Hi! I’m trying to add a Kbin community to my account here on Lemmy, and nothing seems to work. I’ve tried pasting in the https URL and the Kbin URL, but nothing comes up in Lemmy search.
I’m sure I’m missing something simple. For reference, this is the community: @[email protected]
Thanks!
You just put in the community after the url of your instance
say in your case.
https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]
for your example. Then just hit the subscribe in the top right.
This does not work unless someone was able to query for the community before. You’ll just get
404: couldnt_find_community
. I have yet to be able to get kbin magazines to work on my instance, along with some lemmy.ml communities (about 50/50 there).You have to search for [email protected]
I haven’t successfully federated with kbin yet which is a shame.>
I pasted the url of the kbin magazine into the search bar and waited a few seconds
The url is case-sensitive. Put
https://kbin.social/m/Minecraft
in your instance’s search.Note: I often find I need to do a search for the URL, wait, then refresh. Then it has either already populated the search, or I can search again and it has the community as a result.
