I still like posting here.

The spam’s a bit much at times and it goes down for days a stretch but I didn’t find any instance during this latest outage even worth considering jumping ship to.

When .social is up, that’s wha’sup.

    The project definitely accepts contributions, the mbin devs have contributed to kbin before and a few weeks ago a minor code change was committed and merged by someone other than ernest.

    As I understand it, the issue is that people with merge permissions other than ernest are only allowed to merge their own pull requests, not those of third parties, which require a review from ernest.
    (At least that’s what I’ve seen explained before, though I haven’t seen any proof of it so I don’t fully know if it’s real.)

    This means a majority of contributors can’t get their pull requests merged when ernest is gone. Which is why they went and made mbin when he was gone for months last time.
