I'm the creator of @Bestof or !BestOf@kbin.social and I've been trying to grow the community for the last couple of weeks. It was an uphill battle as I could only get 5-10 members every day, sometimes even much less.

After finally hitting 100 subscribers yesterday, 200 subscribers this morning, and nearly at 300 subscribers this afternoon, I believe my community is really fruiting!

Thank you so much for your interest. I will do my best to manage this community and have it flourish. I can envision how fantastic it will be, and I hope it contributes to your enjoyment of the Fediverse!

Just subscribed too. The link in the post to the magazine doesn't work though?

Same here. The first link works for me if I open in a new tab. When I click the link directly it gives a 404 error. The second link gives 404 error either way.

Kbin has a bug where it sometimes interprets magazine links as users, you can see the url has /u/ in it instead of /m/.

[–] Teal@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I see that now. Good catch!

Maybe a URL link would be helpful? https://kbin.social/m/Bestof

(I tried to add a comment about this from my account on lemm.ee, not sure if it will show up later)

Though the links in the post are good if you're browsing from a different server, one of them opened up for me on my home server as https://lemm.ee/c/BestOf@kbin.social

Thank you for the work, I think I was one of the early subs to this.

Seems like there's an issue on kbin.social right now and I can't subscribe, i'll check this out later.

[–] brunox 1 points 1 year ago

Congratulations!

My subscription is pending but hope to join soon!

[–] patchw3rk@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

@lob I'm not sure what that means. I don't see anything on my end.
