Basically I want to follow https://kbin.social/m/chess without the assle of browsing a different website.

Is it possible to follow and comment a kbin magazine ou lemmy?

UPDATE: I was able to subscribe to /m/chess on lemmy.world, but I still don’t see any of their posts. Maybe I’ll only receive the new ones? I tried to create a post there and it does show on kbin! However, comments don’t seem to show up on kbin yet, trying to wait it out.

Go to communities and paste the url https://kbin.social/m/chess in the search box. It won’t find anything, but if you change the selection box from communties to all, you should see !chess@kbin.social in the result. Click on the and subscribe.

UPDATE2:

  • I only see new posts, older posts don’t show up. That’s fine

  • I can create a new post, it shows on kbin. However, comments made on lemmy don’t show up in kbin. Comments on kbin show up in lemmy

  • Made a second posts, everything worked fine. Comments show up on kbin just fine. Weird…

  • New posts made on kbin show up on lemmy. Comments made on lemmy on a post created via kbin work fine. They also show up on lemmy. No idea why but I’m happy.

Thanks, everyone!!!

    It should work the same way as adding a community from another lemmy instance.

    Go to communities and paste the url https://kbin.social/m/chess in the search box. It won’t find anything, but if you change the selection box from communties to all, you should see !chess@kbin.social in the result. Click on the and subscribe.

    The whole process is still a bit buggy though.

      Yep, changing the select box worked for me! Unfortunately no posts seem to show up.
