I’ve been on lemmy.ml for a while but have not figured out how to join other instances of lemmy (like subreddits?). The couple of other groups ask for a login but my current login doesn’t work. I don’t know how to proceed or where to look for a guide. Thanks for any assistance.
If you go to https://lemmy.ml/communities then click All you will see communities from all federated instances. Communities from other instances will have
@<instance>
displayed. If you don’t see one in specific you can search for!<community>@<instance>
(you may have to wait a minute and search a second time if it’s the first time anyone has searched for that community).As far as browsing those other communities, that will be https://lemmy.ml/c/<community>@<instance>. For example https://lemmy.ml/c/guitars@lemmy.world
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !guitars@lemmy.world
