Does this mean you are posting this on lemmy.world and I am reading it on kbin?
Haha yep, this community is hosted on lemmy.world! And you're commenting from kbin. That's so cool!
Oh, i actually didn't know Kbin (despite these posts lol) was being seen from Lemmy. Iirc when i first saw Kbin a few days ago, Kbin could see Lemmy but Lemmy couldn't see Kbin. Ie it's like it was a partial federation.
I'm curious on if that was accurate and if it was, what caused it in a technical sense. Given i'm a dev working on some ActivityPub stuff, i'm quite interested in it. Though i've not yet used the spec, clearly hah.
@livus @CodingAndCoffee And now I'm replying to it from Mastodon!
@pieceofthepie@social.n8e.dev @livus@kbin.social @CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world Oh good, it's working again! I'm commenting from Calckey.
Just started adding subscriptions to kbin magazines and I think it's starting to sink in that there is actually a decent-sized community growing here with a LOT more potential. The FediVerse being decentralized makes things feel a bit empty at first as it is now, but once you start hooking up to other platforms' content it immediately feels twice as big. The trick over time will be cross-platform development efforts that make things look and feel more seamless.
Certainly in this case, because of how how much traffic kbin.social was getting and how long it was running unfederated.
Awesome! Thanks for letting us know.
Also, please do not forget to include a "Why YSK:" in your post's body text.
So I'm looking for a magazine that I know is on kbin, that I want to subscribe from here. I've tried typing in the magazine name in the address bar (lemmy.world/c/Utah@kbin.social), I've tried searching in the "communities" search, and I'm just not finding it and getting errors. Direct linking works, but I then I can only subscribe if I have an account on kbin. Help?
- paste the full target url in search from lemmy, e.g.
https://kbin.social/m/Utah
- now it's available at !Utah@kbin.social
Ah ha, I was trying to do the short url (!utah@kbin.social), and that wasn't working. Thanks!
@CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world replying to myself from mastodon!
How…? I think my head just exploded. 🤯
What is a reddit thread if not a root tweet with a bunch of replies (and replies to the replies) formatted in a way that you see the organization of the replies?
Seeing lemmy posts on kbin this morning has me so excited. I don't even know how the R site can even compete with the fediverse at this rate
@CodingAndCoffee So you're saying I can reply to this from Mastodon also?
EDIT: please reply if you see this from kbin/lemmy 😅
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.
This has been the most fascinating last few days. Hello Lemmy from Kbin~
Hello there! :D
So cool ^^
Time to start digging through communities/magazines for places to be!
replying to myself from kbin.social!
Is it possible to do other way around? Comment on kbin from lemmy?
yes!
Hey, can you folks at Lemmy see this post from kbin.social yet?
yes
I can!
We can!
this also works for other stuff using activitypub as well btw, not just lemmy but also platforms like mastodon, peertube etc
OH THATS how you search for specific magazines on here (I am on kbin)!
Vulcan is reading this from kbin.social
The federation is now active and hello!
hello. can confirm. I'm on kbin.social right now and seeing this thread. I'm not sure federating is entirely up just yet but it's working a lot better/faster than it was these past few days. Definitely seeing an influx of beehaw and lemmy world users and posts :)
Anyone else having major differences between kbin and lemmy for the same posts?
@CodingAndCoffee So nice to be able to comment on this straight from Mastodon, too. Though it's weird that the existing comments don't show up on Mastodon when I paste the URL to this post in my search box (t)here.
I have NO idea what’s happening, but I’ll still be active when it becomes easier!
That's awesome! Looks like I joined at the perfect time. =)
I'm really curious what will eventually emerge from all these different approaches to the federatedverse.
Now I'm curious, can KBin users be mods on Lemmy instances, and can Lemmy users moderate Kbin magazines?
That's exciting. :) The more we add to this, the easier it'll be for the lazy to migrate over.
