Well, you really have to go there and then enter it in the search field of your instance. People keep saying its !community@server but for me that does not work. The actual link did however.
So instead of looking for !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, I look for https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy and it works.
Afaik rn you have to go to kbin and look for a magazine (that’s what they call communities) you want to join, then put it into the address bar in a lemmy instance as if the magazine is a lemmy community.
It does not seem like the lemmy servers (and mods) can handle it. There are only few major instances that allow anyone to join, and these instances are gettimg defederated by other because the new users include trolls.
Embarassing, here’s to hoping that lemmy takes off
It seems to be.
Make sure to join Kbin communities through Lemmy too!
how do we find kbin communities from lemmy?

This was the bump from the blackout.
July 1 will be the next big influx of users.

I’ve only seen one troll, who was banned from Lemmy.world very quickly. And one political troll that I just blocked.
Can you link to the issues in the mod log?
Beehaw’s power trip wasn’t really justified.
Growing pains. Just need to wait for everything to settle out. I’ve been on the fediverse for many years now and this is just the way these things go.
