Thank you. I’ve found one of the communities with the search functionality.

You’re awesome tho!

I think the concept is intuitive and interesting, but the implementation/interface isn’t.

My overall journey was the GameFAQS message boards -> Digg -> Reddit (via RIF) -> Lemmy

Lemmy has filled my content aggregation desires while boycotting Reddit. Overall, I could see being here to stay

I’m still having minor issues, but they aren’t deal breakers. Like, I’ve had issues with my up votes not saving (press it, turns blue, wait a second, then it changes back), so I need to press it multiple times before it saves. On the whole, these errors will be resolved with time, so it doesn’t bother me much

Main issue I’m trying to figure out now is: how to use federated users for other Lemmy instances. If I’m using the website for beehaw, then go to another instance, it appears I need to sign in, but I can’t see how to use my beehaw account. I started using Jerboa and it seems to handle it, but the comments I’m making don’t show up (when I checked in a browser), so it might be in the UI only, or I’m missing something

You have :vim: in your user’s “tags” (flair? desc? Idk). I haven’t found a good vim community on Lemmy, so I’m interested if you have a recommendation.

I guess that would make “community discovery” as a particular thing I’m having some difficulty with. Getting better as I’m getting more familiar with everything, but it is a pain point
