Will /kbin eventually support the more "advanced" microblog platforms like Misskey or Firefish? (kbin.social)

It looks like right now, you can view /kbin users and content from Misskey and Firefish instances, but not the other way around; I'm not able to view my accounts from either of those instances here on /kbin. From what I can tell, I can only view content from Mastodon and Pixelfed instances.

Since it seems like a lot of users are moving from Mastodon to the newer, prettier platforms like Firefish, do we know if /kbin will eventually incorporate that content?

I've been able to see Misskey users relatively fine. Been able to follow, but posts don't always federate, and sometimes images break.

Interesting! I can't seem to see any accounts or posts from the Misskey.io instance, even if I directly enter the URL for where the account should be, so maybe it's particular to the instance in that case. Having the same thing with my Firefish.social account, too.

I can see misskey users, but a lot of the posts aren't federated properly, if you look at the account QQQewie@misskey.io only a single image post is there, where on misskey there's already a whole lot more.
