There's currently a spam "buy adderall" post on /m/fediverse that's been up for 16 hours now. The magazine has no moderators other than Ernest.

I also remember hearing at some point that kbin.social was being run by some other admins so that Ernest could focus on code, but I don't know who they are. Does anyone else know who we should be pinging for issues like this?

One additional question, is there an issue tracker for problems/requests that are specific to kbin.social, rather than the kbin codebase? It doesn't make sense to fill up the issue tracker on codeberg with "this magazine needs moderators" requests and the like, but we do need somewhere to keep track.

Hey, on Monday, the system for transferring magazines and submissions to moderators will be ready. I am currently working on it, which is why I need a moment of focus and isolation ;)

Was about to message you about this!

Keep up the good work!!!!

Great to hear, thank you. Are there any other server admins that we should contact about things like this in the future, or are you still the only one?

At the moment, I am the only admin on kbin.social - mainly because /kbin doesn't have a tested global administration by multiple admins/mods ;) It's something I'm currently working on. Sometimes, there are so many notifications and messages that responding would physically take up entire days. I can't reply to everything immediately, but I try to do it systematically. However, the best way to get in touch is through Matrix spaces. I feel that every problem will be properly addressed there, which is why I can allow myself to work calmly besides managing all of this ;) Another more reliable method is a contact form.

@ernest @cacheson you are SO appreciated! I am glad you are hanging in there with the massive boom #Kbin has had.

Is there a better way of reporting offensive magazines & users instead of PMing you?
