Mastodon: @confusedbunny
Yes, my Mastodon username mentions bunnies, yet the bunny avatar is on this profile, and the Lemming which might indicate Lemmy (this is Kbin, but I am subbed to Lemmy communities) is over there. Don’t question.

I think that would be annoying!
I find it useful. I follow my Kbin account from Mastodon, anything I boost I then see there - and can boost it to Mastodon easily.
If people followed my Kbin account and I used it as my main for everything, then boost would be useful without the double boosting.
You don’t really need to, as everything you can do on Mastodon you can do on Kbin - and more.
Go to the settings cog, and toggle the media preview on (or compare the pane in both browsers to see what is different)
I assume you didn’t specifically mention me with the fedia.io domain… yet here I am. So that appears to be a bug as Kbin notified me.
That’s the correct one, just hit subscribe. The comments won’t match as it only counts the ones after somebody first subscribed from your instance (I think). Either way, due to federation the numbers quite often are different, it’s best to use them as a guide only. The numbers on the home instance’s community should be the correct ones.
The last bit is not strictly true - if you delete a post/comment it will federate the deletion so it will (should) delete everywhere. Any hosts which are off-line or later defederated might still keep a copy of it though, or a user client may have it cached. “Be careful with what you write” is always good advice regardless!
In theory, anybody you follow you should see their new threads in Threads on the Subscribed view, and their new microblog posts in the Subscribed/Microblogs view. I am not convinced it actually works for Threads - and it may not work for microblogs either.
Certainly following Mastodon users shows their posts under Subs/Microblogs.
Following Lemmy users should show their posts in the Threads view (as above, not sure if this works).
Boosts should show up as a new post “boosted by” in either Threads or Microblogs depending on what it originally was - but this appears to be unimplemented.
Yes, it didn’t appear to recognise the second + though.
I think I managed a checkmate and it still wasn’t happy!
So you can see what they post and boost! It’s possibly more for following Mastodon accounts, so you’ll see these in the microblog. Following kbin users from Mastodon works well too, you’ll see all threads, posts and comments.
Tried twice, got stuck on the chess notation each time, even though I thought the move I was putting in was pretty good, it obviously wasn’t the best.
For posts, you just need to go to subs and then microblog. Unless you mean threads, in which case I think they will show up on the main subs view (although I haven’t tested this). Comments I don’t think show up in subs - it only shows threads. If you go to their profile you can see them though. Maybe a feature request to add a Comments section to the top header?
I strongly suspect it’s a timezone bug in kbin. fedia.io is hosted in Germany (I think) which will be GMT+2, which would explain the two hours difference if it isn’t converting back to GMT/UTC on the timestamps. Does this happen on kbin.social too? That would help determine if it’s a kbin bug or just configuration on fedia.io.
