Is kbin.social still having federation issues? (kbin.social)

I ask because I made an account on https://lemmy.zip and the kbin.social magazines there seems to have incomplete contents. e.g. [email protected] there only have one thread from 25 days ago. [email protected] there seemed more up-to-date but number of comments are still less than what I can see directly on kbin.social.

Another indication of trouble is that when I try to subscribe to a kbin.social magazine (like [email protected]) it is stuck on Subscribe Pending seemingly forever and does not transition to subscribed/joined status.

At first I thought it is a configuration problem on lemmy.zip or some recent version Lemmy incompatibility with kbin, but I was able to subscribe to [email protected] there fine and it seems to be getting updated contents.

So somehow traffic is not flowing smoothly between kbin.social and lemmy.zip.

@ernest, I hate to bother you but are you seeing something like this with other instances?

I'm not sure but it feels like I see a lot more content from a larger number of communities when I browse from my Lenny.world account. When I browse from a kbin.social account I don't think I see as many different posts from different instances or communities.

I have a similar experience, this and the wefwef app have made me to primarily browse from lemmy.world for the past couple days

Yes I did that to try out the apps too. wefwef/Voyager is very nice and is being updated frequently and getting new features. Memmy is pretty good too. Lemmy.world was a bit sluggish before they fixed it that’s why I was trying out a less busy instance.

When Artemis for kbin comes out I’d like to check it out too.

That’s my impression as well.

The admins probably has a lot on their hands but I hope they get around to fixing federation.
