Not sure if this is the right community to post.

I’m very new to Lemmy and Kbin, coming from Reddit. I have been joining many communities on Lemmy. I noticed today that Kbin was federating, so it should be possible to subscribe to their magazines from lemmy.world. I did that for their large ones. But it only shows two or three posts. Is it a matter if waiting for the others to be populated, or are they not compatible?

It seems that federation is working on kbin, but not lemmy, so you will see lemmy posts on kbin, but not vice versa. It’ll be sorted soon enough. It’s just a bit annoying because I’ve replied to several lemmy posts and only now realise they won’t be seeing them yet.

@tinwhiskers I will try to recreate previous posts on remote, but it will take some time and I can’t guarantee that I will succeed.

Bro, didn’t you say a few hours ago you needed to sleep? Get some rest, silly genius man! We need you focused tomorrow to get back at the grind rescuing the internet from corporate greed!

@tinwhiskers It seems to be working. There might be some delays initially, but everything will return to normal in the coming hours. Enjoy :)

@Kayzels
In my experience it can take a while (upwards of a day at times) for your instance to cache content from others that you’ve subscribed to.

I thought that might be the case. But the one magazine showed something from 10 hours ago. Yet didn’t show a post from an hour ago. And if it only showed the new ones, surely it shouldn’t show anything older than when I joined.

That is correct. But Kbin also has issues just federating in general so I just expect kbin to be broken all around.

Figured I’d test it out just now by subscribing to some communities hosted there & my Lemmy instance couldn’t even find them let alone attempt to subscribe.

Kbin is struggling with its own popularity so they turned on a CAPTCHA which breaks federation.

It should work, it’s just turned off right now.

I know they had that Cloudflare thing, but that seems to be taken down now. It does federate, just not everything.
