Hello, I decided to join Lemmy through FMHY as my main instance. I’ve been trying to add pathfinder.social to my subscribed instances using the search.
!pathfinder.social. But the instance won’t actually show up. I tried on Jerboa. Then I tried through Chrome but the search brings up posts that have it as a topic but not the instance itself. Still very new to Lemmy so I’m sure I’m doing something wrong I’m just not sure what. I’d appreciate any advice.
Like the other commenter said you would do:
!community_name@instance_running_that_community
Only time you are linked to an instance is when you sign up with a username. Otherwise it’s subscribing to communities across the fediverse.
@Crazytrixsta @LordMagnitude Hey, I have a similar question, what you mean by subscribing to the communities is that I´d be able to see posts made by any Lemmy user in that community?
Reason I ask is, I´ve already subscribed to a couple Lemmy communities but I just see the boosts or replies made by the community to other users´ posts. Not the posts themselves.
@Crazytrixsta @LordMagnitude Forgot to mention that I´m trying to see the post using my Mastodon account.
