Is kbin.social still having federation issues?

I ask because I made an account on https://lemmy.zip and the kbin.social magazines there seems to have incomplete contents. e.g. [email protected] there only have one thread from 25 days ago. [email protected] there seemed more up-to-date but number of comments are still less than what I can see directly on kbin.social.

Another indication of trouble is that when I try to subscribe to a kbin.social magazine (like [email protected]) it is stuck on Subscribe Pending seemingly forever and does not transition to subscribed/joined status.

At first I thought it is a configuration problem on lemmy.zip or some recent version Lemmy incompatibility with kbin, but I was able to subscribe to [email protected] there fine and it seems to be getting updated contents.

So somehow traffic is not flowing smoothly between kbin.social and lemmy.zip.

@ernest, I hate to bother you but are you seeing something like this with other instances?

Is there a difference between /kbin and kbin?

For example, this magazine is named "/kbin meta" but the description says "Magazine dedicated to discussions about the kbin itself." (emphasis mine.) If you look at https://kbin.pub/en you see both

/kbin is an open source reddit-like content aggregator and microblogging platform for the fediverse.

and

Kbin is a decentralized content aggregator and microblogging platform running on the Fediverse network.

So do /kbin and kbin mean the same thing, and is one of them the more "official" name than the other? Just curious.

Opinion: kbin.social having the same name as kbin software can be confusing

I just joined and would like to say hello!

Opinion: kbin.social having the same name as kbin software led to confusing magazine names.

For example, kbinMeta's description says

Magazine dedicated to discussions about the kbin itself. Provide feedback, ask questions, suggest improvements, and engage in conversations related to the platform organization, policies, features, and community dynamics.

So if I understand correctly, it is about kbin.social-the-site.

However, kbinDesign's description appears to be about kbin-the-software.

This led to my confusion whether this is the correct place to write my "say hello" post.

What do you think?
