+1 Thanks for sharing this information! I know that there’s going to be a bit of a learning curve for the new platform and I appreciate you helping us all out!
I will normaly just go to the community on the instance of the community and then on the right side (don’t know about mobile) there is:
"
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosting@slrpnk.net
"
on my instance you also have to add to the search that all servers schould be searched. And then it works out.
Also some of links when I start brwosing the fediverse from my instance also bring me to the community without leaving my home instance but i didn’t figured this out jet.
it’s when you format a link like this /c/community@instance, instead of the full url. Example Link so regardless of your particular server instance, that link will stay local, if the linked community is not yet synced (federated) it will 404 though, that will happen a lot for a the first few weeks of growing this service, particularly if you are on a smaller server that might be updating slower or is under strain.
I still don’t quite understand how to subscribe to other communities on this thing.
I did the following on Jerboa
Having said that, there’s probably a simpler way to do this. Still early in the learning process.
Overall, this is the biggest issue with jerboa. Not being able to get to other communities on other instances makes discovery next to impossible
Just use the upper left menu to switch to “all”. That’s what I am doing right now in jerboa.
Good on you giving useful instructions for everyone . I got stuck with the wrong order of instance then community and was confused for a while
