Thanks everyone for the help.

Original post: I want to create a niche community, but considering Lemmy can’t see kbin magazines, wouldn’t it make more sense to make the community on Lemmy, that way people from both Lemmy and kbin can be a part if it?

Maybe I should have posted this on a nostupidquestions community, I don’t know.

Yeah this seems to be a temporary thing. I’ve been following the federation issues we’ve been having on kbin and I’m hoping they can resolved as everything stabilizes.

I’m unsure if the ingest from kbin > Lemmy was working because last I checked they were returning error responses on requests that had “kbinbot” in the name.

It’s only lemmy.ml, not all of lemmy, that’s returning a forbidden response on requests from kbin.

There definitely seems to be something going on but I haven’t found solid problem replication steps.

For example it may be because the instance the thread was posted on is lemmy.ml but I expected the thread here: https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml/t/163712/former-current-Twitter-users-what-do-you-do-on-there would still sync up with where the version of the thread where the OP is located https://lemmy.nz/post/314511 even if it the instance where the thread was posted (maybe?) doesn’t federate with kbin.social: https://lemmy.ml/post/1868037

It’s possible my mental model of fediverse working is just still very basic and thread instance is the ultimate arbiter?

Yeah that doesn’t look like it’s federation correctly. I’ll raise it again with some of the other devs, maybe one of them will know. Pretty annoying ;(
