issue and I’m able to log in.
Not sure if anyone is getting this problem or whether it is a KBin issue or a browser issue.
I get an issue when browsing on mobile (Firefox) and loading magazine headers under all. If I scroll down and load a few additional magazine headers, click on a magazine title to view it and then hit back to return to the list of magazines, the list does not return me to the place I was at in the list.
Instead it truncates the list back to first loaded magazine headers and leaves me viewing the random details normally positioned at the bottom of the all list. To get it to load more magazine headers I have to scroll back to actual bottom of the listed of initially loaded magazine headers. It then starts reloading headers as normal but I then need to scroll and reload all subsequent magazine headers to get back to my position in the list.
