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.

It was blocked by kbin having cloudflare DDoS protection enabled to reduce server load. I guess that blocks federation.

Hmm, surely there must be a way to whitelist other instances you want to federate with so they don't get blocked by cloudflare....

I'm sure you can do that in cloudflare but it'd require whitelisting every Lemmy instance that you want to federate with on kbin's end, which is a bit much.
