Hats off, guys. I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for you guys to keep kbin.social up and running since yesterday.

As a recent refugee from Reddit, I promise to wind down my use of Reddit until such a time as/if when they get rid of their API restrictions. I promise to play my part towards the newly forming community here and create content for the community at large.

Fediverse servers are written in all kinds of languages. Mastodon is in Ruby (using Rails), Pleroma, Akkoma, and Bonfire in Elixir, GoToSocial is in Go, Misskey and Calckey in typescript (using Node). Whatever works!
