Sorry if this has already been asked, but is there a way to know if kbin is or is not federated with another instance? I know there is a way to block domains by typing in https://your kbin instance/d/domain you want to block and blocking them from there, but is there a way to see a list of instances defederated by default?
Thanks
Kbin federates upvotes but does not federate downvotes. All downvotes are from people on the local instance only.
Lemmy federates both but downvotes only go to other Lemmy instances, not Kbin instances.
It’s all a bit crazy, yes.
Ah that explains such a lot!
Several times now I’ve been puzzled by Lemmings talking about their downvotes when I can’t see any.
Right? Same. “All these downvotes” and I’m like fam, what are you on about? I see nothing
I wonder now if this is part of what makes kbin so chill.
Most of us hardly ever downvote each other because our downvotes are public.
But on the lemmys, if they’re all downvoting each other (and us) like crazy, we would never even know about it.
people complaining about downvotes always have so many upvotes. it is like begging.
i always find it very strange when someone edits a comment 15 mins after posting to direct a complaint to like 1 person who downvoted them. do they just sit there refreshing the page until the number changes?
