I quite enjoy how microblogging is integrated in kbin.social at the moment. It brings life to smaller communities, and connects us with the Fediverse at large.
For example, /m/gardening only has 12 threads at the moment, but since the microblog follows #gardening there are hundreds of posts in the microblog; several of which are from the last hour.
It’s not perfect yet (if you open gardening@kbin.social from another kbin instance you won’t see microblogs using the hashtag) and it’s not for everyone, but to me at least it’s a great bridge between kbin and the microblogging universe. :)
@ernest It says “Provide only if you want content from the fediverse to be included in this magazine based on tags”. But if a user post a thread in the magazine, will it then also use the tags to basically “cross-post”? Or is it just getting/retrieving (instead of also pushing).

The magazine owner can also add other hashtags such as #flowers #garden ;)
