Federation status: ON

Seems like the federation was turned on not long ago. It's very exciting to be part of kbin's growth!

How do I see content from elsewhere? Do I need to change a setting?

I didn't set anything to be able to see it, rather I noticed on the right part of the screen in the "related magazines" something from beehaw. The content searching UI still needs improvements thought.

How do I recognize content coming from other instances? Is there a visible link or something?

Balssh@kbin.social · 0 pts · 3y

I clicked on something from beehaw and it had the @beehaw ending.

idk how you were able to create an account on lemmy.world. I gave up attempting to get an account on lemmy.world and beehaw. Both just sit there and spin for days.

Check your email for verification, my registration just spun but I did get the email

Yup I finally managed to get registered, and the first post I comment on gets swarmed by a bunch of tankies defending the CCP... So yea I think I'ma just stay hanging out here instead.

Are kbin and Lemmy completely different things? Is it possible to see Lemmy posts on here?

tjhart85@kbin.social · 0 pts · 3y (4 replies)

They are different, but share an underlying connection with the Fediverse, so you can see/interact with stuff from Lemmy/Mastadon/etc...

@Ernest is also actively trying to make sure KBin is as compatible with possible with the Fediverse projects

Do you happen to know why I can not access many explicitly German Lemmy communities? I only could contribute there once I set German as my language on @Semmelstulle. Before that it was like I was blocked.

Are they on instances that are not federated with Kbin?

Semmelstulle@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

They aren't. I can normally use some communities of feddit.de but some (eg vegan@feddit.de) can't even be found by kbin

That's findable by search now! Since Ernest removed CloudFlare, Federation is getting a lot more interesting!
