Is it more rational than only federating once they've proven that it'll be fine? (instead of waiting for them to prove they're not)

Mastodon.world said they won't pre-emptively defederate (but are prepared to do so as soon as they notice something bad), so I'm guessing lemmy.world has the same stance

The @ thing is Threads, Facebook's Twitter clone

This is awesome! Hopefully it'll help spread the load among instances. Definitely going to use this to see which instance to move to (and which to avoid)

Ironically, the trouble you're having with subscribing is because you're on Kbin. On Lemmy you can just click the links in the post

Can you give an example outside American politics?

I don't really agree, Lemmy made sure that posts+comments show up in Mastodon and that Mastodon users can post+comment to Lemmy.

More compatibility would be great though.

No way, are you the k_o_t?

5% of Reddit is colossal compared to Lemmy's current numbers. I think even 0.1% would be very noticeable.
