Oh, I just assumed it would work. But indeed it does not work in the way you described (and that's how it works on kbin as well). I was curious and did some searching. I stumbled upon this thread: https://lemmy.world/post/225841 and apparently you need to paste the whole URL from kbin in the search bar and then it shows up (I tested it on a lemmy instance and it seemed to work).
Edit: And it shows that federation does not always work great. Since your instance had 0 replies but that instance had replies and the correct one as well. Didn't notice it was the same question/post until after posting this.
Thats ok, happens all the time ^^
At least we both now Know what to Do and hopefully in a couple of month lemmy will be better federating with kbin. Right now we are all "Pioneers"
Sorry to hijack the thread, but is there any way I can view where something is crossposted to?
If I see a post i like, I might find other interesting communities by looking at the crossposted-list
Thanks
I think this option isn't available on Jerboa (Android client) yet?
You can find it as the two overlapping squares at the bottom of the header:
Maybe it varies from instance to instance, but on sh.itjust.works there's a crosspost button near the report flag.
Screenshot, for some reason I can't embed directly.
I think you have to do it manually. I haven't seen any short cut myself.
I don't use lemmy but apparently there is a button a bit hidden somewhere. I believe this question was asked here earlier today.
You are Posting from a lemmy instance on a lemmy instance, how do you NOT use lemmy?
I'm not posting from a lemmy instance. I'm posting from a kbin instance and therefore not using lemmy.
This thing is so confusing 😭
Ahhh ok, thats i tresting. Kbin to lemmy works But not vice versa?
I thought it works both ways. You just need to add the kbin magazine to lemmy.
Somebody asked exactly the Same question about the Same kbin sub i want to add :D

The button looks like a copy icon. Just mouseover the buttons to the right of the comment count.
