The biggest problem with kbin is honestly quite simple, but I don’t people is talking about is the fact that finding the magazines that I’m subscribed to is in Settings > Subscribed, on Reddit, it’s literally in the top bar, I don’t get why it’s buried in settings. Another thing is why is my home page full of posts from magazines that I’m not subscribed to and mostly not intrested in? I know I can do /sub to access the magazines feed, but why is hidden and why isn’t it just the default?

Agreed. My bigger issue is with the logic for compiling listings. If you are subscribed to a magazine that is much more active than the others, the big magazine completely dominates and you never see anything else. That’s a tricky sort of algorithm to fine-tune, but in the meantime I may have to unsubscribe from this meta mag if I ever want to see any other content on my front page.

Agreed. A lot of QoL features still need to be added. I want a sidebar with my subscribed magazines for easy access. Also the fact that I have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the comments section to post in a thread is annoying.

my biggest issue is that you can’t save or bookmark posts…that is badly needed

It’s way, way, way better for these hundred different feature request posts to actually just be posts to the project’s issues board.

My biggest issue is that the UI is way to information sparse. Its similar to “new reddit” but “old reddit” was a much better design in that it was information dense and easy to scan multiple posts without scrolling.
