Thanks everyone for the help.

Original post: I want to create a niche community, but considering Lemmy can’t see kbin magazines, wouldn’t it make more sense to make the community on Lemmy, that way people from both Lemmy and kbin can be a part if it?

Maybe I should have posted this on a nostupidquestions community, I don’t know.

    Lemmy can see kbin magazines. I’m on a lemmy instance right now.

    kbin.social itself has had some federation issues in the past month, but I think that’s more growing pains of a new platform than anything inherent in the system itself.

      I hope kbin gets federated by lemmy.ml it seems they have been rather trigger happy with blocking. It seems we will have to wait and see which instance is the most free.

        A lot of the original Lemmy instances are quite trigger happy. It’s one really nice thing about the new instances with new admins who block but still prefer not to unless it’s really necessary.

          i kind of knew what i was signing up for with this lemmy ecosystem, so at worst people will just switch instances and the most free gain the most leverage, it beats this hopping from one centralized service to another by far.

            I’ve been all-in on the fediverse since early 2021, including the threadiverse. It may not be the future for the masses, but I think it might be the future for people who value freedom and autonomy.

              there are like 10 times or 20 times more users online than back when reddit even started, i think we will be fine even if it wont be for “the masses”. I respect that you got in early, a true pioneer.
