You should be using !asklemmy@lemmy.world type links instead of direct URLs. If I click, it kicks me out of my app to where I can’t subscribe as I’m not logged in to that server.
Using !community notation is a Lemmy-only thing. Not everybody is reading this from Lemmy, and this particular community and the OP are both on /kbin. Providing direct URLs is a more generally useful way of linking to communities in the fediverse.
It works from a Lemmy instance to see a /kbin magazine. It does not work the other way (from /kbin to see a Lemmy community).
I’m pretty new to this, myself. So do I just go, for example, !240sx ?
EDIT: Apparently not. It doesn’t seem to be linking to the local magazine. I tried to use
!240sx@kbin.social.@Tygr @herpderpedia Kbin does not support
!communitylinks just yet, but it’s in the works on some level. Linking to Lemmy communities from here can’t really be done without the full URL, which does mean one would have to provide two links - one that works on Kbin, and one that points to the original instance.In related news, linking to Kbin magazines is currently a bit borked as well, because the only other syntax that works (@magname) is assumed to refer to a user account and not a magazine.
So for instance. If I’m on Lemmy how do I add the 3d printing community?
@Chickenlambchops does the link work now?
What you put, !240sx@kbin.social should work if you don’t end it with a period?
Edit: There also appears to be a !240sx@lemmy.world as well based on my quick search.
There’s not a period at the end. That’s outside of the inline markdown to end my sentence.
Also yes there is. That’s my community on Lemmy as @herpderpedia. Although the owner isn’t right when I go to it on Kbin.
@Tygr Thanks for the tip! Edited.
Wow, whoever owns kbin.world forwarded it to lemmy.world. 😐
Is that squatting?
@Cat Hmm that doesn’t sound correct. Would you be willing to say where in the world you are and provide a screenshot of what you see please?
@Sam_uk Thanks for making me take another look. When I go to https://kbin.world/ it forwards me to https://kbin.social/m/usnews@lemmy.world
So I guess it wasn’t bringing me to the lemmy domain, just to view the lemmy community through kbin.
@Cat I wrote a bit more about it here: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/210618/kbin-world
@Sam_uk, nice! Thanks. I was on an IP somewhere in the US (VPN). So maybe I got a different result today being on a different IP. At least I know what is going on at kbin.world now. It all makes sense :-)

Thank you! This list is very nice. Wonder if we could maintain an editable wiki page on lemmy or kbin somehow though…
Another good resource which has helped me during the transition from Reddit: sub.rehab.
Any from other instances?
https://lemmyverse.net/ is the most complete list you’re likely to find since it uses a crawler to find federated instances and their communities from an initial seed list of known instances. So unless an instance is defederated from all of the instances in their seed list then it should appear on there. It also counts subscriber numbers, etc. as a sum across all the instances it finds, which should give a sense of where the majority of the community are gathered if there are duplicates.
Thank you for this list!
Neato!
How do we mass subscribe to all?
@LEDZeppelin you can’t at the moment
