Kbin.social turning federation back on "soon"
(kbin.social)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

@solberg @Barbarian It's more of you can message someone from somewhere else. Think of it like a mobile network, mastodon is t-mobile, kbin at&t and lemmy sprint ... you can talk to anyone you want but pay your bill in one place. Same with the fedi you have one home but can talk to anyone who federates with you or speaks your language ... in this case ActivityPub
Is it kind of like KBin, Lemmy, and Mastodon are the frontends to ActivityPub which is the backend? But I wouldn’t be able to sign into “Mastodon” with my Lemmy account or vice versa, right?
