was worried i would never see you guys again ! <3
I‘m glad to have you too, the Reddit behaviour was making me nauseous and I was worried I couldn‘t find a good community to replace it. Then I discovered this instance and explored Lemmy a bit further, made some more accounts elsewhere and jumped around and it’s NICE! So excited to be here.
If you find juggling multiple accounts to be a bit of a hassle, my recent chapter about subscriptions might be of interest. In short though: you can use one account to access all of Lemmy, but there’s a few specific steps you need to follow to subscribe to other communities on external servers.
Thank you, that is indeed helpful, didn‘t know about the search either. Still all so hard to deal with cause as soon as I tried to upvote that post I had to login again and that is pretty much how I ended up with what is by now 5 accounts.
Out of the accounts you choose to be your main, don’t use Beehaw.org - they’ve unconnected from the rest of the instances
I had the same reaction, it’s good to find a new nook
Sometimes the waves push us apart but we eventually find our way back matey! Arrrrrrr
Glad to have found this community back. Lemmy feels like home now!

Hi, first post here. I noticed the newyuzupiracy subreddit was recently banned, does that have a community here?
Yes!
We really need a way to more easily access comms from other instances, or to sort comms by instance. I’d like to subscribe to most dbzer0 comms but finding them in the All list is a pain.
I don’t know if this cat help you at all but here you got.
Thanks, but really I mean finding the comms in other instances from within my own instance, such that I can subscribe to them remotely. Finding the comms is easy, you can just go to the other instance (eg open up lemmy.dbzer0.com) but in order to subscribe from another instance you need to go into Communities, click All, then search for them one by one. The Communities list needs a way of filtering All by instance.
Also, it would be nice if all of this could be done from within Jerboa. Jerboa only seems to search comms you’ve already subscribed to. Right now subbing to comms is best done in a web browser.
I did a post with some communities local to this instance

I too didn’t know what I was missing out on, since I was only initially subscribed to piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy so didn’t know about all the other communities in this instance coming from https://lemmy.fmhy.ml.
Yeah you can find lists of instances all over, but to subscribe to them you have to go to the instance you’re logged into, go into communities, click all and then cross reference the list and search for them one by one.
I just want to be able to browse other instances’ comms from within my own instance, so I can subscribe to them directly. A simple option of filtering the all list by instance.
You don’t have to search one by one, you can type the community name in the search box. Still clunkier than I’d like, but not too bad.
You can type the community names, one by one. However you have to know the name of the comment to do that.
What you can’t do is type the instance name into the search or otherwise filter by instance, so that you can discover and add multiple comms from that instance in one go.
Damn though Reddit shit and all of their drama. We need a new place to discuss piracy anyway.
