Hello, quick question about the interconnection between instances in the fediverse. I now have my account here on kbin.social and I have also created an account on mastodon.social some while ago that I've reactivated now since the reddit blackout. I have read that kbin can access mastodon, so do I need a Mastodon account at all? Can I possibly log in to Mastodon through my kbin.social account and use the Mastodon interface when I feel like it?

Also another thing: would this question better fit into the threads section or is it fine here with the microblog?

Hello. This kbin-specific FAQ might be helpful. This is the link on kbin.social for the local copy on that instance,

Thank you and cheers!

@dannekrose Thanks a lot for the reply, I already read your FAQ in fact :D The thing I don't get yet, is how I access e. g. Mastodon.social while being logged into kbin.social do I just search for a mastodon.social user and if yes, where do I do this?

Edit: I finally found out that I just can add @user@instance behind kbin.social/u/ for example. Now I feel dumb that this took so long :D I'm amazed that it just works like this.
