Kbin support? (lemmy.world)

submitted 8 months ago by audricd to c/voyagerapp

9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hello,

I have seen mentioned in some comments that this app has kbin support. Is that true?

I can see kbin posts through federation. But I am not able to add a kbin instance through the app or log into one.

I would love to see that happening!

Thank you!

Yeah I didn't see it on the readme either but on forums posts promoting the application (not from developers that I know of). I suppose that misled me.

I am aware they are two different backend but still, I am pretty sure it's possible. Maybe not easy, but I bet it would be possible. For instance, take a look at fedilab. You can see, and interact with mastodon, lemmy, pleroma, friendica and even peertube.

Yeah it's definitely possible but it means you're supporting multiple APIs and the main dev(s?) for Voyager may not want to take on the extra responsibility. You could always PR it in though :)

I assume that if you created a Lemmy account and subscribed to all the kbin communities (magazines?) you were interested in that would mostly cover you? I think the federation works?

Does Kbin have any other functionality there that wouldn't work?
