I’ve subscribed to the .zip backup, and my (virtual) bags are packed and at the door.
I did notice that @Neon_Carnivore’s comment on the .zip announcement doesn’t appear from lemmy.ml though, 8 hours later. Are we sure that instance is federating any better than kbin.social is, or is lemmy.ml the issue here?
I made this kbin alt just to browse because the delay federating with lemmy got so bad, so maybe it’s a partially both kinda fault.
So essentially, federation of posts should slowly become less of an issue over time, but comments may possibly remain just as poor as ever because an instance might not be aware of certain users on other instances?
If this is federation implemented correctly, federation is dumb.
