New to kbin. I’m trying to wrap my head around how federation works. If a community develops on a different server/instance than where I created my account, can I create threads and reply to others? Or just view? I read everywhere that federation allows following across different instances, but viewing content is different than participating in a community. If my account is on kbin.social can I create a thread or reply in a thread for a magazine that is in fedia.io?
Yeah, it even works across software like me seeing this on lemmy. The trickiest part is if you are the first person to interact with a given magazine. You have to ”establish” the federation. Best way I can recommend is pasting the direct link into both the general kbin search and the magazine search a few times then you just have to wait a bit.
