Oddly enough that trick didn't work on Fedia.io (Kbin server), where books@kbin.social works....
Is there a similar trick for Kbin?

Thank you so much! That worked perfectly - I've done it now on a couple of Lemmy servers, so it'll show up there by default now.
Only Lemmy.ml didn't work, but that's ok!

So, I'm very confused! I've got 2 questions:

https://lemmy.world/c/kbinmeta@kbin.social works
https://lemmy.world/c/books@kbin.social works
but
https://lemmy.world/c/Amsterdam@kbin.social
doesn't!
(Here's the direct Kbin link: https://kbin.social/m/Amsterdam )

Why could that be? What settings would I need to change to make my magazine show up? Is the magazine not federated for some reason? Is it because it has a capital letter & kbin is case sensitive?

The main reason for asking - aside from showing up across the Fediverse - is that currently there are lots of clients out for Lemmy's API, and I want to use an app to browse Kbin/Lemmy, so that's why I'm signing in with Lemmy, but want to browse my Kbin 'Magazine'.

On a related note: can I add a moderator for a Kbin magazine if their user profile is from another (Kbin/Lemmy) server? It would really help!

One piece of functionality kbin desperately needs is a quick way to access your subrcibed magazines. Preferably in a drop-down menu like \<redacted\> has. by akaxaka in c/kbinMeta@kbin.social

@sheawoodrow
ahh yes, I’d love that too.

Right now it’s username > profile > subscribed which are too many clicks (especially on mobile).

Any guides/info on styling magazines? by akaxaka in c/kbin@kbin.social

How I’ve approach it is to use the built in developer tools to “inspect” an element in Kbin & then use the Appearance panel in the Moderation Panel of your community to change it.

The linked kbinStyles community gives a good idea of the format involved.

@sheawoodrow That's the one of the few things it has right now :)
Just the = burger menu next to you user name at the top right of the screen.
