Confirming that this is the way it works (at least on kbin). I just did a test run with militaria_collecting@lemmy.world on Kbin.social. At first it doesn't show up and I get a 404. I then follow @Spec_OpsFive (who does exist on kbin.social via this thread that was federated there), and search again - it now shows a newly created magazine (aka community) with no posts, and I'm allowed to sub:
https://kbin.social/m/militaria_collecting@lemmy.world
So yeah, someone has to subscribe to either the user or the magazine for the instance to start recording content from it. Once that initial step is in play, your instance records the incoming posts from the federated community.
