What are you talking about? The context is the community the post is posted into. The federated experience is that you explore any posts, threads, or communities from any instance. If I have a community called [email protected], do you want me to post "New table-top news!" in every single post title just to make it clear? This post was posted to a community for discussing sh.itjust.works. If your app isn't showing you that information, that's a bug, not an issue with posters. Imagine if every post didn't show what community it was from, what poster posted it, or what it was in response to, but only if you used a particular app. Would you get huffy at other users for not copy and pasting every comment they were replying to into their own comment because you needed to ask for the context and provenance from every user directly? I'm sorry if the people in the community for discussing sh.itjust.works are a little annoyed that there's a huge controversy at a large number of users from one particular instance not knowing it wsa for discussing sh.itjust.works because kbin doesn't show what communities posts come from. But it's a very active community, and putting "In regards to sh.itjust.works:" in every title would be like if you wanted to required every post to [email protected] be labeld "[News]"
