Ironically, the trouble you're having with subscribing is because you're on Kbin. On Lemmy you can just click the links in the post
Can you give an example outside American politics?
I don't really agree, Lemmy made sure that posts+comments show up in Mastodon and that Mastodon users can post+comment to Lemmy.
More compatibility would be great though.
No way, are you the k_o_t?
5% of Reddit is colossal compared to Lemmy's current numbers. I think even 0.1% would be very noticeable.

I've been thinking of doing that, or to maybe switch to some small obscure instance
The UI of squabbles.io actually feels good for this. It's a shame it's closed-source and doesn't federate.
Imagine if you subscribed to a community on Lemmy and it only showed posts and comments AFTER you subscribed…
If you're on a small instance, that's actually the case with Lemmy, lol. You can only see a remote community if someone from your instance subscribed to it.
Pff, get off my lawn
