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. !RedditMigration@kbin.social

or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration

Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @ernest@kbin.social over the past few days.

This is great but I am still unable to search for communities in kbin. At least I tried !politics@kbin.social and !opensource@kbin.social 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 😊

@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

I tried joining some kbin magazines from here (E.G: https://lemmy.world/c/Aquariums@kbin.social and https://lemmy.world/c/houseplants@kbin.social ). It did work but I’m unable to see any post from those communities. Instead the one you linked ( https://lemmy.world/c/RedditMigration@kbin.social ) 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.

Jerboa seems to crash when clicking links with the ! point but I can do it from the desktop browser. This is great!

This is being worked on on the Jerboa github. Sounds like it’ll be addressed or at least mostly addressed in the next release.

My home Lemmy doesn’t seem to be able to find communities on kbin, when I search for something like !tech@kbin.social it just never resolves. :-/

Try pasting the browser url as it is in kbin, instead of using the Lemmy syntax. I know it’s goofy but it works.

Neither seems to work for me, maybe federation is overloaded with the sudden influx? I’ll report back if it ends up working.

You Should Know

!youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Create post

YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)

Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you’re a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.

Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post’s text body, you must include the reason “Why” YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **

Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.

Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.

Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.

Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated.

Partnered Communities:

You can view our partnered communities list by following this link. To partner with our community and be included, you are free to message the moderators or comment on a pinned post.

Community Moderation

For inquiry on becoming a moderator of this community, you may comment on the pinned post of the time, or simply shoot a message to the current moderators.
