Reddit Migration

Not sure if something is just wrong with their end or if kbin just isn’t working yet, but I’ve been trying to subscribe to [email protected] on kbin. The 3D Printing subreddit mod set it up and the subscribers to that subreddit really dogpiled on him for doing it for some reason (you’d think 3d printer owners would be techie enough to care about the protests)

Anyway I wanted to support it but I literally can’t on kbin. Am I doing it wrong? I’ve tried it with and without ! and @ in front of the magazine name, according to the conflicting advice here.

You can manually write the url like this: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]

And then go to it and click subscribe. This sometimes doesn't work for me if the instance hasn't been "found" by kbin.social and I have had 0 luck adding it through search, but seems to be ok with yours.

I had this same problem. Try looking it up over here: https://kbin.social/search possibly without the ! mark, not sure.

I think the magazines list only shows magazines/communities that have already federated. But, search kicks that into motion if it hasn't started already.

To clarify, I want to subscribe on kbin.social to a magazine on latte.isnot.coffee. Or can we only subscribe to instances on some 'federated' list, and, if so, isn't that a maintenance nightmare?
