This is not true but I’ve seen this posted many times. I don’t even think there was talk of defederating from kbin among the admins. But I think this is a great litmus test for how people generally feel about that defederation. People simply see beehaw cutting itself off from the other large instances and assume that’s the policy.
I had that problem earlier as well earlier in the week but I’m able to sub to kbin.social magazines now. Still figuring out how all this works though 😄
i’ve read kbin might get merged with lemmy (or vice versa, whatever) , but cannot find the post talking about it anymore
anyone to confirm whether it’s true (perhaps was I just dreaming , after all)
What do you mean? They can access the contents of each other
oh? I understood they couldn’t , thanks for correcting me !
Yup I’m reading and posting this from Kbin right now! Federation is awesome!
I was wrong and spewed missinformation. Sorry
Which kbin instance?
I know BeeHaw defederated lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works.
I’m unaware of it defederating kbin instance. I do know for a fact it wasn’t kbin.social.
Then I’m sorry I was misinformed, editing

As far as I know, lemmy instances can’t sub to kbin magazines yet. I can’t on my instance at least
im subbed to several kbin magazines form my instance
Interesting - then it’s a problem with my thing’s config. Thanks for the info - I’ll check into it

Is there any benefit to merging if it’s all just federated between them?
my aplogies, I thought they couldn’t access each other’s content, which , as zekiz said, isnt the case
