How does this federation thing works? I have an account here, if I want to follow a magazine on another instance can I do it? Will it show in my "front page"? Could I do it for lemmys instances and "sublemmys"?

@tigerjerusalem Yes! Check out @gaming for example of a lemmy.ml community that you can see/subscribe to/post on here on kbin. It works exactly like kbin magazines. Federation is a bit broken right now though with the influx of people so it's not quite syncing properly right now. but yes, that's how it works.
