The worst part of Reddit for me were the redditors. It was better 10 years ago when it was much smaller. I leave my federation off to avoid the noise of every other instance and enjoy the smaller community.

I leave it on, and it hasn't occurred to me to try turning it off. I'm not sure why I'd want it off.

I have it off by default and turn it on when I want some other content.

Same here.

I leave it off so that I end up with less duplicates in my feed. I got tired of seeing the same exact articles / posts clogging up my feed from 20 different instances. The only time I go out of kbins instance is for askelectronics really.

To the left of the gear symbol which is your settings is the federation icon. Click on that and the Federation menu with the status (On | Off) will show up.

I know how ... I was wondering how often people use it. Do they leave it off? Leave it on? Switch ... if so, how often.

Oh, I'm sorry. My brain passed over the "often". My bad.

I haven't turned it off at all yet.

Sometimes brains be that way!

To be honest, I would like some sort of notation on posts to let me know when I'm clicking on something from a different instance. I always have to check it after the fact. Most of the time I don't think it matters to much (to me), but with my swiss cheese brain I can get confused in threads which start talking about kbin/lemmy differences.

Edit: ah, might just be a glitch on mobile. I moved to my computer and there actually is the text telling me where it's from.

I haven't either, I enjoy the federated aspect and follow quite a few lemmy communities.
