@Blakerboy777 Yeah i can see that reasoning as well. microblogs are more in-line with a quick comment. whereas threads feel more 'heavy'. though keep in mind that I think the microblog section of magazines are technically "unofficial" in that your microblog post is essentially a post on your account that is unsorted for most fediverse people and so the expectation is that it might be less related to the kbin magazine you're posting in. "explicit community" vs "happened to be related to the topic" for example.

Thank you two for your replies, I think I get the thing with threads and posts now. But how would I e. g. follow someone from mastodon through kbin if federation will work in the future? Just as an example.
@Rayspekt so since my post federation has started working! how you follow someone is you just go to their profile (click on their name) and then click "follow". You can also hover over their name and it'll pop up the option as well. this works for following users wherever they might be hosted on the fediverse.

Hello. This kbin-specific FAQ might be helpful. This is the link on kbin.social for the local copy on that instance,

Thank you and cheers!
@dannekrose Thanks a lot for the reply, I already read your FAQ in fact :D The thing I don't get yet, is how I access e. g. Mastodon.social while being logged into kbin.social do I just search for a mastodon.social user and if yes, where do I do this?
Edit: I finally found out that I just can add @user@instance behind kbin.social/u/ for example. Now I feel dumb that this took so long :D I'm amazed that it just works like this.
