Is it possible to subscribe to kbin instances or whatever they're called from Lemmy? (lemmy.one)

I follow mma and see they have a community on kbin. Can I somehow subscribe to it from lemmy.one?

That did it, now I'm subscribed but I only see few posts and users (1 subscribed) on desktop (Lemmy) and Jerboa but when I go directly to kbin on desktop I can see much more posts and users (253 subscribed).

You only start getting posts and comments from after the first person on your instance (you in this case) subscribes to the community. You can make it fetch old posts manually if there's something you want to reply to by entering the post URL in /search, otherwise just wait and all the new posts will show up here.

I've noticed the subscriber count thing, as well. I think that's telling you how many subscribers the community has from your instance only.

For example, I'm here from midwest.social and it's telling me [email protected] has 8 subscribers. That doesn't seem right. The post and comment counter is correct, though, so what do I know?
