YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content

CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world to You Should Know@lemmy.world – 972 points –

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 Very cool! (Posting this from Mastodon.)

How does that work? Just type the !...@... name in the search there? (It didn't work when I tried a few days ago)

@Lemmy @anuckols On Mastodon you can just type in the name and press enter and it finds everyone with that instance. Normally though you would type @name@instance.something in search and you can find who or what your looking for. Works like that on lemmy

@anuckols @CodingAndCoffee Clicking the federation link button from the Lemmy thread brought me to my Mastodon account where I am replying now. Wild stuff lol
