@vintprox @feditips I think @ernest may have mentioned it but it still follows normal federation rules. At least one account on the kbin instance must be following your mastodon account, otherwise mastodon won't send the posts to the kbin instance for it to put in the right place.

@stanford @ernest Annoyingly, they have not fully defederated. Due to the nature of ActivityPub lemmy.ml users can view and interact with kbin instance magazines and content just fine.

@stanford @ernest > As far as I know, lemmy.ml itself is not blocking kbin requests...

lemmy.ml is returning 403 forbidden responses at any of it's endpoints when the useragent string contains "kbinbot". We know this because we've tried all variations. Brave kbin instance admins willing to change their useragents are able to federate just fine with lemmy.ml.

This is not a Lemmy thing, its implemented at the server or firewall level. Lemmy.ml admins have not responded at all.

@dekkzz76 @ernest I mean, maybe a bit dismissive of all the work being done, but sure.

Work on core experiences is absolutely happening, but also take time.

@dekkzz76 @ernest Most things going in atm are from community members who are "scratching their itch"

Mod tools will/are happening but there will always be way more or these sorts of things.

@livus @CodingAndCoffee And now I'm replying to it from Mastodon!
