Japanese Metal

A community dedicated to Japanese Rock and Metal.

Since we're metalheads, we're civilized and don't need extensive rules -- hopefully. For now, the only rule is:

Partnered communities:

Metal Community
Japanese Music
Queens of the Stone Age

founded 1 year ago
MODERATORS
 

So I went and checked out several instances, including Kbin. It seems that some of them can't even find our community when searching for it directly using the Community Finder, and our posts don't pop up in their feeds.

Amazed we still have so many subscribers here, but I feel this hinders our growth (and therefore the content posted here) a lot.

Really hoping Lemmy get this sorted soon. Please don't stop posting cool stuff here.

kbin.social is currently not federating due to them needing cloudflare protection. This will be resolved very soon. I can find this community just fine, and I'm using my own instance hosted at home.

Edit: kbin.social is federating again, so it should work now

Edit2: federation with kbin.social is working now: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]

Note that old posts will not show up here, only new content, due to how federation works.

I see. The platform seems to still be a bit wonky, hope they'll fix it all soon :)

kbin.social is struggling a lot because of the influx of new users.

That's a great problem to have ;)
