It's a new year — about 6 months since that Reddit migration occurred — and Kbin progressed a ton in 2023. What are your thoughts on it? How much value have you gotten out of it, and what would you like to see in the future?
i hope that the project itself will become more stable, and that ernest will find someone to admin kbin.social, so that ernest can focus on software development
Dude. I've always used the default (on #Plasma, I think) #Okular app for my PDF needs on #Linux, and it's been fine and I'll continue to do so. But annotation isn't its best quality.
I needed to sign some documents today and was looking into any apps I could use my cheap "drawing tablet" with to annotate. You could sorta make do with Okular for that but it's "drawing" annotation isn't really designed for anything but to draw lines - so everything will be "blocky" or "jagged" rather than appear natural/free flow.
Looking up online people kept recommending #Xournal, I ignored it too many times just bcos of its very Linuxy name lmao but IT'S SO GOOD and is exactly what I (and YOU) need. You could use it to draw/write notes as you would on say, an #iPad, or even to draw/annotate on PDFs. I've just started using it at the time of writing this but I love it already and can see that it's very capable, and intuitive.
I literally just connected my drawing tablet to my #SteamDeck dock, installed the Xournal app from the #Discover app store as a #Flatpak, open up my PDF with Xournal and started writing and exported my doc as a PDF. People need to know about this app.
I just suspended the 'kbin.social' domain from our side, the issues on their side is happening for days now and it really effects our service backend now also.. If they have it all solved we will remove the block and we can refollow again Sorry about this but we don't have other options
PNG's Porgera gold mine could potentially transform the fortunes of an impoverished province now that it has reopened. But some locals say they've experienced considerable environmental damage from the mine's waste and tailings.

40 percent of the 33 seats in parliament have changed hands as a result of the November 20 national election.
Among high-profile incumbents losing re-election bids were fisheries and climate Minister John Silk, a 24-year parliament veteran who has been in the cabinet of multiple administrations, and Speaker Kenneth Kedi, who has been an outspoken advocate for justice for nuclear test-affected people of Rongelap, his home atoll, and the entire Marshall Islands.
Voting data provided by the electoral office shows extremely low voter turnout, based on the number of registered voters.
There is no way to determine if the number of voters listed on the Electoral Administrations eligible list of voters is accurate. But based on the available data, only 33 percent - 17,998 - turned out to vote of the 55,167 registered voters.
The postal absentee ballots were particularly problematic. With nearly half the Marshall Islands population now residing in the United States, postal absentee voters could have a major impact on the outcome of national elections. As a result of only a few ballots arriving in time to be counted, only one parliament race was changed by offshore voters.
The Electoral Administration mailed out 3,752 postal ballots to voters - over 1,600 less than one week before the deadline for voters to mail them back to the Marshall Islands - and only 1,469 returned before the December 4 deadline. But only 1,117 postal absentee ballots - 30 percent of those mailed out - were ultimately accepted and counted.
