    Federation is not perfect between kbin and lemmy. On kbin instances, if the server pulls some federated content that it isn’t quite sure what to do with, it drops it into m/random. Same thing happens if it’s missing any sort of meta data AFAIK

      Would it resort it into the original posted area if it later grabs the metadata, or is the push a one time thing?

      • AFAIK it doesn’t go back and update old posts. So if the connection is fixed and the bridge between these two services is rock solid, everything before that won’t be changed. It will only affect future posts.

          In retrospect that makes sense, the last thing we want is a recursive effort to try and update things all the time.

    Might be something acting up with the federation. I think kbin.social enabled Cloudflare, which is blocking some parts of the federation scripts, leading to broken pulls like this. Don’t worry about it on your end, there’s nothing we lemmings can really do about it.
