Can users from Lemmy instances see/interact with Magazines from kbin? If so, what is the proper way to search for one on another instance so it is “discovered”? I can foresee a problem with the same or very similar community being created across several Lemmy instances, all competing for engagement. What’s the best way to solve this?

    @communist Not sure honestly, the whole platform (kbin/lemmy) is definitely too confusing for the general public to figure out… But maybe that’s for the better? All I know is kbin was much easier to join (I tried several lemmy instances several times and just got stuck on the spinning signup wheel every time) Also, the kbin interface/layout seems a bit nicer than the lemmy default that many instances are using.

      I don’t think it’s the case that the platform is too confusing for the general public to figure out in any fundamental ways, it’s a little buggy right now and needs some UX work, but I think it’ll get there.
