@[email protected] when I joined Pixelfed, I was able to use my fosstodon.org account. Do any of the MBin instance allow that type of cross service authentication yet?
Apprently, yes. Haven't tested it (yet). Btw you are on a kbin instance. Fyi, Mbin is a community fork that superseded kbin with new features (more info on the link's homepage...)
@[email protected] are you referring to kbin.melroy.org? Don't let the DNS fool you. Like most Kbin instances, kbin.melroy.org is now running Mbin. In fact, kbin.melroy.org is run be the developer leading the Mbin project. My understanding from following a bitnofnthe Kbin/Mbin drama was that Melroy tried contributing to Kbin, but found Earnest unwilling to collaborate or delegate. If you look at https://fedidb.org/software/mbin, you'll see many of the large instances that launched with kbin in the URL are actually running Mbin now.
