        Wait … how is that link working?? kbin.social has been offline for months.

        Edit: Ohhhh … the name of the community at LW is “eattherich@kbin.social” - now I see.

          No, you’re right the 1st time. It’s eattherich, hosted at kbin. It’s a weird side effect of federating. The original instance hosting the comm is gone, but all posts and comments go into the local instance first (in this case, Ozma’s posts to .world) to be federated back to the main instance (kbin). Since kbin is gone, that federation ain’t happening, and nobody from any other instance can view the content from their home instance. But you can directly view .world’s local copy of what it thinks the instance should look like, which contains all of Ozma’s contributions.

            This is super cool

            I don’t think we’ve yet witnessed the full benefits of the distributed nature/federation.
