YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content
Because they don't get listed by browse.feddit.de you'll want to browse https://kbin.social/magazines to browse "magazines", which is what they call communities
e.g. !RedditMigration@kbin.social
or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration
Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @ernest@kbin.social over the past few days.

My home Lemmy doesn't seem to be able to find communities on kbin, when I search for something like !tech@kbin.social it just never resolves. :-/
Try pasting the browser url as it is in kbin, instead of using the Lemmy syntax. I know it's goofy but it works.
Neither seems to work for me, maybe federation is overloaded with the sudden influx? I'll report back if it ends up working.
I tried finding https://kbin.social/m/photoshopbattles Search wouldn’t bring anything up but I copied the url from kbin into the community search bar on lemmy, hit search, nothing…then I refreshed the page and searched it again and it popped up. I had to copy the url from the web browser bar.
I've tried all different ways to find https://kbin.social/m/mma but none of them are federating
I was able to find the RedditMigration 'magazine' though, so it is hit or miss for me
Must still be some growing pains, because your instance definitely doesn't have kbin.social blocked.
