update:

- The kbin.social server is now federating with the Fediverse. You can follow/interact with kbin.social magazines & users from other Kbin servers, Mastodon & rest of the Fediverse. For example the TIL magazine is at @TodayILearned, the lead dev of Kbin is at @ernest

- There's a new Kbin server at readit.buzz which is run by the same people as the Universodon.com Mastodon server. It's open for signups, just click "log in" and then "register".

@feditips @ernest @TodayILearned are there reasons to run a separate instance to log in with? It'd definitely be cool to log into existing instances with my federated ID but being able to sub is still good!

@KayOhtie

A Fediverse account only lets you log in on the server where you signed up.

However, your server communicates with other servers, which lets you interact with accounts, threads and groups across the Fediverse.

Running your own server lets you choose which other servers you federate with, what the rules are, who gets banned etc.

@feditips Aye, I know that's the case with Mastodon, have been running blimps.xyz since 2018, I just wasn't sure how stuff was working with kbin and similar. I'll have to look into them, especially if either supports SSO via OAuth/OIDC, so I could potentially run an instance for my users on here ^^

FediTips has moved!

Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to patronise. 😳

@feditips you're fine! I think it was just confusion, I didn't know if there was something similar to the chat login on Owncast or such hehe
