Lemmy has been running for 4 years (don't know how long they developed it before releasing the first beta), Kbin barely for 2 months. Just putting that out there! Love both though.
Make sure you didn’t accidentally switch to the non-federated view (you can find this federation toggle if you click the triangle icon next to the UI settings icon).
I definitely have the federation option on, I've even looked in a different browser just in case the setting was stuck off and was glitched, and the newest sort still only has articles from kbin.social or occasionally a federated magazine but from a kbin.social user. Do you see a lot of posts from other instances in your newset tab?
I had to scroll a bit but I did come across some (1-2 hr old) posts from Beehaw and the such eventually. It did seem a bit harder to find these with the newest tab as opposed to the other sorting options, but that might just be coincidence.
Looking at newest on kbin.social there are times where its multiple minutes between articles, if federation was working correctly that would rarely happen now, much less constantly since I made this post last night
One way to validate this is go to a lemmy community, (asklemmy@lemmy.ml for example). Currently I see a 5h gap where the most recent on from Jerboa Iis 20min ago.
