Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.
Subcommunities on Beehaw:

OT: In Jerboa (lemmy app), why does clicking those community links open in a browser?
My understanding is that if I want to engage with a community on another instance, I need to "go to" that community from my own instance.. right?
But when Jerboa opens the community in a browser, I can't subscribe or anything since at that point I'm "on" the other instance, which of course has no idea who I am.
For Jerboa, if it's not on one of the instances it is set to open, it'll default to your browser.
They're working on expanding it past their default list, but to enable those long press on Jerboa > App Info > Open by default > toggle the enable button and turn on all the links.
Those instances will now open in Jerboa.
Yep, just did that it works great, but will only work for the included domains.
same thing happens to me in a web browser and in the ios app (mlem)
probably just one of those early-tech things the devs need to work through and find a better implementation
it's a bit cumbersome, but you have to copy the text of the community and search for it from your own instance's search box
Unapologetic shill time:
Ya'll gonna have to nerd out with me now. 😎
Check out !newcommunities@lemmy.world for new communities that pop up. :)
Mander.xyz seems to be such an amazing instance. Science based. It is sad that it doesn't have as many users as I had hoped.. Science ftw.
Only a matter of time. :)
I feel little bit like cheater - I am not on beehaw that often.
I mostly post on homebrewing community on https://sopuli.xyz/c/homebrewing
Trying to grow it because I loved brewing subreddits.
https://programming.dev/ is a programming focused server. It has communities for a few different languages. It's not too popular yet but I hope it will be in the future.
Mandatory email when other instances have optional is a bit difficult for me to go through
You don't have to create an account on the instance to subscribe to their communities.
You can, for example, search for !programming@programming.dev to index that community from your home instance.
I created lotrmemes@midwest.social for those of you that like lotr memes
It would be nice to see a new home for Tabletop Game Design; much enjoyed the discussions around both role playing and board/card games alike.
https://feddit.de has a few German language communities of you're interested in such stuff.
Machen wir das hier auch wie auf reddit, dass das Erwähnen eines deutschen Unters sofort alle deutschen Nutzer aus allen Ecken herbeiströmen lässt?
Ich leiste auf jeden Fall meinen Beitrag!
I'm really hoping https://kbin.social/m/folklore takes off, but at the moment that server has disabled federation because they're having trouble scaling up to handle all the new traffic. The creator translates a lot of German folklore into English and seems very passionate about folklore and mythology.
Today I also learned about !germany@feddit.de for English language discussion about Germany.
Also be sure to x-post these to !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca.
Also search for stuff at !lemmy411@lemmy.ca
https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/freemediaheckyeah is a piracy focused instance. Pretty dope, plus I didn't get stuck in registration limbo they just have a basic sign up.
The big things I’ve been missing here are a horror community and a synthwave/outrun/vaporwave aesthetics community. I might have to just make my own.
!sailing!sailing@lemmy.world
My husband created this for sailing enthusiasts and it’d be awesome to see it get more active. You don’t have to be an experienced sailor. Just enthusiasm for the hobby/sport!
I made !curlyhair@lemmy.world as an alternative to r/curlyhair. You can also search for new communities at !newcommunities@lemmy.world.
I still don't quite understand how to subscribe to other communities on this thing.
I did the following on Jerboa
Having said that, there's probably a simpler way to do this. Still early in the learning process.
I will normaly just go to the community on the instance of the community and then on the right side (don't know about mobile) there is:
" You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosting@slrpnk.net "
on my instance you also have to add to the search that all servers schould be searched. And then it works out.
Also some of links when I start brwosing the fediverse from my instance also bring me to the community without leaving my home instance but i didn't figured this out jet.
Does anyone know how to add new instances to the Lemmy Community Browser? It doesn't have the one I'm from nor the communities from it. Are they automatically scraping communities somehow or is there a dev we can ask them to add new communities and instances to?
I made !uraniumglass@lemmy.villa-straylight.social for collectors of uranium glass to show off their finds!
!hentai@lemmynsfw.com
For people interested in Permaculture! https://permies.com/forums
Well this just introduced me to a new community. I've always wondered about putting ideas regarding sustainability into practice...
!cats@midwest.social
!boardgames@feddit.de
(can't figure out the links...)
It's certainly something to see all the different instance names :)
!visualnovels@lemmy.comfysnug.space Is a fresh community for discussing everything Visual Novel related. Hope it grows.
I suppose it's my time to shine! (Self promotion time)
!board_games@lemmy.ca !tabletop_rpgs@lemmy.ca Drop on in!
If you're the type of gamer who likes to play things at their own pace, and are (mostly) impervious to hype, then !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works is made for you!
Does anyone know why I can see a ChatGPT sub-lemmy on lemmy.ml but can’t on feddit.uk?
I made a new account on feddit.uk to help spread load from lemmy.ml but I can’t see this and some other specific communities that I was subscribed to on the other instance.
Iv tried search all communities etc not just local
https://lemmy.ml/c/chatgpt specifically
That particular community has probably never been fetched by your instance of choice, after searching it wait a couple of seconds and it should appear. From that moment onwards anyone who searches it from your instance should have no problem to find it.
!conlang@lemmygrad.ml for the conlangers out there.
!esperanto@sopuli.xyz por la internacia lingvo.
!ttrpgs@lemmy.blahaj.zone as a TTRPG community
!main@feddit.de als Deutsche Community in Lemmy
