    I tried joining some kbin magazines from here (E.G: https://lemmy.world/c/Aquariums@kbin.social and https://lemmy.world/c/houseplants@kbin.social ). It did work but I’m unable to see any post from those communities. Instead the one you linked ( https://lemmy.world/c/RedditMigration@kbin.social ) works perfectly (even for newest posts/comments). Is there any fix ? EDIT: To add more troubleshooting info, It doesn’t say pending, it correctly says “joined” but still no posts.

    Does this mean you are posting this on lemmy.world and I am reading it on kbin?

    For those of us new to the fediverse, this is so exciting!

        Oh, i actually didn’t know Kbin (despite these posts lol) was being seen from Lemmy. Iirc when i first saw Kbin a few days ago, Kbin could see Lemmy but Lemmy couldn’t see Kbin. Ie it’s like it was a partial federation.

        I’m curious on if that was accurate and if it was, what caused it in a technical sense. Given i’m a dev working on some ActivityPub stuff, i’m quite interested in it. Though i’ve not yet used the spec, clearly hah.

        Wow this is neat!

        How can I tell that a post is from another instance when browsing on Kbin? Just scanning the card for this thread, it isn’t apparent that it’s federated content.

      Is looking at the username how you can tell where a post is coming from? I was so confused a while ago with posts saying “something something fellow Beehaw users!” and it was marked as (kbin.social) lol.

    Now I’m curious, can KBin users be mods on Lemmy instances, and can Lemmy users moderate Kbin magazines?

      Well I don’t know about that, but “appoint as mod” option still exists when I select your comment. Maybe we can make a test community to find out the answer haha

        What is a reddit thread if not a root tweet with a bunch of replies (and replies to the replies) formatted in a way that you see the organization of the replies?

          I like this idea and the Mastedon app seems much faster to post… that’s really my only wish list item from lemmy right now. I’m figuring that’s a temporary imbalance of increase activity and server bandwidth/speed? I understand we are decentralized but so is Mastodon and at least my instance is very smooth and fast.

            I can’t speak to Lemmy’s implementation (I refuse to go near lemmy on account of the maintainers “politics”), but there’s nothing fundamental about threading that should make posting slower.

            Loading threads here is… different… work than loading your feed in mastodon, it’s possibly slower, but posting is from a theoretical standpoint the same. Probably you’re just seeing the effect of your lemmy instance not running on sufficient hardware (very understandable given the explosion in user space size).

              Can you elaborate on the ‘politics’?

              I sense something weird , especially with the hardcoded ‘hate speech’ filter, which seems to run contrary to federation.

              Anything else I should know about ?

                The broad strokes are here: https://mstdn.social/@feditips/106835057054633379

                In addition to the more important issues that fedi-tips discusses I find their stance on anti-vax and US-election conspiracy theories… unappealing, which you can see being discussed here: https://lemmy.ml/post/143057

                And that they haven’t been shy about exerting their power for political purposes. The hardcoded slur-filter was explicitly about discouraging “right wingers” (I put that in quotes because I suspect their definition of right wing and mine differ), and they at least use to be open about their intentions to moderate the instances that they run as explicitly “left wing” (though I don’t see a reference to that on the current site).

    So I’m looking for a magazine that I know is on kbin, that I want to subscribe from here. I’ve tried typing in the magazine name in the address bar (lemmy.world/c/Utah@kbin.social), I’ve tried searching in the “communities” search, and I’m just not finding it and getting errors. Direct linking works, but I then I can only subscribe if I have an account on kbin. Help?

      I haven’t been able to join Kbin magazines by searching in the !magazine@instance format, but when I just paste the URL from Kbin into the search I’ve been able to add them that way.

    Any help? I’ve joined a magazine from lemmy and nothing shows up, but I have a kbin account too and know there’s posts I’m not seeing.

        Mobile, using Lemmy site to view a kbin Magazine that appears empty and says “no posts” but when I check on kbin I can see that’s not true

      It’s probably just because you were the first user to subscribe to it at sopuli.xyz

      According to your server’s nodeinfo there’s only 462 users active this month.

    Jerboa seems to crash when clicking links with the ! point but I can do it from the desktop browser. This is great!

    hello. can confirm. I’m on kbin.social right now and seeing this thread. I’m not sure federating is entirely up just yet but it’s working a lot better/faster than it was these past few days. Definitely seeing an influx of beehaw and lemmy world users and posts :)

      Try pasting the browser url as it is in kbin, instead of using the Lemmy syntax. I know it’s goofy but it works.

        Neither seems to work for me, maybe federation is overloaded with the sudden influx? I’ll report back if it ends up working.
