So much unprecedented stuff has happened since his term, but I don’t think anyone was ever confident he would actually stand trial for a federal jury.

I think a Reddit type platform lends itself better to federation than something like Twitter. Reddit is already split up into sub communities so it’s easier to digest vs. Mastadon/Twitter meant to be one big conversation.
Your question about non-technical savoy folks being on here is valid and there’s probably not many. But Reddit also started out like that and it took many years before it became mainstream. Federated serves are a new thing, even for the technological literate, so I suspect it will take a while to permeate into casual internet users but it will happen in the future.
As far as I’ve understood, it should be possible, but right now Kbin has cloudflare’s DDOS protection and their configuration is disabling the federation to other instances. It’s apparently something they are working to fix so hopefully we get connected back up soon.
