ParsnipWitch@kbin.socialtoFediverse@lemmy.ml•Lemmy is a pretty cool platform. But I think we need to consider how to make cross-instance community federation more user friendly and accessible.

1 year agoI think what makes it hard to understand as well it that sometimes stuff just doesn’t work currently. Because of the influx of new users, for example.
And new users confuse something not working on the servers side as a mistake they made and get increasingly confused. When it all settled a bit and everything works as expected, I think at least a part of the confusion will be lifted and new users will have an easier time.
Is there a description like this for kbin.social? Not sure if it’s just because of some cloudfare issues but for example communities on the Lemmy instance feddit.de do not show up for me on kbin.social. Some of their posts do, though.
But if I search for e.g. !ich_iel@feddit.de on kbin.social it won’t show up and therefore I can’t subscribe to it from kbin’s side.
EDIT
Now it suddenly shows up under Magazines on kbin.social. How often do new communities on Lemmy instances get federated to kbin?
