Hey neighbour(Greek here)!

The way federation works, is that although federation is enabled the actual communities are not automatically broadcasted to other instances. If you want your newly created community to be visible to other instances you have to manually add it there by following these steps:

1. Copy the link of you own community. (i.e. https://lemmy.ml/c/greece for mine)
2. Find the instance you it to be visible in (i.e. beehaw.org for you)
3. Go to /communities in that instance
4. Paste your link in the search bar and press Enter. There will be no results but don't worry, it worked.
5. Delete the link from search bar and now type the name of the community (i.e. Turkey for you) and press enter.

You should now be able to see the community there.

Unfortunately each community has to be manually indexes in every instance but I think lemmy.directory is trying to index everything so people can find stuff easier, in there.

I will have to disagree with you on both points.

Point 1: Not finding the settings.

Whenever you join an app, platform or start up a new video game, you need to go to the settings and set your preferences. This is something very logical at the beginning as you have no idea what to expect. Additionally the settings in lemmy/jerboa are very minimal. You can set them up in about a minute. Claiming this is not user friendly is not a valid argument to be honest since Jerboad doesn't have them hidden. It's users who ignore the settings.

Point 2: Some users can’t even figure out how to login using the app.

Lemmy, kbin and mastodon all implement the same protocol named ActivityPub but they all choose to make their front-end fundamentally different despite having access to the same content. This ecosystem doesn't do everything for you and it doesn't claim to. People, including myself, found out about this ecosystem from external resources and not from lemmy itself. It took me about 4 minutes to figure out what to do and where as I actively wanted to figure it out. If people can't bother for 3-4 minutes to figure things out(Even just clicking the Join button) then I don't see what improvement any platform can do to improve this. If anyone clicks on the Join button the go to registration and then to login. It's very different to reddit but very simple.

As I've been using mods for Tears of the Kingdom game there were 2 versions of the DS4 UI prompts mod.

The first one almost never worked and was slowly getting updated so another dude just remade a new one and made it better and for all layouts.

The dude that created the first mod then started sending cringe messages to the new modder about how they look awfully similar and why did he choose to do that.

Dude, you made a mod that changes the letter A icon to the letter O icon. What creative freedom do you think there is to make a unique mod?

instead of other servers?

The fact that when people started joining about a week ago or so, lemmy.ml was at the top of the recommendations in join-lemmy, the fact that it had in its description that lemmy.ml is ran by the developers of lemmy and the jerboa app so people assumed this is the correct one and lastly, unfortunately during that time the only alternative instances at the top of the recommendations was lemmygrad and I don't remember the other one that screamed communism so people flocked to other ones.

Yes they do.

I have already contributed to the documentation of backend and it has been approved and merged.

Here are all the repos connected to Lemmy.

I don't mind waiting. I got plenty of games to play.

This dude's channel is hilarious. Especially the Senior JS one.

It was in the news a while ago.

The vast majority of games shown today were pretty meh, imo, this not exactly but still not the best.

Does blizzard ever do sales? I have 40€ in bnet balance since 2016 and it would be good to pay ~40-50€ for D4.

I logged in about 3 hours ago and was browsing Lemmy.ml. While looking around, I got suddenly logged out. I pressed "Log in" and it immediately logs me back in and on the top right, my username was "Unwarlike".

I can only assume this was someone else's account and the app messed something up.

I pressed logout and then logged back in and it went back to normal.

I think there are a few bugs that need ironing our in lemmy's codebase.

Edit: It happened again.

The more people there are in the instance your account is with, the more issues Jerboa has.
