Now that federation works, we need more clarity of source (kbin.social)

I'm seeing the federated content, but it's hard to tell where the content came from. Currently, the only reliable way to see the source is by reading the URL when you're viewing a thread. It doesn't work well on mobile though and it doesn't work for the feed.

How work everyone feel if the magazine included the source always? So instead of saying kbinMeta, you'd see [email protected]? Or would you prefer another solution?

When fascists (including tankies) run instances, they purge people who disagree with them, just as in "real life" - so instances run by fascists and tankies are going to be full of fascists and tankies.

If kbin is drowned out and perma-brigaded by tankies then the tankies win, but everyone else loses.

If you're going to federate with fascists and tankies, it always matters to have that context front and center: "this thread/message comes directly from fascist/tankie central"
