I took a quick look while it was up and it was just a user guide, similar to the lemmymigration subreddit
You're viewing a single thread.
I’m on both beehaw and kbin. I’m still trying to understand kbin. I guess magazines are like communities? But the list of magazines, while long, appears to only be local? How do I see communities on other instances to subscribe to them? Beehaw is more understandable. I can see what instance someone is posting from. I can see and subscribe to communities for other instances. I can select to see all my subscriptions from any instance.
So for now, I’ll keep both my accounts. Let the dust settle. Learn how to drive “this thing” and eventually delete an account from a server that I don’t need. It’ll free up space for someone else.
You can find lemmy communities via the search function. Search with @COMMUNITY@LEMMY-INSTANCE, this produces a magazine that is linked to the community.
I don't think it has communities like Lemmy - it all seems to be kbin.social so it is all local. However, if you head over to Lemmy and locate the communities you want to follow from their big list (like the beehaw.org communities), you can add them to your kbin subscriptions and follow along from kbin. The only difference I've found is that Lemmy community links start with the ! sign, so that has to be changed to @ when you search for the community through kbin.
Edit: I'm keeping my kbin and my sh.itjust.works accounts for now to see which I prefer.
It looks like someone is making an extension to handle subscribing to Lemmy communities easier from kbin. I'm still trying to figure it all out myself though.
That would be great! The easier things are for anyone who migrates the more likely they are to stick around and contribute.
