this was super helpful. Thank you for making this
Thank you! This clears up so many questions I had
Newb to the fediverse here. This graphic is really helpful. One, probably dumb, question: where does something like kbin.social fall into this? Is it part of the fediverse or a different *verse?

This is an excellent illustration!
Should have mentioned a bit about defederation in that image as well
Might I suggest a “single column” version as well, for the folks on mobile devices? 😁
Where does kbin fit with lemmy? Is it a competitor? I see a lot of posts pointing to lemmy communities. Can people create new kbin communities like lemmy?
Kbin reminds me of slashdot, maybe it’s the UI
Thanks for asking this!
I set up accounts on both in the hysteria of leaving reddit.
I think I get how the various lemmys work/interact, I just don’t know how Kbin fits into the picture.
I am just using my laptop, not on mobile devices yet.
Third day here, so still learning and giving lots of time and patience for the dust to settle
Picture needs to be updated: it shows too many connections with Beehaw.

Awesome stuff!! Hero’s work!!
This is so well done!
Thank you, this is very well made and covers all the basic questions!
I’d also like to add that you can get very cool usernames by joining smaller instances, since usernames don’t have to be unique between instances ;)
Yeah, that’s true.
I like how the portmanteau visual for fediverse is a car crash lmao
I find that comparing it to email makes it click the fastest. Everyone knows that you can email someone no matter which email provider they use.
