Is there really a reason, for example, for there to be the distinction of “magazine” and “community”? When you’re federating, the same features should be called the same, if close enough. That way everyone can talk with everyone about stuff and we all immediately understand each other.

Would also alleviate confusion for any new adopters.

^I’m pretty sure this is going to be impossible though, since each sides egos will likely get in the way :D^

    there’s no need really, for new adopters or if you’re planning to bring someone to the fediverse, simply do not mention anything about it being federated and just direct them to your preferred instances (in this case, kbin). Let them just learn kbin for a while before introducing the interconnected instances.

      Problem is you can easily click your way into another instance, seems to be a bit more of a problem on Lemmy though rather than Kbin
