A couple of easy questions that I can seem to figure out the answers to... (kbin.social)

1. Can you find/interact with a kbin magazine from a lemmy instance (i.e lemmy.ml)? If so, how?

I have been able to find lemmy communities from kbin but not the other way around for some reason

2. How do "Reputation Points" work?

For some reason I'm sitting at -29 Reputation points and it appears to be mostly from someone who went and downvoted a bunch of my threads all at once in the @NFL magazine (for seemly no reason). Regardless though, most of the threads still have more upvotes than downvotes so should I not be in the positive?

I guess at the end of the day question 2 doesn't really matter, but I'm just curious.

What do you mean properly link a magazine? If you copy the URL is will bring you to that magazine.

I seem to be able to use @magazinenamehere@kbin.social (what shows up under the magazine name in the sidebar) in some places (i.e in the sidebar of the NFL magazine) but I used the same format in the post above and it thinks from trying to link to a user called NFL rather than the magazine.

I guess I just thought tags/@'s should be used wherever possible but I can definitely just use the URL as I normally would on other sites.
