Just Curious: How long does it take for a kbin post to reach mastodon?

readbeanicecream@kbin.social to /kbin meta@kbin.social – 0 points –

Or a thread to lemmy. Basically, how long does "federation" take?

(I am not sure if I am saying that correcly, but you know what I mean.)

@Arotrios @readbeanicecream @daredevil now I'm really curious how it works when you subscribe to a server. Is it pulling in that server's public and local feeds? Or is it only showing you posts from users on that server that your instance already knows about

Only that it knows about to start, but I think that once it gets subscriptions to the domain, it starts pulling more automatically. I could be wrong, however - I'm not sure which activities aside from posting are federated.

EDIT: I was wrong - the domain only grabs Threads, so Mastodon posts will likely not show up this way. They may get indexed if they're sent to a kbin magazine using the @magazinename@kbin.social format
