I’m seeing the federated content, but it’s hard to tell where the content came from. Currently, the only reliable way to see the source is by reading the URL when you’re viewing a thread. It doesn’t work well on mobile though and it doesn’t work for the feed.
How work everyone feel if the magazine included the source always? So instead of saying kbinMeta, you’d see kbinMeta@kbin.social? Or would you prefer another solution?
It’s not about tying your identity to a site, it’s about respecting the community you’re posting in. Magazines aren’t just tags, they are spaces with their own moderators and rules. That’s why it was important to know which sub you were in on Reddit and it’s no different here.
I don’t need to know where a user is from but I do need to know the source of the post.
