@melroy @yogthos @wahming @SamXavia (et al.) Thank you for the explanation! While I'm not a kbin user myself (I just have a Lemmy account), I'm still glad (as a threadiverse and fediverse user) there are people keeping the project going and developing it. I can definitely understand the sudden influx of reddit users being quite a shock for maintainers, so it's heartening to see the platform survive and continue onwards, thanks to the magic of being open-source.

that seems like a pretty sensible reason, open source working as intended

Yea this is the power of open-source indeed. See also my response to "stu" a little down below in this same thread.
