While kbin.social’s site mentioned that they were migrating to a new provider, and as a result, the site might be experiencing some issues, kbin.social has been serving up a similar HTTP 50x errors, and that migration message for well over a month, if not more.
What happened?

The owner of the site (Ernest, IIRC) has some health issues that have kept him from being as active as he had wanted. He also wrote the frontend code as an alternative to the Lemmy software. Mbin continues onward as a fork of Kbin.
I wish him the best. I hope he gets better. I know too well what chronic illness can do to a person.

Ah, that’s unfortunate, but understandable.

Fedia.io is an Mbin instance if you want to check it out

Does anyone know if he has given any sign of life the last few months?
