nobody really knows how lemmy works tbh and I have to manage that thing somehow

[–] julianh@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Imagine a bunch of cities run by different mayors. They all run their own cities but people can freely travel between them, go to the restaurants, visit friends, and more. If one mayor goes insane the other mayors can ban citizens from visiting their city. But there's only so much power one mayor has since they're under the state government.

Congrats, you now understand federalism. Idk how Lemmy works either.

I think I've seen one explanation of it that didn't leave me more confused than when I started and I already forgot it

it's not really necessary to fully understand the concepts behind lemmy, it's just like reddit when it comes to usage, but not everything is visible right away, sometimes you need to look up and subscribe to a community for it to be synced with this instance here and it'll show up. There is also https://browse.feddit.de/ to discover communities. Oh and if you clink on a link that points to another instance like lemmy.ml or lemmy.blahaj.zone it'll basically log you off, so don't do that, just use links that look like !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone, for example. All that is left is to enjoy the experience :)

Exactly, "similar." I'm subscribed to about ten communities, and they're not in my feed. But there are others, and they hang in the newsfeed all the time. When I try to open some of them, they don't open, and there is no indication that they are private feeds anywhere.blahaj for example.

Are you sure you have "subscribed" selected at the top of the feed? Also you should probably use "hot" instead of "active" for sorting if you don't like seeing old posts. There is also an option to hide posts that you've already seen in settings.

!196@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Is this supposed to be a link? Just looks like text to me

Sorry, I fixed it, but even if it doesnt light up you can just search for it
