It was a bit slow lately. But what I found really weird is that my feed wasn't being updated earlier today. Using 'hot' generally has posts from 1-2 hours ago and it was being shown posts from 4+ hours ago.
It's all back to normal now so it's all good.
Read an interesting idea today. Let subs become unmoderated free for all so chaos would reign. Not gonna lie, I'd like to see what it would become hahaha.
Yeah, I'm feeling a bit lost here too. I've been using mostly 'hot' (found this post using it), but there's also the issue with dynamic posts, that suddenly there's a cascade of posts being loaded and you lose where you were on the feed.
Does this momentary overload impact the feed across instances? I was testing it today and was getting different feeds on different instances, even though I had the same settings ('all', active, hot, new comments, etc.). I had the impression that the 'all' feed would be the same in every instance, considering that they are federating somewhat the same instances.
I'm no expert, but probably has to do with collecting data and showing ads. And also having more control of how people interact with the platform (new desktop interface + official app).
It was sort of expected, unfortunately. Let's see if they keep doing it to other subs and how things will go if they keep removing mods.
Agreed. Also their hardware and software integration, long term support, and battery when compared to other flagship phones, although the s23 seems to be on par with iPhones this time around.
I'm on mobile but using lemmy through a browser and could find the community you mentioned.
You press the hamburger menu on the top right, then the magnify lens icon and paste it there, with 'all' selected.
You could argue that he’s trying to tank the company
I'm kinda lost here. What's his end goal with it?
Oh didn't know that. Thanks!
That's what I've doing more or less. Find a community and edit the URL to sub from Beehaw. Wish there's a way to be more streamlined and easy to sub from my home instance.
Can I subscribe to another instance (not a community within an instance)?
So I stumbled on this instance https://lemmy.directory/ and wanted to sub to it so I can find more communities and posts, but I can't seem to find how to sub to the instance itself, not any of the communities within this instance. Is this possible? Or can I browse this instance's "all" from beehaw?
Thanks in advance!
I have faced this issue a couple of times already. What fixed it was to force close the app and open it again.
That is... competely unintuitive 🤨... like why not just have a spyglass icon there, why the hamburger thing 🤨... maybe it's a bug 🤷.
Agreed hahaha.
What bugs me is the URL handling, it keeps redirecting me to a browser, then I have to copy the instance-community link and copy it back here for the search 😒.
The search redirects me within the app, but links for communities in comments seem to open in the browser. Seems that that are still some bugs here and there in the app.
It's the 3 stacked lines icon on the bottom bar, beside the Home icon. It seems like that if you input part of the community name, it'll find it, but it doesn't seems to find communities by topic or anything like that.
I loved people's reaction when they saw someone link a setting for the first time hahaha. Someone recommended jerboa over reddit and that's what I'm using for now, but it seems to get buggy sometimes and it logs me out, then I have to force close it to log back in.
Super sad about sync. Ljdawson won me over when he implemented a swipe action that I asked and am probably one of the few who uses it. Sad times.
