People need to realize you can use alternatives

    I don’t really get the difference. And can I visit different servers from the one I’m on? I don’t see a way to on Jerboa

      Jerboa now doesn’t have community search, but you can visit your instance website and subscribe. If it hasn’t needed community, go to community search and put full community name prepended with !, like ! Lemmy@lemmy.ml. then wait for like 10s and do the search again, your instance will fetch it and add to its community list.

        I seem to be able to search for communities, because I found gaming lol. I’m wondering about instances, though

      On jebora on the bottom next to the home button is the community list view and you can search it to find instances. In addition to that from the home page if you click the little filter icon(that one with the three lines creating a triangle shape down) you can select all and it will show you links federated with your instance as well.

        I don’t seem to be able to find instances on the community search, nor do communities show up when I type “!community@instance” could this be a bug?

          Might be

          When I search I’m able to see instances I haven’t joined yet

          And join

          But it’s all still a new app so who knows

            Here’s what I see when I try to type in a community not followed by anyone on my server. There’s no next or anything. The three dots in the upper right corner don’t do anything

              What if you click on this?

              !me_irl@lemmy.ml

              Actually wait this one isn’t working for me either from your instance, but memes did

              Might be an issue with your instance? It works on mine, maybe they just need to update? Actually it seems like both our instances are running on v0.17.3

                Maybe. At least I’m in enough instances now that I can start getting into the groove of things and see what’s up with the site

      I don’t know much about the Android mobile app, but now I’m curious to dig up one of my old phones and try it just to see. I’ve been mostly in a browser either oh my iPhone of MacBook, which is very odd for me as I primarily reddit via the native mobile app.
