How does that work when two instances can have communities/magazines with the same name?
And that still wouldn't directly let me subscribe since it takes me to sh.itjust.works when I'm on Kbin. I'm also using the PWA but I imagine I'll switch back to straight browser.
Because the two communities are on different servers. !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works is on the sh.itjust.works instance/server (https://sh.itjust.works/c/noncredibledefense) and !noncredibledefense@lemmy.world, as an example, would be on lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/c/noncredibledefense). They're both different communities/subreddits with different mods/admins.
While this can be a little confusing at first, after a while 1 or 2 similar communities will became the mainstream ones where most traffic will go while the others will be way smaller and a little more niche.
Sorry that the link doesn't work for you. Kbin is a different platform and I have no experience with it.
All I see for both of those is "!noncredibledefense" and yet they go to different servers.
What are you actually typing? I'm assuming the markdown is changing it.
Each !noncredibledefense is followed by an @, then the name of the instance. The first is @ then sh.itjust.works, the second is @ then lemmy.world. All one word, similar to an email address.
