Kbin's odd, Is it a mix of Mastodon and Lemmy in one?
From what I understand, "Magazines" are Communities/Subreddits, "Threads" are posts in those Magazines, and Microblogs are the comments in those Threads? But you can Boost posts?
I'm curious how cross posting works between Mastodon/Kbin
As far as I can tell, "boosting" is like an upvote that carries across instances. The regular upvote/downvotes stay on Kbin. I haven't even touched the "microblog" thing yet because I have no idea how to use it. But the rest is spot on.
Just tested posting on Kbin, it seems Boosting is singular to Kbin. Voting acts the same and shows the same number, boosting doesnt affect the vote count.
Maybe it's more meant for integration with Mastodon.
Unless I'm wrong, any Kbinners are welcome to correct me
Thanks for the correction.
