I keep seeing posts from Lemmy or Beehaw instances, but the “from” label seems to cut off part of the full name. For example, a post “chat@beehaw.org” will just show “from Chat,” and I can’t tell it’s a Beehaw instance unless I click on it and scroll to the bottom of all of the comments to see all the information that identifies it as a Beehaw instance. Is there a way to be able to see this information without having to do all that scrolling?

Edit: it also gets more confusing that some posts will straight up say “kbin.social” next to the post title even if they were posted in a different instance. I don’t understand why this happens.

      They are different applications (how you read the messages) and servers (where your account is based) , but can share federated content.
