Thanks. So there isn’t really a search, you have to list all the magazines and do the search yourself it seems. Also calling https://kbin.social/api/magazines would only return local magazines right. So there is a need for a service doing that crawling/indexing of all magazines from all available instances regularly.
This is not just Reddit imho. Look at Twitter, everyone is mad all the time over there. I’m not sure how to explain what is happening but it’s all over the board imho. People get offended for everything, they seem to fail at empathy, they love to hate, it makes them feel good about themselves, every topic is somehow black or white too.
You can use Gitlab exactly the same as GitHub though if you use the hosted Gitlab. I have multiple of my open source projects on Gitlab.com and everyone can access.
Not sure what you mean. Sure you can buy any domain and put it behind. But ultimately you are much easier to doxx. Between whois, server IP etc. Then there is the issue of the security on that server too, but that’s another story. What would be better is to have a way to put this behind TOR/I2p, that would make things a bit better.
On a centralized website the issue is less present as only the admins of the server can see the details about you, ip etc (maybe mods can too on reddit, not sure), here everyone can see everything, it’s a lot more invasive imho. Everytime you upvote/downvote something, your account handle is saved on the post as upvoter/downvoter. This is very juicy data to build profiles and analytics on people.
Between this and the requirement for email address at registration I find the lack of privacy on kbin/fediverse a bit curious. I don’t see why such a feature brings value, but at the same time I guess it’s more for a technical reason. The list of users who upvoted need to be saved anyway and as it’s decentralized anyway anyone can read it. Just wished it was hashed instead, or replaced by some digital signature.
For example I think GitLabs CI is the worst on the market but if you integrate another CI you don’t have a means to feedback information into Gitlab.
You can do almost everything with the Gitlab API so I’m curious what issue you had.
I’m also not sure why “Gitlab CI is the worst on the market”? I really like in particular that I can have my own gitlab-runner on any machine.
My understanding is no. You would need account migration. And at the moment kbin or lemmy does not support it?
Only Mastodon seem to support that.

For me this is still a big issue to solve. But hopefully will happen at some point.
