YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content
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. !RedditMigration@kbin.social
or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration
Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @ernest@kbin.social over the past few days.

@CodingAndCoffee So you're saying I can reply to this from Mastodon also?
EDIT: please reply if you see this from kbin/lemmy š
Hello mastodon user. I'm seeing this on kbin.social as part of a "lemmy.world" thread. On kbin we have magazines (like reddit's subreddits). This magazine is "youshouldknow@lemmy.world". Your post is showing up as a comment in this thread. I'm doing a comment reply/response to yours.
I see you from Lemmy.one
Seeing this from kbin. The future is now.
Haha tried making an account on kbin.social - can't log in.
The future is tomorrow.
Youāre on mastodon? Iām on kbin! Wow!
And I see both of your replies on lemmy, in the Jerboa app. What a time to be alive!
I thought mastodon was a ātwitterā like siteā¦ how would you be viewing Lemmy stuff?
It IS a Twitter-like site. It displays posts in more of a Twitter style. That being said - it is also part of the Fediverse, so theoretically you should be able to see all federated communities on any fediverse instance of your choosing.
Personally, I have a kbin.social account and a mastodon.social account. I'm doing this because Mastodon doesn't really present threads from kbin or lemmy in an easily digestable way, so I will use kbin as my reddit replacement, and Mastodon to replace Twitter.
So if I had the mastodon app, is there anything I can do with that? Or what would you be signed into to reply back? (Ie) Iām signed into my lemmy.fmhy.ml account, where would I sign into mastodonā¦ tho, Iād like to create another instance to use more like my previous Reddit account
So you would have to sign up for a Mastodon instance to log on to the Mastodon app (I.e. Mastodon.social, mstdn.social, mstdn.es, etc). Similar to the fact that you're signed in to a Lemmy instance right now on lemmy.fmhy.com there are other Lemmy instances such as lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, Beehaw.org, etc.
Your Mastodon account would be completely separate from your Lemmy account.
Does that make sense? Not sure if I explained that we'll.
It makes sense they are separate, but Iām just not following the part where youād sign in the mastodon appā¦ (when to me it acts like twitter)
I do have a mastodon account btw
Similarly, I can find your Lemmy.fmhy.ml account on Mastodon by searching for "31dirty1@lemmy.fmhy.ml"
That makes more sense thank you!
I see you from the Beehaw lemmy instance!
Yes you can! :)
Awesome! Thank you.
Yes!
yes
