    It’s hiding kbin magazines. There should be no difference between kbin magazines and lemmy communities when searching and exploring.

    And they could fix this if they wanted to.

        It’s possible, but there is no reason at all to have the kbin magazines separate from the communities.
        They all federate the same, so why not list them all the same.

          Because Kbin and Lemmy aren’t the same thing. Kbin works with Lemmy, but it also works with other federated platforms, as well, such as Mastodon.

          I’m guessing that the differences in the way Kbin works probably makes it difficult to include in the normal list.

          I think it can be beneficial for when people are interested in finding communities that originate from one or the other, though I do agree that a more inclusive search would be beneficial and make it easier to find spaces

              Yeah. I’m sure navigation will become easier on there in the not-too-distant future. There’s just some growing pains to push through for a great many things all over right now, and that’s alright

      There is a page in the menu for browsing Kbin magazines, but I agree. It would be better to have both on one page.
