This “You Should Know” post is top of ~June, for good reason. This post announced the kbin.social Federation/compatibility with Lemmy.
A huge amount of test-posts from a wide-variety of instances came in to test the new federation abilities (including from kbin.social, one of the biggest kbin communities).
I think this post shows the hope that over the long-term, we can get federation across the larger fediverse. I don’t know if Mastodon is in the works, but these kinds of posts give hope.
Yep it federated before the influx, and cloudflare was only temporarily in place until early last week when federation kicked in again. So this would be news to people who joined like Monday and haven’t been here much.
