Can someone please remind me how to open a Lemmy community in kbin? Maybe this is a bigger issue on mobile.

If I open a federated community I see this in kbin : https://imgur.com/a/oFQnMqj
And if I click the link to ‘Browse more on the original instance’ I’m brought to this screen : https://imgur.com/a/uNCvirP
And there is no option to subscribe without creating an account on that instance.
I think I might have read you need to search with a specific phrase but I can’t find where I saw that.

Try searching @youshouldknow@lemmy.world, it will lead to https://kbin.social/m/youshouldknow@lemmy.world then there will be a subscribe button on the right. Mobile it might be on the bottom below all of the posts.

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!

@stillnotahero @youshouldknow @Zana Don't missunderstand the following stats. They are more complex and yes they may differ depending on the point of view (view instance you are viewing the community on). And this is a good thing. Why should kbin.social take followers into account from a instance they don't federate with, but maybe lemmy.ml does, just to give an example.
-
That's the correct one, just hit subscribe. The comments won't match as it only counts the ones after somebody first subscribed from your instance (I think). Either way, due to federation the numbers quite often are different, it's best to use them as a guide only. The numbers on the home instance's community should be the correct ones.

@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?

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?
