The Fly... fuck.

Mbin's API is 100% compatible with kbin as of today, so @hariette should have little to no issues pointing Artemis at Mbin instances.

we're making it super easy for any existing kbin instance to migrate to Mbin, just a matter of pointing git at the new repo, pull, and update as usual.

dungarees science

mbin is a very recent fork (has all the latest commits from the kbin dev branch as of today), so not much of anything "new" or groundbreaking has happened yet. i think the main thing right now is catching up on the backlog of PRs that have been stuck in the kbin queue for months, even basic things like bumping the dependency versions to improve package security was enough to convince me to move my instance over.

some of us have moved over to mbin, it's a fork of kbin with an emphasis on community driven development. i've already migrated kbin.run over. ActivityPub is very domain name specific once things federate out, so i'm sticking with kbin in the domain...for now.

i update kbin.run to stay in sync with the most recent commit to the dev branch on a regular basis, although the update frequency is much lower now compared to 4 months ago... it's a "bare metal" install (no docker), so i made a very simple shell script to update it. half the time no one notices until they refresh the page or get inadvertently logged out due to a backend cache getting cleared. you're welcome to try it out if you'd like.

I don't care what you want on it, every pizza comes with pepperoni and with 9mm bullets on it. If you don't like it, I don't care cause you'll receive one anyhow. The only difference is, maybe the 9mm bullets will be in the gun or maybe they'll be on your pizza.

and they better watch out, there's a live stick of dynamite next to that ekg machine. time's a ticking, hurry up and buy!

i use Tailscale on everything these days (or use Headscale if you want to self host the control plane). with the free plan you get up to 100 devices on a "tailnet", just set the right ACLs to only allow the remote connection ports of choice, pair it with self hosted RustDesk, and you should be good to go. the NAT traversal of Tailscale is pretty good from what i've observed, but sometimes you might get stuck on a relay (called a DERP) if it can't get across the firewall(s).

Dave Plummer has a very interesting take on this since he was the dev manager for Windows CD Autorun at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWjq2SdzpI
