@kbin.socialwho knows. but either way, there's still an obligation to communicate with the very people who were onboard beside you, to let them know how you're feeling and what might happen to the project, because you guys also dedicated your time to this, and your time matters too.
Sometimes, that's the hardest part of coming back, believe me. But we still don't know exactly what happened, and I hope it will be clarified sooner or later, whether it's the definitive end or not. Life has taught me to be very patient, and if there's a chance, this time it will be my priority to help Hariette bring Artemis back to life, as it's truly a great app and a piece of a cool story ;)
The API will be made publicly available in the coming days. Essentially, everything is ready except for one technical issue where I need Piotr's assistance, but he is currently quite busy. However, I'm trying to resolve it as quickly as I can.
Thank you for the work you've put in, guys. Life can really knock you off your feet sometimes, and I'm pretty sure Hariette has a good reason to be offline now. II really hope everything works out for her and one day she'll be able to come back.
As for myself, at the beginning of the year, I plan to dust off the drawer and return to my mobile client that I started some time ago, and develop it in my free time. If someone likes /kbin feeling, I'm pretty sure they'll also enjoy this app ;)
You need to inform your instance that such a community exists. Usually, it's enough to type the URL https://kbin.social/m/OriginalDocuments into the search bar while logged in on Reddthat.
In the latest thing with Reddit's /kbin, it was still in the early prototype phase (and remains so to this day). Prior to this, practically only I and a few friends were using it. It wasn't ready to handle the sudden creation of dozens of instances or accommodate thousands of users. Additionally, real-world issues emerged that demanded my immediate attention. I made the decision to take a step back instead of getting caught up in a race, opting to build solid foundations, which is exactly what I'm doing now. In my opinion, this will be better for the project and potential contributors, ensuring that their work will be utilized to the best possible extent.
Actually a lot is changing in /kbin, and this recent period has brought the most changes in months. Slowly we are coming back to life, and this time I will be better prepared.
