I was wondering about libreddit and teddit as well lol.
Reddit's announcement made me open lemmy to check the discussion happening here lol. Now I'll check hackernews as well.
Also, can someone help me access other instances from the jerbora app? I'm a bit new to lemmy. I can't seem to get it working by following the official help pages. The three dot on the top right of the search bar tab doesn't seem to work and I'm not sure what that is for.
You can subscribe to federated communities that have already been connected, within the jerboa UI. Click the communities button at the bottom, then go to them.
But unfortunately you can't do the initial connection yet within jerboa.... that only works through the lemmy-ui search bar atm.
Thanks for the answer. I'll give it a try.
Update: I got it working. Thanks a bunch.
How do you do a search for a not yet federated community through the lemmy ui anyway? For instance, if I try to get this quantum computing community from lemmygrad, every time I try to search for it I can't find it. This is the query I'm using
Your query looks fine... might be something going on with that community specifically. I just tried this one and it worked fine: https://lemmygrad.ml/c/biology@mander.xyz
When you searched for that community, what was your query? Was it the full url (i.e. https://lemmygrad.ml/c/biology@mander.xyz), or was it !@?
Either format should work, you can test it with other as yet unfederated communities.
