Sorry not sure I understand. Let me try another example and maybe that will solidify it.
I’d like to join this community: https://imgur.com/a/lJX8b7u
When I search @asklemmy in kbin.social is see this: https://imgur.com/a/oeDPZ8i
I tried modifying the link you previously posted to show as : https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
Which shows as : https://imgur.com/a/ysUutXx
But this community has far fewer subscriber and comments than the “original” Lemmy community, as seen here: https://imgur.com/a/givdaoE
So I am just trying to figure out… why? And how can I fix this? And how can I iron out the process? Thanks in advance!
Is there anyone out there in the #fediverse who might be able to help answer a question for a recent #redditMigration refugee trying to learn his way in this world?
@stillnotahero Ask away!
I've been on the Fediverse (Mastodon) for well over a year, and Kbin for a couple of weeks now - after 12 years of Redditing.
I think my biggest issue is using the kbin website (or PWA) and being able to search for a different ActivityPub-affiliated website, but stay within the kbin instance, so I can subscribe.
I have a post above with some screenshots to explain my question, here’s a link : https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/p/609057/-/reply/1082038
@stillnotahero @youshouldknow @Zana I don’t have any answers cuz I really haven’t messed with kbin yet. I am on lemmy.world and I simply search for the community within there are start following it. Seems like kbin works similarly?
@Lifecoach5000 As far as I can tell, kbin does work in a similar fashion. However, I am not sure if I am coming across two unique communities, depending on how I reach them (kbin search vs. Google search). Or if the discrepancy is because we are still in the infant stages of fediverse and not everything is going to mesh together 100% (e.g. some subscriber / comment totals might be off because they are not fully synced between instances yet?)
