Subscribing to small (previously unseen by kbin) communities (kbin.social)

How does this work on kbin at the moment?

My understanding is that, at least on Lemmy, you should be able to search for a full community name, wait a while, and have it show up and start federating. I've been searching for two communities (in the format name@instance.tld) on kbin since yesterday and it still shows no matches.

Both are small (<20 subscribers) and currently inactive (no new posts in a week). Do I need to wait until there is new content in them?

it's probably related to the bug that is known about and getting fixed - that kbin is currently case sensitive - which breaks things a bit when it comes to remote communities.
