On the desktop version of the site i can just put the name after m/ in the URL (sans !) and i can sub from there. but how do i do this from the pwa i use on my phone?

      That appears to be the case. I’m on my own instance of kbin, viewing it in a desktop browser. When I was searching for communities with ! and not finding anything, I at first assumed I’d set up my instance wrong and search wasn’t working at all. But then I noticed magazines on kbin.social labeled themselves as @magazine@server, so I tried that for something and successfully added it to my instance.

        I see, thanks for the confirmation!

        Also, based on the formatting that I’m seeing from my (Lemmy) side, I feel like there’s some autoformatting feature to be added – the Lemmy community link gets autoformatted but not the kbin magazine link (which incidentally also look like Mastodon user links).

        wait, lemme test something – not using the quotation marks
        @glennmagusharvey@scicomm.xyz

        okay yeah it wasn’t just the quotation marks

        Sidenote: Fediverse links to comments in kbin bring me to a login page, for some reason. (Even though the post with that comment is public. Fediverse links to Lemmy comments also work fine. Seems like the threadiverse still does need some more polish…
