I am trying to subscribe to a channel on a PeerTube instance from kbin. Considering they are both ActivityPub, it would make sense that kbin could integrate with a PeerTube instance. But when I try to “Subscribe With A Remote Account” using my @ given in the profile section, I receive the error “Cannot fetch information of this remote account” Likewise, I get the same result when using just a regular email as theat seemed like what “jane_doe@example.com” was implying.

    Kbin is built around the idea of magazines, any content that arrives that is not part of a magazine, is added to the default magazine “random” so that’s likely where the posts are going, I’m not sure if they will be under threads or microblog though, I think threads because it’s a video - but I’d check both places to be sure.

    Yes you can follow from Mastodon or anywhere. It’s just another federated post.
