“Hi, I come from Reddit and I am new to this world. After trying it for a while, I don’t understand why there is not a Search button here? I know the icon at the bottom, which you can use to search for communities, but the icon is a bit difficult to realize. Also I can’t still find how to search for contents on Lemmy.

I mean searching for threads by keywords. For example "lemmy search button" then I get this thread.

So, this isn't exactly a "button" like you were hoping for but maybe try this site and bookmark it if you like it and find it meets those needs for now...

They're using Jerboa on Android in dark mode... What "official" client are you talking about?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, that is Jerboa 0.0.33 on Google Play. Tried the dark mode but got the same icons.
