Because they don't get listed by browse.feddit.de you'll want to browse https://kbin.social/magazines to browse "magazines", which is what they call communities
e.g. [email protected]
or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration
Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @[email protected] over the past few days.
You're viewing a single thread.
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 :)
Unfortunately, beehaw has decided that they don't like this whole "federation" thing. Hopefully we'll see replacements for their communities in the coming days.
LOL, how silly. A federated community going unfederated is just a small echo chamber. See ya beehaw!
I'm kinda shocked they're openly saying "I just don't like [lemmy.world's] vibe" as one of the justifications, as that looks like the slipperiest of slopes.
Kbin users weren't defederated from them so we can still see and post in their communities.
I don’t think it’ll end well for them, and it’s a disappointing choice. However, choosing to not federate is just as much a part of the system as choosing to federate. If everyone had to run exactly the same setup we everyone else, the whole thing would be pointless.
Well thank you for your candor!
