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.
I tried joining some kbin magazines from here (E.G: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] and https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] ). It did work but I’m unable to see any post from those communities. Instead the one you linked ( https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] ) works perfectly (even for newest posts/comments). Is there any fix ? EDIT: To add more troubleshooting info, It doesn’t say pending, it correctly says “joined” but still no posts.
Does this mean you are posting this on lemmy.world and I am reading it on kbin?
For those of us new to the fediverse, this is so exciting!
Is looking at the username how you can tell where a post is coming from? I was so confused a while ago with posts saying “something something fellow Beehaw users!” and it was marked as (kbin.social) lol.
Now I’m curious, can KBin users be mods on Lemmy instances, and can Lemmy users moderate Kbin magazines?

@[email protected] replying to myself from mastodon!
How…? I think my head just exploded. 🤯
What is a reddit thread if not a root tweet with a bunch of replies (and replies to the replies) formatted in a way that you see the organization of the replies?
I like this idea and the Mastedon app seems much faster to post… that’s really my only wish list item from lemmy right now. I’m figuring that’s a temporary imbalance of increase activity and server bandwidth/speed? I understand we are decentralized but so is Mastodon and at least my instance is very smooth and fast.
I can’t speak to Lemmy’s implementation (I refuse to go near lemmy on account of the maintainers “politics”), but there’s nothing fundamental about threading that should make posting slower.
Loading threads here is… different… work than loading your feed in mastodon, it’s possibly slower, but posting is from a theoretical standpoint the same. Probably you’re just seeing the effect of your lemmy instance not running on sufficient hardware (very understandable given the explosion in user space size).
Can you elaborate on the ‘politics’?
I sense something weird , especially with the hardcoded ‘hate speech’ filter, which seems to run contrary to federation.
Anything else I should know about ?
The broad strokes are here: https://mstdn.social/@feditips/106835057054633379
In addition to the more important issues that fedi-tips discusses I find their stance on anti-vax and US-election conspiracy theories… unappealing, which you can see being discussed here: https://lemmy.ml/post/143057
And that they haven’t been shy about exerting their power for political purposes. The hardcoded slur-filter was explicitly about discouraging “right wingers” (I put that in quotes because I suspect their definition of right wing and mine differ), and they at least use to be open about their intentions to moderate the instances that they run as explicitly “left wing” (though I don’t see a reference to that on the current site).
So anyway to make the app Jerboa work with kbin?
I’m replying to this on Jerboa right now, so I would assume there’s a way, yeah.
But you’re using a Lemmy account to post, I’m confused…?
Wait
Ah, I’ve misinterpreted, I first saw this post on kbin, but it’s a Lemmy post, so of course I can see it on Lemmy.
In that case I dunno. Will kbin posts be viewable on Lemmy, since the reverse is now possible?
Update: I seem to have found a way to view AskKbin on Lemmy/Jerboa, though only a few posts are actually showing up. Is this even intended behavior?

AFAIK posts only sync from the moment the first person on your instance subscribes
This is great but I am still unable to search for communities in kbin. At least I tried [email protected] and [email protected] a few time the last few minutes but still no result.
I haven’t been able to join Kbin magazines by searching in the !magazine@instance format, but when I just paste the URL from Kbin into the search I’ve been able to add them that way.
Any help? I’ve joined a magazine from lemmy and nothing shows up, but I have a kbin account too and know there’s posts I’m not seeing.
It’s probably just because you were the first user to subscribe to it at sopuli.xyz
According to your server’s nodeinfo there’s only 462 users active this month.
I don’t know if that’s bad or good. Is there a way to fix it?
Now that you’re subscribed, all new content will flow to your server. You just need to be patient 😊
Thank you!
@serfraser @youshouldknow What’s happening? Are you on an instance and want to see everyone’s comments/post on other instances? What client are you using? Are you on the website? Are you on desktop ?
Mobile, using Lemmy site to view a kbin Magazine that appears empty and says “no posts” but when I check on kbin I can see that’s not true
Jerboa seems to crash when clicking links with the ! point but I can do it from the desktop browser. This is great!
Smoothest crash ever tho!
