Kbin and Lemmy federate with each other. In fact, I’m talking to you from a kbin instance right now!

This will be weird when different people will start using the same username in different instances.

[-] Die4Ever@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Same thing as email addresses, the domain name is part of the username or community name

Could we run a kbin instance as well, sameway we do with Lemmy?

[-] starman@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, there are more than one instance of kbin

[-] Darkhoof@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

But for example, on kbin I am on kbin.social/m/technology. That's not the same as lemmy.world/c/technology right? When I search for common subs it doesn't show me the subs from the other.

Never mind. I just found out how to find federated instances on Kbin. It only defaults to local instances and I can't seem to make it show federated instances by default. It's a shame because I like its UI more than Lemmy.
