[META] Greetings From lemmy.world
Hi everyone!
I just realised sometimes you can't see posts from other instance's community if no one from your own instance has joined (or even posted/commented?). So I'm here from lemmy.world to say hello to the community, and also for users from my instance to be able to see this community.
From my understanding, the number of subscribers you see when you searched for the community only shows users from your own instance. For example, when I searched for [email protected] it showed 0 subscriber, because there wasn't anyone from my instance (lemmy.world) who had subscribed yet. Hopefully, now it would show at least 1, if anyone from world wants to sign up.
There were some discussions going on the lemmy.world's [email protected] community. But I realised that was a mastodon community where not only users from lemmy can't see the more active discussions on mastodon, but also ONLY users from the same instance (and apparently mastodon users?) can interact with each other. I created an account on another instance and it displayed a completely different kind of posts.
My thinking is that since Kdrama is still considered a relatively "niche" interest, especially among lemmy users, it would probably be best to combine our users for the time being, rather than having a handful of users on every instance who'd prefer to lurk but nothing to lurk about since no one's talking/posting.
Anyway, hope this is ok.
You're viewing a single thread.
Sounds good to me, it's pretty dead over here. Still not sure how the communities between instances work because I cannot see anything in the kdrama[email protected] instance you mentioned.
I'd love to see all posts across all federations though.
So this is how it looks from my end on [email protected] community.
Yea I thought we could at least see the same posts across the fediverse, including those on mastodon, but apparently not yet. I'm still learning about fediverse, particularly lemmy, but I can see why people gets put off with it since it's not as easy to use as Reddit.
Haha, I believed you saw content just saying nothing is showing for me on lemmy.ml and actually not on mastodon surprisingly. Oh well, hope we can generate a community regardless!
