The demographics of Kbin | Survey ( take.supersurvey.com )

I'm curious about the demographic makeup of Kbin. As we are still in it's infancy I feel that most lean towards a certain way, so I made this survey just now to find out. I encourage you to join in, and you can skip any and every question if you so choose. You can view the results at the bottom of the page.

Yep, though the single option is often written as single/never married so that it's more clear. We don't have common law marriages (except a few states) so those 4 categories cover every situation, though without much detail.

I don't think so? I'm struggling to think of how it would enhance human rights. Isn't it the same as regular marriage without the trip to the local court? I always thought other countries had it as a penalty so that couples couldn't use cohabitating but not getting married as a tax loophole.

I think the rush to recreate communities is a bad idea. ( kbin.social )

If you recall reddits growth many of their communities evolved as offshoots of a single generic community. This made it easier for people to see discussions they normally would not get involved in, and once the posts in a similar category reached critical mass it moved to a sub Reddit....

I think that's true for some niche topics, but other ones are better served by having dedicated communities from the start.

When I joined I made 2 magazines. One of them was about collecting Nintendo games and I quickly realized that I would have better discussions if I just joined the Nintendo magazine. I've basically abandoned it. The other I made, m/Otomegames I think is needed. We could post in the general gaming magazines, but there's a whole bunch conventions and inside jokes that people who don't play otome games wouldn't understand.

Now for my shameless plug: do you like otome games? Do you not know what otome games are, but romance/adventure games made for women sounds intriguing? Come join us <- direct link. "@Otomegames @kbin.social" <- remove the space for federated peeps

Why not try starting a magazine with a very similar name? I think the magazines are case sensitive so maybe m/Hardware

Hi, thank you for your contributions!

I find myself wondering how many people we need to have a self-sustaining community. I've been making and stockpiling memes and discussion ideas so I can post regularly, but ideally there'd be enough people so that my posts aren't the majority.
