Duplicate Pages Across Fediverse (kbin.social)

So I notice that KBIN and BEEHAW and LEMMY all have duplicate pages dedicated to the same content. Are we as a community going to have to decide which page will be the 'main' page, will we have to subscribe to each magazine for each instance, or will they consolidate eventually?

So like, theres a technology@beehaw, a technology@lemmy, and a tech for kbin. Does it make sense to spend time cultivating one, if another ends up getting more attention?

Can I subscribe to something on Lemmy and read it from kbin?

Subscribe to it on your kbin account

How do you do this?

Ok so for example, if you wanted to subscribe to the technology group on Lemmy you would just type technology@lemmy.ml into the search bar on Kbin and click the subscribe button. You can then also do the same for technology@beehaw.org and they will all show up on your Kbin feed.

Or just find a post that is already on that place, click the community/magazine name to go to its landing page, and click the subscribe button -- realistically, this is going to be the workflow for most.

Odds are if you are interested in subscribing to content on another instance, it is because that content already went under your nose and you liked how it smelled. Click click is very intuitive.
