I'm told you enter the full URL into the search function, but that doesn't work. Is that normal or an exodus-related issue? I'd like to look at Kbin stuff.

I've seen chatter on Mastodon that kbin will view lemmy communities, but lemmy doesn't correctly view kbin magazines. I don't know if it's accurate or not. I have been able to join lemmy communities on other servers, however.

Note that you enter the URL as !community@host.

Is there a user guide somewhere? This should probably be in the sidebar.

Would probably be a lonnnnng job for an SDF instance owner to write. However! Such things often do well when crowd-sourced. If Lemmy has wiki-like capabilities, we could all pool our knowledge there. (Mine is meager because I'm brand new, but still) If nothing else, we could use the existing en.wikipedia.org to collectively create the document there.

So [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) should at least return a result (with all filters turned to all)?

I'm not sure it will; as I said, I have heard that subscribing to kbin from lemmy is not currently working, from users on mastodon. (I just tried that search and it indeed did not work, for me.)

I have heard this too, with the added (and unverified) statement that kbin.social is behind Cloudflare right now, which is breaking federation.

Hmm, if that was the case I'd expect one of these other kbin instances to work. I'm trying [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) (kbin link) with no success.

Could the m/community instead of c/community be breaking it, maybe?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

oop! https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/[email protected] is in SDF Lemmy now and it pulled the thumbnail over, but it looks like it's still syncing? That or we can't actually sync kbin content.

Neat, so it's just a search problem. [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) reached the same way actually does show content.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ahh, that's the one I was trying.
