Jump
  • MisterMoo MisterMoo 8 months ago 93%

    A former president just barely got over 50% in the first-in-the-nation Iowa Caucuses and we're describing his victory as "dominant" and a sign of strength instead of a historically weak showing from someone who's already had the job. The media continues to not know how to talk about him.

    I was using Kbin on Artemis without any login, and was pretty much fine to just lurk, but having no app at all is a real bummer. I’ll check out Lunar in the meantime but I’m itching to contribute more to Kbin as a logged in user.

    Artemis app broken - is the project still alive?

    I've enjoyed using Artemis even though I can't login through it (I'm on kbin). It's been interesting to be a pure lurker instead of an avid commenter like I was on the former site. In the past couple of days, though, Artemis has failed to fetch any new content. Deleting the iOS app and reinstalling through Testflight does nothing; the 1-2 day old posts pop right back up and nothing new will come in. At this point the question has to be asked: is work on Artemis still proceeding? Aside from a few drips and drabs Hariette hasn't been heard from in at least a month. I really hope the dream of an Apollo-like fediverse app -- which Artemis was already previewing very well for us -- isn't dead.

    Is that what it depends on? An earlier version of the Artemis app said that additional instance logins were coming in version 0.2.1 I believe, and it’s currently on 0.2.0. It also worked when I first started using Artemis before an update took it away.

    It doesn’t seem like it’s dependent on API development.

    The relationship has been dwindling for a while. I’m pretty sure she had an affair with her old assistant, Hunter. Last night we threw a dinner party for our coworkers and we basically fought the whole time. It ended in her throwing a Dundee at my tv. We broke up after this. AITA?
