Edit: TIL it doesn't matter if you make your community on Lemmy or kbin, they're federated and will have equal exposure (kbin.social)

Thanks everyone for the help.

Original post: I want to create a niche community, but considering Lemmy can't see kbin magazines, wouldn't it make more sense to make the community on Lemmy, that way people from both Lemmy and kbin can be a part if it?

Maybe I should have posted this on a nostupidquestions community, I don't know.

Lemmy can see kbin magazines. I'm on a lemmy instance right now.

kbin.social itself has had some federation issues in the past month, but I think that's more growing pains of a new platform than anything inherent in the system itself.

Yeah this seems to be a temporary thing. I've been following the federation issues we've been having on kbin and I'm hoping they can resolved as everything stabilizes.

I'm unsure if the ingest from kbin > Lemmy was working because last I checked they were returning error responses on requests that had "kbinbot" in the name.

It's only lemmy.ml, not all of lemmy, that's returning a forbidden response on requests from kbin.
