YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content
Because they don't get listed by browse.feddit.de you'll want to browse https://kbin.social/magazines to browse "magazines", which is what they call communities
e.g. [email protected]
or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration
Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @[email protected] over the past few days.
You're viewing a single thread.
So I'm looking for a magazine that I know is on kbin, that I want to subscribe from here. I've tried typing in the magazine name in the address bar (lemmy.world/c/[email protected]), I've tried searching in the "communities" search, and I'm just not finding it and getting errors. Direct linking works, but I then I can only subscribe if I have an account on kbin. Help?
- paste the full target url in search from lemmy, e.g.
https://kbin.social/m/Utah - now it's available at [email protected]
Ah ha, I was trying to do the short url ([email protected]), and that wasn't working. Thanks!
I was doing the same thing! This is awesome. Thank you CodingAndCoffee!
kbin currently has a bug with the
[email protected]syntax. Your link becomeshttps://kbin.social/c/[email protected], which isn't valid (should be https://kbin.social/m/Utah). It's a little weird because while thec/part is what we'd expect if it was a Lemmy sub, it still shouldn't be repeating the domain. I'm sure that'll be fixed shortly, though. Maybe I'll go dig into the code myself.At any rate, the
@[email protected]syntax should work in kbin. I'm unclear if it works for Lemmy. Here's a link so you can try it: @UtahEDIT: filed https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/199
Other Fediverse systems use the syntax
@[email protected].So, I am on lemmy.one and I go to search communities, and paste https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration and nothing comes up. Am I doing something wrong?
No, that's the correct way to do it.
Hm, still nothing comes up if I search for the whole link.
But, if I search for just "RedditMigration", it shows up.
Do you know how/if I can subscribe to their main page?
