How to subscribe to a kbin community in Lemmy? (lemmy.ml)

I heard that Lemmy and kbin are interoperable, which is good since people are making different choices.

So now I'd like to subscribe to a community on kbin.social, but darned if I can find out how. I've tried putting the name (e.g., @science@kbin.social) into search, I've tried using ! instead of @, I've tried using the URL, nothing comes up.

Am I missing something, or is this simply not an option?

Thanks.

Afaik, you actually can't, at least for now. You can follow everything from Kbin though.

I think it might go the opposite way? I'm really not sure, but it looks like you can sub to a lemmy instance in kbin, but not the other way around. I may be way off, though, and I would love to know the correct answer if I am.

I tried pasting a kbin magazine link into the search box but nothing ever showed up in my communities. I would love to be wrong but I’m not sure we can subscribe to their native groups.
