I just moved from kbin.social, but I can’t find / subscribe to these magazines:
- @ LifeHacks@kbin.social
- @ lifeprotips@lemmy.ml
- @ thunderbird@lemmy.world
Any help appreciated!

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by can’t find / subscribe, can you give more details? The thunderbird one wasn’t there, so I just searched for it to add it, but the others were
!LifeHacks@kbin.social !lifeprotips@lemmy.ml !thunderbird@lemmy.world !belgium@lemmy.world
To add a magazine you simply search for it, e.g. https://kbin.run/search?q=!thunderbird%40lemmy.world though that will show it now since I already did it.
Magazines need at least one local subscriber to receive any updates, this is true of Mbin as well as /kbin and lemmy (as far as I know). It’s a little hard to tell when a magazine has a local subscriber, we lost that info when we started using real subscriber numbers and unfortunately it hasn’t been added back in a way that is accurate to whether there are any or not.
I get the impression from your posts you might be using the interstellar app rather than the web so it might be a bit different there, I’m not super familiar with it so not sure how to search for magazines
At least on the website, the search for adding a magazine is also different than the search that filters on the magazine list page, confusing, I know, not sure if the app has that distinction
Thank you! I managed to subscribe to them from the Interstellar app now. Not sure what went wrong on the web page search.
Thank you I was able to use this to federate with a kbin magazine so I can do crossposting.
