update:

- The kbin.social server is now federating with the Fediverse. You can follow/interact with kbin.social magazines & users from other Kbin servers, Mastodon & rest of the Fediverse. For example the TIL group is at @TodayILearned, the lead dev of Kbin is at @ernest

- There's a new Kbin server at readit.buzz which is run by the same people as the Universodon.com Mastodon server. It's open for signups, just click "log in" and then "register".

@ernest any chance the NSFW setting will be respected for outside posts?

I just had a post from lemmy.world gone gonewild show up in my feed despite the hide NSFW setting

Question: when I look at Mastodon toots from kbin.social, they all appear under the 'random' magazine. Is there a way to tag my toot to be categorized under a specific magazine?

@feditips @ernest @TodayILearned does kbin federate well with Lemmy?

Social media is the best way for me to keep up with news. One needs to still sift, but without the corporate media propaganda bs is so damn pleasant.

Realize Fediverse is social media without the stink of Musk.

@feditips When I search for kbin.social instances on Mastodon, I can find the group, but they all show 0 posts. This is obviously not the case, because if you go to the kbin Magazine on kbin.social, there are indeed posts.

Similarly, if I look for a Lemmy community on Mastodon, I am able to see the posts from that community here on Mastodon. So, at least to me, it looks to be something on kbin's side.

Looks like it's federating, but some of the federation is broken? Not sure.

@feditips i wasnโ€™t able to see the linuxmasterrace@feddit.de instance on readit, is it blocked?

Also Iโ€™m pretty sure you just posted to the TIL magazine by tagging it

@feditips @ernest @TodayILearned I don't understand how this federation works cross fedi-software. Like could I follow a kbin subkbin(?) on mastidon and vice verse??

@feditips I have a question, because I saw a lot of posts celebrating Kbin's federation, however I am confused about how it works.

I seemingly can only see the magazines as Masto profiles, but I can't seem to get farther past that. Trunks fails to even load up the profile info, which is forgivable because it's new. However my fallback app, Tusky, can't load any posts either.

Are Kbin instances still not fully compatible with Mastodon? Is it the fault of the apps I use? Idk where's my issue '^^

@feditips Does this mean that we would be able to interact with content on Bookwyrm from a kbin account?

The #RobberBarron capitalists at #Reddit are going #FullMusk on #Kbin's lead developer:

lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35555

I'd say: move on as soon as you can.

@feditips @ernest @TodayILearned Kbin, Lemmy, etc aren't making sense to me. Could you do a series of back to basics posts about how they work at all please? Apologies if you've already done so and I've missed them.

@feditips @ernest @TodayILearned There's a new service at kbin.world that attempts to find the most geographically relevant kbin magazine for you
