I thought Mastodon is part of fedeverse, but I do not see any threads or microblogs from mastodon here. Why?

    @MxM111 From what I’ve read, kbin magazine mods can specify hashtags for their magazines and then micro-blog content (like from Mastodon) that uses those hash-tags will show up in the Microblog for that magazine. Or people can manually create a new post in the Microblog section of a magazine. I don’t think there’s any other way for content from Mastodon (or any of the other fediverse microblogs) to show up in kbin. And Lemmy doesn’t have that feature at all, so people seeing this from Lemmy are probably confused by the entire topic.

    @MxM111Its wierd mastodn and kbin and lemmy are part of the fediverse but each has a different look feel and software on each instance. Mastodon is microblogging like Twitter. Kbin is microblogging threads (like reddit) and subs ,(magazine’s) like reddit. Like I was saying mastodon can see kbin and Lemmy’s toots and reply etc. This where it gets weird. On the fediverse you can follow other people and you will see there toots but that’s it you can’t see th front page like you do in kbin just the toots from people. On kbin and lemmy they have an actual interface that it looks like you are interacting in real time to the other instance but you aren’t really. It’s confusing but you will get it. Give it a couple of days. If you want a more reddit like feel use lemmy and kbin if you want a more Twitter like experience use Mastodon

      @est Is there an equivalent of Posts with links on Mastodon? Or is it only like twitter text-posts?
