      Hey, if you add a ! at the start of those, they will turn into working links for people on version 18.

          It’s better than the alternative, atm Jerboa crashes when you try to give it relative links… Open links to communities in is gonna need some updates.

            For me (Lemmy version 0.18.0, Jerboa version 0.35), it follows the links, but gets all fucky. The header is correct for the community, but the posts are all from my default homepage (subscribed communities, sorted by hot). And if I click and posts, the app crashes.

      Formatted for easy navigation once your instance has upgraded to the current version. Clicking the link should take you to a version of the community linked from your instance. Feel free to comment with any broken links you know the answer to.

              Another tip, you can use lists to make stuff more compact without so much space between lines.

              • like
              • this
              • or my other comment in this thread
              • just add - and a space in front of each line
              • you can of course use preview to make sure it works

        Hey so I see there’s a few different instances for TodayILearned, are they all considered unique? Like would it be /TodayILearned1 /TodayILearned2 and so on if they were on Reddit, separate communities? Or are community names unique throughout the fediverse?

          They are considered unique communities although they could cover the same topic. It’s a lot like an email address that way, you can have [email protected] and [email protected]. They are unique addresses, but they can have the same name before the at sign.

          Something i would like to see in future development is some sort of multi-reddit type feature to combine multiple similar communities into one grouping

          They are separate communities each on a different server. You will encounter a bunch of duplicate communities on various servers for the big topics (news, technology, gaming, etc.)

    Nothing specific but swapping to Lemmy I realized that it was a lot of big subs but not smaller video game subs :( so I guess in general if there are games you play, go be active in those communities!

        Ehh, old hold off judgment for now. There are some serious concerns about over moderation. I was banned recently for trying to discuss community standards when after making a post from a clickbaity site. Took out someone else too who agreed with me on a different community

            It’s the same mods that ran r/startrek. They’re notorious for being ban happy especially if you have anything negative to say about nutrek. They also got other alternative trek subreddits banned for people that didn’t want to deal with their moderation. Of all the things I hope to leave over in Reddit are toxic power mods and r/startrek mods are a prime example.

            I wouldn’t put it past them to defederating any other instance that has a trek community negative towards startrek.website.
