The way Lemmy works right now is you search a community in your instance for it to then get shown, so you need to first discover that community from elsewhere. With that in mind, what are some growing communities that you discovered that could get some more love?
!thescarydoor@kbin.social is a Futurama subreddit that I am shamelessly self-promoting. I hope that’s okay.
Edit: I don’t know how to link it properly, I guess.
To make a system agnostic link, you do it [like this](/c/thescarydoor@kbin.social) for Lemmy. Not sure if kbin has javascript URL rewriting, not tried it. Those URLs also don’t work in Jerboa atm. Gonna take a bit before all the papercuts get solved.
funnily this does not create a hyperlink (atleast on vivaldi) and if I enter that in ALL search the only result is your comment :D. Guess we are all still learning this.
Does this work: !thescarydoor@kbin.social
Try 2: thescarydoor@kbin.social
Not really, from lemmy.ml it ends up being a hyperlink over to the other website instead of a local community reference.
Subscribed! For people on the lemmy side, just searching for https://kbin.social/m/thescarydoor should have it come up.
Thank you! I’m pretty new to all of this and I was just following what everyone else was doing haha
