I found out about it because of a hacker news comment discussing the Reddit drama. I’m pretty upset that I didn’t discover it on Reddit. I assume any mention of Lemmy was marked as spam or was I just not browsing the right communities?
Can’t remember. Probably 2 weeks ago on a random reddit thread.
I caught the post about reddit censoring mentions of lemmy that made it to the front page. Streisand effect.

It feels like a lot of people new to the fediverse think it revolves around lemmy. It always feels a bit divisive to come across posts like this that single out lemmy. It would be nice if people asked about the fediverse or threadiverse or something. Don’t forget that us kbin users (among others) are browsing the same threads and partaking in the same discussions.
I didn’t know there were other reddit like federated apps out there, my bad.
The tech is incredible, posts are shared seamlessly and replies are almost instant! The threadiverse is going to have so many cool apps in the future.
I still don’t understand if I’m on Kbin or Lemmy. I have a Kbin login so this is Kbin right? But I can view subs/magazines/federations on lemmy? But not all of the content? And I can comment/interact with those Lemmyubs/magazines/federations if i’m on Kbin, but not with the same account if I go to Lemmy? WTF is going on.
The way it should work is everything can interact with everything unless its defederated.
you’re on kbin, you can tell because your username ends in @kbin.social, which is a kbin instance. Instance is just another name for a server. Due to federation you can view and comment on threads from any other federated instance. You can also join maganzines (called communities on Lemmy, groups on mastadon, and subreddits on reddit) from any other federated instance as well. The only thing I don’t think you can do is become a moderator on another instance. Note, the content is being brought to your kbin feed because we are federated, if you go to to the original instance you’ve left the website and thus won’t be logged in.
Same. I think I only have the kbin and am not sure if I have the lemmy. I keep seeing posts like this talking about it so I must be. Fuck am I old?
