I noticed that not all magazines of federated (Lemmy) instances show up in search. So is there a way to open them anyway in Mbin and trigger fetching of content?
I already tried to open the /m/magazine@federated.instance URL directly but it only returns a 404.

Yes, Mbin is basically the same.

All you need to do is search the magazine in the global (non-magazine) search field, and then subscribe to it and activity from then on will start federating.
