I’m not new to fedi but I’m still trying to understand federation with these new projects.
I can sub to magazines/communities hosted elsewhere.
Can I also post there? I see them offered in the dropdown on this composition page so it seems like I can.
To be clear, I’m talking about posting to them with my current account, on kbin.social. Not going and making an account there.
Do you mean like another kbin instance? I haven’t tried to connect with another instance, but when you attempt to start a post/thread/link [etc] it usually tries to create it in the magazine you are currently in.
What instance are you attempting it on?
Edit: Looks like it works fine - Just make sure to navigate to the instance+magazine you want to post in, and the + button will add your submission in that place. Syntax for viewing/posting on another instance within your current account; treat it like a magazine, with the domain name added:
Interesting, thanks. I don’t see it when I look there though.

So maybe it’s still local but it’s being attributed to a remote magazine?
I’m also asking about remote Lemmy communities but I’m not sure if it matters or not, so my question may only apply to remote Kbin instances
