Quick question, I’m looking to make an Mbin account and just wanted to ask if there is any lemmy.ml type of situation to be aware of.

When I created the Mbin fork, I got a lot of hate without any reason. The reason the fork was created was simply because the kbin development was stopping their development. And the project was a bit trapped by a single maintainer. Hence also the reason I introduced C4 spec: https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/blob/main/C4.md.

Since C4 spec is in place, I'm not the only maintainer. Multiple people have full rights of the project. But I'm also tired about all the sh*ttalk about us.

If you have any follow-up questions to me personally (I can only speak on my own behalf). Just post them below my comment.

It seems there are always people on the internet who spread negativity about those who actually create things. Best you can do is ignore them.

Apparently so. And I don't even get paid to do development. I also have a full-time job at the same time. So Mbin development takes a lot time and effort. And people don't see that.

I just checked out your website, you have a lot of active projects, impressive! I only work on Lemmy, fulltime, but yet there is way too much work.

Thanks. I do indeed a lot of open source projects in parallel. Besides mbin I also contribute and maintain dozens of open source projects and packages.

https://github.com/melroy89/ is my github.

I also host my own GitLab instance which also host a lot of my projects: https://gitlab.melroy.org/explore/projects

I got a lot of hate without any reason.

I never really got it either, thank you for your work!
