I follow mma and see they have a community on kbin. Can I somehow subscribe to it from lemmy.one?

Yes, just copypaste the kbin community link on the searchbar of your instance (in your case it should be https://lemmy.one/) and then you can treat it as if it were a lemmy community.

I did just that but there are no results. I used this link:

https://kbin.social/m/mma

Same thing on desktop.

EDIT: @[email protected] tried this one also but no luck.

That did it, now I'm subscribed but I only see few posts and users (1 subscribed) on desktop (Lemmy) and Jerboa but when I go directly to kbin on desktop I can see much more posts and users (253 subscribed).

You only start getting posts and comments from after the first person on your instance (you in this case) subscribes to the community. You can make it fetch old posts manually if there's something you want to reply to by entering the post URL in /search, otherwise just wait and all the new posts will show up here.

I've noticed the subscriber count thing, as well. I think that's telling you how many subscribers the community has from your instance only.

For example, I'm here from midwest.social and it's telling me [email protected] has 8 subscribers. That doesn't seem right. The post and comment counter is correct, though, so what do I know?

I just tried going to that magazine directly, on kbin, but i get a 503 server error, do you get that too? Might just be having issues right now

While this morning it was not working, now instead it does. Probably full synchronisation with kbin wasn't/isn't finished yet.
