Hi everyone, You may have noticed a small change on the website. From now on, upvotes work just like on Lemmy - they are equivalent to Mastodon’s “favourite.” You can boost a post using the button that replaced “favourite.” Another change is that you can now rate and boost your own posts. Boosting has a one-time effect - it elevates the post to the top of the “Active” list, adds points used for the “Hot” section, and appears as a boost on other instances.

A language selection dropdown has been added to the footer - thank you all for that!

It seems that the Docker update has also brought significant improvements.

Now, I want to focus on bringing the instance creation instructions to a satisfactory state.

I promise to get back to your questions and comments as soon as possible - there have been quite a few of them. But for now, I need to keep an eye on the queue charts to make sure I don’t stumble and accidentally cause problems for other instances ;)

Oh, and here’s some good news: my application for Fast Forward has been accepted, and I’ll do my best to make it truly thrilling here soon ;p

Meanwhile, I’ll be away for a bit, but I’m constantly monitoring reports, the matrix, email, and mentions.

Have a great day!

This is amazing and right in line with how I expect the boost/upvote/downvote system to work. Thank you so much, I’ll be mindful to continue boosting the best comments and threads so people keep finding /kbin!
