Not sure if this is the right community to post.

I’m very new to Lemmy and Kbin, coming from Reddit. I have been joining many communities on Lemmy. I noticed today that Kbin was federating, so it should be possible to subscribe to their magazines from lemmy.world. I did that for their large ones. But it only shows two or three posts. Is it a matter if waiting for the others to be populated, or are they not compatible?

    I could be wrong but I think it’s not retroactive? Like once you federate it only shows newly created posts, not their old ones.

      I thought that might be the case. But the one magazine showed something from 10 hours ago. Yet didn’t show a post from an hour ago. And if it only showed the new ones, surely it shouldn’t show anything older than when I joined.

      That is correct. But Kbin also has issues just federating in general so I just expect kbin to be broken all around.

      Figured I’d test it out just now by subscribing to some communities hosted there & my Lemmy instance couldn’t even find them let alone attempt to subscribe.
