A magazine to ask questions (and get answers) about Kbin.

founded 2 years ago
 

I'm trying to subscribe to this lemmy community: https://lemmy.nix-community.org/c/nix
But when I try to open on kbin (https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]) I get error 404. Why? Are there any fixes/workarounds?

Chances are it hasn't been federated by the instance yet. You can force it by using the search feature and searching @magazine@instance

So if you search @[email protected] it should federate. It won't load old posts but anything new should show up.

Edit: this usually will work, but not in this case. I checked out the website itself and sorting by all communities rather than local only shows local posts, so maybe they completely disabled federation

I'm not sure I understand how to force it. The following doesn't work:

  1. Click on the magnifying glass in the top right side
  2. Write @nix in the search field
  • This doesn't seem to find any magazines, just posts and threads
  1. Re-try opening the magazine
  • Still 404
