Some of you might be interested in the new magazine, BrainFood, focused on interesting/educative videos that generate (scientific) wonder, curiosity, and/or understanding.

Advertising it like this feels a bit dirty, but my hope is that it is something most of you would be interested in, and thus wouldn't mind that much :D

Thanks for bringing it to our attention. Discovery is difficult right now, advertising in places that are genuinely relevant is a real service.

Subscribed! Cheers. I'm a science teacher, I love this sort of thing!

Thanks! Unfortunately I can't manage to subscribe via lemmy. https:///c/brainfood@kbin.social worked before on other communities (also on kbin). I'm receiving a "404: couldnt_find_community" error. Does anybody have an idea?

hmm I tried it on lemmy.world and it worked: https://lemmy.world/c/brainfood@kbin.social
Probably just a temporary issue

edit: it seems that feddit.de didn't fetch it yet

edit2: it isn't fetched on lemmy.ml and beehaw.org either, strange

To make posts appear on those instances, at least one person must subscribe to the community.

[–] notx@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not only the posts, the community itself isn't visible,
but it seems they are slowly catching up (lemmy.ml can see it now)

Beehaw still hasn't gotten wind of it. I wonder what affects how fast community names "spread" in ActivityPub. Come to think of it I don't actually know how ActivityPub works in the first place; I wonder if there's an explanation of it available somewhere (something that isn't just the spec)

It wasn’t working for me until today. After reading some GitHub issues I searched for the whole path in the search bar: https://kbin.social/m/brainfood

This time I could subscribe to it and it appears on feddit.de now. But according to feddit I am the only subscriber and there are no posts at the moment.
