    Their heart was at the right place… But they didn’t really understand federation huh. Splitting their communities like that is asking for less engagement and more user confusion. Just create it on Lemmy, interact with it using your Kbin user, and then it will federate and you can still provide the Kbin link if you so desire.

      It was intentional. They didn’t 100% like either site so they made a community on both. They are seeing which they prefer after some use and development.

      Everyone here is acting like they’re idiots who don’t understand the internet. They were high level mods.

        I knew it was intentional - it’s not like they pressed the wrong key and accidentally spawned a new community on a different site.

        What I’m discussing is that the idea is fundamentally flawed, even if their intentions were good. If they are testing which one they prefer, creating a single community and federating is still the best option.

        That’s… Not as impressive sounding as you believe it is.
