Aren’t communities federated or not on a instance by instance basis, though? Did I get that wrong?

Yeah, used the link to access it in the browser from my lemmy account and subscribed. It showed up in sync shortly after

No, I’m logged in. And it’s a small enough instance that I’m sure nobody’s messing with it or defederating it.

Is sync relying on lemmy.world even when my home instance is somewhere else? Doesn’t make sense to me, but I’m not familiar with the sync architecture

Strangely, this might be a bug. The community is on kbin.social, which my home instance is definitely federated with. Searching through the history of my kbin account from lemmy shows no posts or comments to that one specific community (!WanderingInn @kbin.social). @ljdawson, any clue about this?

Actually, doesn’t seem to be an option in kbin

Yes, it is. Thanks, I’ll try that

What’s the difference between lemmy and kbin, as far as Sync is concerned? I don’t mean APIs, but in terms of user experience, what would change for me coming over from kbin?
