Will this app be compatible with kbin.social accounts? I've tried to sign in and it's throwing a whole page of an error message.
I will look to see how possible it is, I think the APIs are different which is why it's throwing those errors.
They’re pretty different, in that one platform has an API and the other doesn’t. 😉
Bummer that it doesn't work. I'm quite happy here on kbin. And I didn't know that the software running them was completely different. So much to learn about the fediverse. Honestly, I'm perfectly happy with the progressive web app version of kbin.social except for the inability to collapse threads. Though I understand ernest is a saint and i'm perfectly PERFECTLY happy to be patient.
Lemmy and Kbin are entirely different Software. Fediverse just allows posts to be visible between other fediverse applications.
So in this case, that does mean that someone with a Lemmy account who is subscribed (from that account) to Kbin magazines will be able to see the latter within the app, right? One wouldn't be able to login to Kbin, but could view Kbin content from their Lemmy account?
Correct!
