How do you subscribe to a community outside of your instance without getting to it from an internal link? (readit.buzz)

I found a community on lemmy.world I'd like to join, but I can't figure out how to open it in my kbin instance so that I can subscribe to it. I tried to paste the link into the search bar, but it came up with "empty." I also tried to modify a link to a different community on lemmy.world that I had accessed via kbin, but just came up with a 404 error. Am I missing something?

(Sorry if this isn't the right place for this, I'm still getting the feel of things here.)

Just to add to this, the community front page is also visible in the hamburger button on the top left of the header. It often requires less scrolling to get to. It's not the most intuitive of UX but it works!

The above instructions are only relevant for the mobile Web version of kbin.social, just for some extra clarification.
