Reddit refugee here - stumbled across Lemmy as it was mentioned in a comment on Artifact but intrigued by this format and communities!

Looking for tips as a brand new user to get the most out of it - any advice is welcome! I’m using Mlem which seems to be working pretty well so far.

    How do I subscribe to a lemmy community from kbin? I’ve tried searching and waiting like on lemmy and it still doesn’t show up.

    Is there a certain format? I tried fill url, !community@instance, community@instance

      @community@instance.tld that’s a more common way across the fediverse and also how you follow people, including those on other platforms like Mastodon and Calckey, etc.

        Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work for me. Maybe it’s something with the specific community I’m looking for?

        I’m trying @canada

        Edit: that is rendering strangly in my reply. The community is called canada and the instance is lemmy.ca
