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.

2 0 ReplyThe link works for me currently. Someone else must have triggered federation for you.
2 0 ReplyThank you! It's working for me now too.
I'm still not getting how to force an instance to federate tho. I think I followed the instructions properly. Here's what I did.
- I went to the link posted: https://lemmy/world/c/[email protected]. That clearly didn't work at first.
- Clicking on "Communities"
- Searching for "[email protected]" (found no results)
- Searching for "kbin" which found [email protected]
- Went to [email protected] and was able to navigate it without any problems
- Went back to Communities and searched for "autism" which didn't find [email protected] again.
What step did I miss?
1 0 ReplyThe instructions you should have followed would have been:
- go to https://lemmy.world/search
- paste in the kbin magazine url
https://kbin.social/m/austim
- hit search

1 0 ReplyNah this is NOT on you. It's objectively confusing right now.

Lemmy instances don't pull content (and make the link work) until someone searches for the relevant community.
