Is the kbin project completely dead?

the repo has nothing going on

the kbin.social website partly loads with error

did it just evaporate? or what?

the original developer mentioned handing off the site/project to other people due to personal issues but that was like a month ago.

this is part of the reason it was forked to mbin. the risk of a project being managed by a single person instead of a community is very real.

it seems dead, but i like to remember there would be no mbin without kbin

True that, I just took a look at the FAQ and it still references kbin.

Question, how do we donate to this project?

I don't think there is a way to donate (monetarily) directly to Mbin, at least not at the moment.

The second best thing might would be to donate to server admins, which a lot of them actually are Mbin developers anyway.
