Is there an easy way to see if something is an instance or community on the fediverse, or ‘just’ a forum on the web? For instance, would it always be mentioned in a sidebar? I know there are lists of instances, but i am hoping for something easier. I might be overlooking something glaringly obvious, but i thought i would ask.

    Well, it would be nice if they had something like a setting that is activated by default to show they are part of the federation and when they would want to hide it, to switch it off. I don’t know, not a programmer. You bring up an interesting point though; i did not think of the fediverse as just a way of building your own forum. Thanks for your input
