I blocked them easily enough, but is there any way to report them to the instance admins?

Per my question in the title.

For some strange reason, I'm having an issue seeing comments on my own threads. I get notifications indicating that I got a comment, but when I go to view it, it says "no comments."

If I copy the post link, logout, then navigate to the thread, I can then see the comments under the thread.

I have no idea why this would be the case. Is anyone else having this issue?

How do I remove the cover from my profile? I cannot see the option to do so.

I have never used twitter and am not on mastodon. I'm subscribed to a few magazines that have microblog posts, though, and I've noticed that 1) all of said posts have hashtags, 2) most of them are coming from mastodon, and 3) I'm starting to get the sense that from the mastodon side they're not actually associated with the kbin magazine.

If I, a kbin user, make a microblog post, is it actually associated with the magazine I posted it to or is it just linked to it via hashtags? Would I have to add the hashtag myself to actually post to the magazine? If microblogs are subscriptions to hashtags rather than to magazines, is it possible to subscribe to a hashtag without a corresponding magazine?

I can't seem to get anything except a 404 whenever I hit page 9 when browsing (kbin.social/?p=9). All other pages seem fine.

I found the FAQ but it doesn't really explain much. I'm looking for a very basic guide here, like what are badges and what are boosts etc.?

Also I see that I can view a list of all the magazines for this instance, but is there a way I can view the magazines for other instances? For example I see a lot of posts from lemmy.world showing up on my homepage but outside of clicking into those posts I don't know how to see what magazines lemmy.world offers.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Specifically how can I upload a profile picture? I'm probably missing something obvious, but I just can't find it. I'm on firefox on windows.

For example, I'm not interested in memes, so whenever i see a community (? not sure qhat the equivalent of sub-reddit is called on kbin), such as https://kbin.social/m/memes@lemmy.ml, I block it.

How do I see the list of the ones that I have blocked?

One reason for wanting to see this is that I seem to have to block a community called "Memes" almost every day - I assume these are on different instances. Is there a way to block any community called Memes (or perhaps even all ones with "memes" in the name)?

I'm 100% it was asked before, I just couldn't find a post, but is there a way to claim ownership over a magazine who's owner is inactive(3+ weeks)? There's a community on lemmy.ml for that !community_requests , is there something similar on kbin?
