Good question. In the past, there have been some federation issues. However, things have seemed fine for awhile now. I will admit that it’s entirely possible that there are issues that I may not be aware of. I don’t do any extensive testing as I’m just a regular user, and /kbin is a younger platform which tries to do something different from lemmy and mastodon. If the Collections feature interests you, I might suggest just making a kbin account to give it a test run. You can essentially have the same feed you do now thanks to federation, but with the added benefit of feeds more suited to your interests. Public Collections are also very useful for discovering similar communities across the fediverse.

kbin has this – the feature is called collections. https://kbin.social/magazines/collections
you can make public ones that others can follow, or private ones to make curated feeds for yourself.
Hehe yeah, I’d have to agree. Studio Ghibli films are really nice. I should probably give it a rewatch some time soon.

On /kbin, there is a feature called Collections – you can group similar communities akin to multireddits. These collections can be public or private, and don’t need to have an overarching theme. Public collections are pretty handy for discoverability too.

I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen an ad on YouTube
I will be cancelling my Proton Plus subscription due to the lack of feature parity on their Linux apps. For a privacy-respecting service provider, it’s a shame Linux is so low on their priorities and so far behind in development. If you’re on Linux, I would advise to steer clear until they actually focus on the quality of their services they have established instead of pushing out half-baked products.
Cheers, I got my own lab up and running earlier this year as well.
Copy/pasted from a previous response I wrote regarding this topic. I hope it helps:
When you follow a given account on #Mastodon with your #kbin account, posts from that account will be #federated here. If they use #hashtags, then posts they write will be federated into #magazines here based on permitted tags chosen by magazine moderators which show up in the #microblogging section of a magazine. AFAIK, posts that don’t get sorted into a particular magazine will be sent to @random. In order to search for magazines/communities, you can enter
linux@lemmy.world
into the search bar for example.
Attached below is some helpful information.

I liked the name #kbin more than #lemmy, and the integration of #microblogging is a feature I appreciate. IME, lemmy also tends to attract more memes and shitposts, which generally turn me off.
I like the forum-style posts and #microblogging integration. The local community has also been pleasant to engage with so far. I’ve been running two magazines and lately have been seeing some federated Mastodon posts show up in one of the magazines I run. It’s nice to have an area akin to a daily discussion thread which lets me engage with the different parts of the #fediverse.

Came here with this show in mind. Would recommend.
