I’m seeing the federated content, but it’s hard to tell where the content came from. Currently, the only reliable way to see the source is by reading the URL when you’re viewing a thread. It doesn’t work well on mobile though and it doesn’t work for the feed.

How work everyone feel if the magazine included the source always? So instead of saying kbinMeta, you’d see kbinMeta@kbin.social? Or would you prefer another solution?

    It would be nice to not have to sift through so much chaff to find wheat

    Isn’t that the nature of social networks, though xD

    it should be up to the user to decide what they see for the most part. At least, they should be able to decide what they don’t see.

    You can always turn off federation by going into your Kbin sidebar and clicking on the little triangle icon, next to the settings.

    Or you can go to https://kbin.social/sub, to view the equivalent of your Reddit home page (i.e. with the communities you’re subscribed to). https://kbin.social/ is more like r/all, where you’ll see stuff from your subscriptions, plus other random stuff.

      Or just block mags/bins/communities you don’t care about. Just got rid of one today and now I won’t see it on my all feed again.
