Lots already. Of course depends on what your interest are. For ex. my subs
Edit: Fixed links for desktop, no idea if it works the same for mobile apps
Write it like
[/c/sublemmy@lemmy.server](/c/sublemmy@lemmy.server)and it will link correctly. If it's giving you a 404 error just wait a minute and try again, the server needs to download the sub firstIf you format your links like this...
/c/monero@monero.town
the links will be clickable and the user can subscribe to them from their home instance.
Thanks, I don't know the proper way of formatting yet as it seems to depend on who you ask. Early days still.
Edit: Getting a 404 error when following that link on my sh.itjust.works instance. Think this is part of the problem.
To make the link work,
Had to do all that to make the link work. 🤦
Yeah this looks like a pain point at the moment. I'm going with "I'm a newb to lemmy's way of linking" by default as I'm sure I'm just doin it wrong. If not, hopefully that can be made more seamless, or the knowledge of how to do it the right way can spread far enough that it becomes a non-issue.
It's taken me awhile to figure out stuff. I'm still confused about certain things as well.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I'm still a newb but I've managed to learn a lot the last week or so
Thanks! I did have a question about comments.
When I view an external post from my home instance, it has less comments than the source. Does it eventually catch up? How long does that take usually?
Here's screenshots of what I'm talking about. My home instance is monero.town and the post has 39 comment. When I click the rainbow fedilink icon that takes me to the source instance at beehaw it has 70 comments.
Will my home instance eventually show 70 comments as well? It's a 2 day old article. How long does it take?
I feel like I'm missing out if I don't go to the original source every time. But if I go the original source, I won't be able to comment or upvote because I'll be on their instance instead of my home instance.
Do I have to creat an account for each instance? I don't understand :(
No not at all. Just try pasting
https://lemmy.ml/c/piracynewsInto the search page. It should bring up a link to the community in the search results, maybe immediately if someone from dbzer0.com has already subscribed there, if not it might take a few seconds. You should be able to follow the link in search and subscribe in the sidebar once you get there.
