zu testzwecken > this is my favorite alt acc on the fedi

  • from the article:

    Lady Moxon said the Crown response "signifies a systematic breakdown of the principles outlined in Te Tiriti o Waitangi across all government levels."

    In its response, the Crown acknowledged it had not consulted with its Treaty partner and it currently had no alternative solution to addressing health inequities for Māori.

    The Crown said its decision to dismantle Te Aka Whai Ora was "made by the government at the political level following political parties campaigning on this issue ahead of the recent General Election."

    A submission responding to the Crowns opposition was filed on behalf of claimants on Wednesday which said the Crown "clearly intended to create backlash against Māori."

    It said, the government intentionally created the "false impression of special treatment for Māori" and that "special treatment was presented as a problem politicians could promise to solve if elected, as a means to gain votes."

  • @ThatOneKirbyMain2568i hope so, too!

    if mod tools worked better, the microblogging sections could become even more interesting in terms of content, and less of a hassle for moderators 🙏

  • @ThatOneKirbyMain2568

    1. microblog posts: rarely, but once in a while
    2. microblog replies: don't work atm, but i like it!
    3. microblog tab: depending on whether i have to micro-manage or not:

    • kbin's mod tools are buggy, e.g. an account banned from a magazine can still spam the microblogging section > mods better look inside the microblog tab ...
    • otherwise depending on my mood

    1. viewing microblog posts in my home feed: all the time - i like it even more on kbin than on specific microblogging fedi platforms tbh
    2. aggregated view is great! i keep boosting loads of microblog posts via kbin ✨
  • @ThatOneKirbyMain2568thank you for your concise and systematic approach - i am very fond of your suggestions!

    atm, kbin ui feels a bit cluttered, indeed > page navigation should be easier > is there any navigation tutorial btw?

  • @palordrolapoh, the rhymes are quirky, and filled with joy :)

    Like many folks on aggregator sites, I'd create magazines / communities / sub-sites if I didn't mean I then had to manage and moderate them afterwards. (There are many things in life that fit this pattern.)

    yes, creating a magazine is the easy part, whereas maintaining a magazine is a matter of discipline

  • from the article:

    Māori health advocates are leading a bid to the Waitangi Tribunal to stop government plans to disestablish Te Aka Whai Ora, the Māori Health Authority.The government plans to disestablish the authority in its first 100 days.Lady Tureiti Moxon and the head of a Māori primary health organisation, Janice Kuka, have made a request for an urgent hearing regarding the government's plans on 8 December.

    A Waitangi Tribunal document published on Thursday said they were making the request on behalf of governors, managers, staff and Māori cared for by Māori-owned primary health organisations.Judge Damian Stone is considering the request and has given the Crown until the end of Monday to reply.

    The Māori health authority was set up last year under health reforms, with the aim of giving Māori a greater say in their own healthcare and ending poorer health statistics.Their Statement of Claim, lodged with the Tribunal, said disestablishing the authority would prejudicially affect Māori and force Māori health providers to continue operating in an overstretched and underfunded capacity.There would no longer be a Māori body which aimed to create services to achieve the best possible health outcomes for Māori and promote Māori health.They pointed out historic underfunding by the crown for Māori health providers and primary health organisations (umbrella groups comprising GP practices and other community health services).The Crown was supposed to work with Māori to change that, but had not, they said.Abolishing the authority would be inconsistent with the Treaty principles of tino rangatiratanga, partnership and equity, the claim said.

  • @ThatOneKirbyMain2568given the sheer size of threads, most fedi platforms still lack well-developed moderation tools > this is a tough nut to crack, thus preemptive defederation is a must when it comes to threads

  • @BiggestBulbusing kbin mostly on mobile devices, i am time and again surprised that kbin works kinda fine > e.g. kbin deals better with bad internet connections than any other fedi software i have come to know so far > given that kbin is still early beta, this is impressive

    i think that we should be patient, and keep reporting bugs :)

  • @testing Can you repeat your tests regarding tags between kbin and other instances? It should be significantly better ;)

    Jump
  • @ernestthank you! tags from kbin do federate on microblogging fedi - kbin users should use the the tags section rather than the text body though

    1. i also had a look at friendica; sadly, friendica seems not to be capable to pick up tagged posts from kbin > see e.g. https://friendica.opensocial.space/search?tag=kbin > tried my luck at several friendica instances, and every time: no content from kbin

    2. tags in kbin threads do not display on kbin pwa, e.g. https://kbin.social/m/kbinDevlog/t/692551 > on microblogging fedi platforms, i can see three tags: kbin, fediverse, and kbinDevlog for the magazine > with kbin pwa, neither kbin nor fediverse show up

  • @bogdugg

    The solution, however, is not to reduce the number of instances, but rather to provide more tools for instances to group communities together.

    kbin collections are grouping together communities, but unfortunately, collections themselves do not federate@gicagaf805
