I took a quick look while it was up and it was just a user guide, similar to the lemmymigration subreddit

Since it is part of the federation, though, Lemmy users can subscribe to kbin communities (called magazines) and vice versa.

How does one do that?

It's bugging out right now, probably because of the massive amount of traffic, but once things calm down you should be able to search for a magazine by full URL (https://kbin.social/m/gaming, for example) in communities, switch all search settings to "All", wait for your instance to pull in the magazine and click through to the federated URL (should look like https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected], assuming you're on lemmy.world)

Basically, just like adding a community nobody else on your instance has added before.

I arrived here looking for the answer to exactly this. So, that's a score for using Lemmy to solve problems like I use Reddit to.

Except the native search function actually worked.
