Searching for "linux" should bring up all communities from all federated instances.
This is already working for me today: I discovered several magazines this way, and a search for "linux" brings up groups on other instances:
https://kbin.social/magazines?q=linux
The third result on that page is @linux@lemmy.ml – do you not see the same?
I should be able to merge instances for viewing
As long as it's optional and you're able to choose which ones you merge.
I totally get how that could be useful, but it's not something I'd want. There are federated instances that I mostly avoid, like lemmy.ml, which which welcomes and encourages CCP propaganda and disinformation.
I have the same problem, trying to add !deutschland@feddit.de ad independent of what I do it doesn't show up.
same problem here. i cant find !internetisbeautiful@lemmy.ml or !fossdroid@lemmy.ml ... is the magazine search broken?
These Communitys can be found on lemmy.one but not on kbin.social. Why is this?
!internetisbeautiful@lemmy.ml
!fossdroid@lemmy.ml
!privatelife@lemmy.ml
!deutschland@feddit.de
!privacy@community.nicfab.it
!de_edv@feddit.de
!fediverselore@lemmy.ca
!raspberrypi@feddit.de
!cybersecurity@lemmy.ml
!Futurology@lemmy.ml
!privacy@lemmy.ca
!cryptocurrency@lemmy.ml
!Netzpolitik@feddit.de
!decentralized@lemmy.ml
!bitcoin@lemmy.ml
!privacy@community.nicfab.it
!retrogaming@feddit.it
!linuxdesktopporn@lemmy.ml
!privacysecurityosint@sopuli.xyz
!privacy@links.hackliberty.org
I have had the same (or similar?) issue.
I can search for example1@lemmy.ml and it works and I can subscribe in kbin.
But then I search for example2@lemmy.ml and get no results.
I'm still having problems with this, for example right now with photography@lemmy.world and analog@lemmy.ml.
I wonder if searching for the first time causes the sites to federate, but there is a delay so they don't show up immediately?
Ok, in https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/8373/Lemmy-compatibility someone figured out that you need to replace the ! with a @ and then it works to find it through the search. I tried it and could subscribe to the magazine I wanted.
Do you search in the search bar or in magazines?
if I search for @ communityname @ servername. whatever in the search bar it works for me. I had to use the spaces to get it to display properly
I think you put the wrong handles. I searched both @y2k and @frutiger_aero and now they work:
https://kbin.social/m/y2k@sopuli.xyz
https://kbin.social/m/frutiger_aero@sopuli.xyz
edit: problem is I'm not sure how to search for old discussions/posts to import them here. I tried with a few posts in the last few days but it didn't work like it does on masto/misskey. Searching the user sometimes seems to work.
Wait! I tried to search a thread and it didn't show results but if you check the magazines it's there.
