I would like to have a “Local” filter to only show kbin magazines. It would be listed with “Subscribed”, “All”, etc. That way I could filter without tuning Federation off in the settings.

    Thanks. So, if I I turn federation off and comment on a kbin thread, will federation users outside of kbin still be able to interact with it?

      This hasn’t been documented (and I haven’t tested), but I’m fairly certain that on user level you can’t block your comments and posts from getting federated with other instances. That would be instance-admin level settings.

      The federation on/off button should only hide federated content from you, but I’m not sure if it even applies to the stuff that has already been loaded into your feed, as I still see some content from other instances if I turn it off, but could be due to other kbin users who have commented on the thread so you’d only see kbin users comments.

      Still waiting for bit more documentation on kbin, but I’m sure a lot of it will change as ernest and other contributors work on the code.
