Are there any kbin instances which are up to date with the source code? (kbin.social)

I know Ernest is working on getting ready to update kbin.social but are there any other instances which are faster with the bug fixes and updates?

I was going to get involved in the development but after 4 months they still haven't merged the PR which makes it easier to onboard new developers (and also makes it easier to spin up new or update existing environments) so I've reconsidered where to spend my time. Which is a shame because when I saw kbin was built on Symfony in PHP I had very high hopes for it. I think the onslaught of new users completely overwhelmed the developer to where maintaining the instance took priority over developing it, which in the end makes it more likely to die off instead. /rant
