First time here for me, and I’m confused as well.
Say there’s a ‘movies’ community on this server, and one on lemmy.ml, and over time the one on ml becomes the definitive one, do I need to have an account on the ml server as well or is there a way to be able to see multiple communities on different servers in my stream?
Thanks for taking the time to help us newcomers out.
You only need one account to access the entire Lemmy network. So you can still access the movies community on lemmy.ml if it does become the definitive one and considering that it's the "main" instance right now, that shouldn't be hard either.
I mean, I'm commenting here in lemmy.world from lemmy.ml
Ah, thanks, that makes sense - I went to ml and it said I needed to register in order to comment, and thought if I found communities on 8 different servers I wanted to post to I’d need to register on each of them and switch every time.
I’ll get used to it.
Are you using a PC or maybe Android Smartphone?
For PC: At your startpage (should be lemmy.world) in the top left should be "Community's". If you click on that you get to the community list. Here you can sort by subscribed/local/all.
Choose "All" to get all possible Communities (subs) from all servers. You can also search for keywords like "gaming". Just click the subscribe button for the communities you're interested and you should be good.
Similar with the Android App. At the bottom menu, the second from the left (looks like a list icon) you get to the community overview/search function. Here you just simply have to search a keyword, visit the community and press the subscribe button.
Hope that helps.
Found it, thanks, and subscribed. Easy when someone helps, thanks.
Thanks. - on IPhone using Firefox. Still just poking around
check out Mlem! You can get via apples Test Flight app for Beta apps. App is pretty intuitive and would you believe has a better sorting function than the official reddit app? Reminds me of Apollo in this way.
