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.

does it work the other way arround? to use Lemmy from Kbin?
Yup. I'm on kbin and can see and interact with this lemmy thread just fine :)
is better over there?
would you recommend it?
I haven't really used lemmy but it didn't appeal to me. kbin feels more familiar to me (as it's very similar to how reddit works). kbin is super cozy, so I'd recommend it.
I mean, if having trouble seeing Lemmy stuff rn.
since you're on lemmy.world you should see all lemmy.world stuff easily. here on kbin we've been having some federation issues in the past and i'm not sure everything is 100% synced yet but I've definitely run into missing posts here and there.
and other kbin instances?
Ironically, kbin's federation problems seem to surround other kbin instances lol. I think fedia.io broke their federation. There's not really a lot of kbin instances tbh. It's mostly just here on kbin.social.
I see, do you think in the upcoming weeks thing will get better?
Yes. For kbinauts it's already getting better. My first few days here we had basically no federation at all, and now it's working fairly reliably.
and what's the best kbin instance? kbin social?
Yup. Kbin.social is the main instance and is really the only one worth considering at this point imo.
thanks for the answers! :)
