I had a candidate actually do that for a similar problem.

They were like 15 classes in to generate fibonacci numbers, it was wild.

It’s an open protocol so it’s very much doable.

That makes sense, from what I’ve seen kbin integrates with mastodon as well (I think you can even set it up so some mastodon hashtags get included in their versions of communities)

I think that’s true for mastodon, but I suspect it’s going to be way less true for Reddit

Twitter’s value proposition is roughly “one big giant conversation with everyone” and the federation stuff adds some complexity to that.

Reddit already acted like a federation. There are ui and discoverability issues but they seem very solvable.
