I’m sure many new users are curious.

    @npastaSyn Thanks to ActivityPub you can use Lemmy/Kbin and other fediverse social networks without the need of making a new account in them.

    Right now I’m writing this from Mastodon.
    If I were about making an account probably I’ll go to lemmy.ca people over there seem extra chill.

    Like adding extra Lemmy to an order of Lemmy.

      Please tell me how I can follow a magazine / community in Mastodon. I tried to do it but would only see a random comment, not the OP of a post or any of the other comments. When I would click on the comment it would take me directly to Kbin or Lemmy. (Which is fine, since I’m mainly on Kbin for the message board feel and on Mastodon for the miceoblog experience.)

        Are you talking about subscribing to a magazine? I do it on mobile by clicking the magazine I want, clicking the top left square button modal with the 3 lines, then scroll down until you see the magazine name to click Subscribe

          I was trying to subscribe to kbin magazines and Lemmy communities in Mastodon. When I’ve done it, they show up incomplete in Mastodon. But maybe there were initial issues with info coming across so I might try it again. Then again, I don’t mind being on kbin to see kbin and Lemmy posts, and being in Mastodon to see only Mastodon posts.

          On thing that is annoying for me is that the subscription button would make more sense at the top.

          Thanks. I did this on mobile, maybe thats why it doesn’t work that way for me. Or I can try again, maybe there were some initial issues with federating.
