Wanted to say it’s pretty cool to see how fast this place has grown in just the past few days and it’s starting to really feel like what Reddit used to be in the good ol days.

    I might not 100% grasp how this all works yet, but I signed up for lemmy.world and I’m talking to you here on Memmy. Is kbin not supposed to be connected to other instances?

      It absolutely is connected! I’m replying to you from kbin.social.

      But kbin is different software, and will need a different app to access.

      It’s not that we all can’t talk to eachother, but rather that Memmy has no idea how to login and interact with Kbin, but it DOES know how to login and interact with Lemmy.

      Sharing posts between instances is handled by, well, your instance. It’d be really slow if each user had to share posts with eachother like a Torrent or something :P
