Glad it worked!
I think it takes time for the instances to sync if you're the first person subscribing to a magazine/community, especially if you're the first to link up with that whole instance from your home instance. Once they do their first sync, it updates much more quickly.
Right now, I hear there's some lag with the first sync, so it could take 15 minutes to 2+ hours. I know the devs are working on it.
In other words, if the servers don't know each other exist, they don't have each other's data. Once they are aware of each other, they sync up. If someone on your home instance already made the introduction, that first sync is quicker.
Yeah, I assumed it just needed to sync, but wasn't sure because I'm definitely not the first person on my instance to sync with lemmy.world and didn't know if magazines synced independently from each other.
Interestingly, I subscribed to two magazines on that instance yesterday, and one of them is no longer empty while the other still is, 20+ hours later (and it does have posts when viewed through lemmy.world, just not through my kbin instance). Certainly takes its time, lol.
Hrm, that's weird. Do yo have any settings enabled that might hide content, like NSFW? Otherwise, I'd send a quick message to the admin. They're super swamped, but if you could summarize the problem in 1-2 sentences, you might get a quick reply.
