Hi! I’m trying to add a Kbin community to my account here on Lemmy, and nothing seems to work. I’ve tried pasting in the https URL and the Kbin URL, but nothing comes up in Lemmy search.
I’m sure I’m missing something simple. For reference, this is the community: @Minecraft@kbin.social
Thanks!
You must log in or register to comment.
You just put in the community after the url of your instance
say in your case.
https://lemm.ee/c/Minecraft@kbin.social
for your example. Then just hit the subscribe in the top right.
This does not work unless someone was able to query for the community before. You’ll just get
404: couldnt_find_community. I have yet to be able to get kbin magazines to work on my instance, along with some lemmy.ml communities (about 50/50 there).I pasted the url of the kbin magazine into the search bar and waited a few seconds
You have to search for !minecraft@kbin.social
I haven’t successfully federated with kbin yet which is a shame.>
This worked for me! Thanks. Based on the other comments, I guess someone had searched for that before.
Looking forward to an easier method, but this is fine for now.
The url is case-sensitive. Put
https://kbin.social/m/Minecraftin your instance’s search.Note: I often find I need to do a search for the URL, wait, then refresh. Then it has either already populated the search, or I can search again and it has the community as a result.
