How do I follow Kbin magazines from here?
I seem to be missing something about the process.
Some followable kbin places show up when I search Communities, but how do I go about following one that Beehaw doesn't already apparently know about?

I believe so. Again, the main blocker is kbin had to enable CloudFlare due to user overload and unfortunately that breaks federation. Given time the issue should solve itself hopefully.
Cool, thanks. So I guess my question is how you search for a kbin instance from Lemmy? If I search for !fedia@fedia.io for instance I only get results from lemmy threads rather than the magazine itself.
Try searching without the exclamation point? I think that's all you need to do. I'm new to the Fediverse too. I believe whilst usually federation is instant the massive influx of users means there's a delay at the moment, so all content should appear as expected as the servers grow and stabilize to match the influx of Reddit refugees.
I think it is just a delay, and maybe some kbin weirdness. I can browse to https://beehaw.org/c/worldnews@fedia.io for instance, but not some other magazines including fedia@fedia.io. Searching for fedia.io brings up posts but no communities, and even searching for worldnews@fedia.io which we know is federated here brings up no results regardless of whether I use the "!".
