There’s also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn’t matter!

MyMulligan ( @MyMulligan@lemmy.one ) 12•1 year agoI think the reddit hug of love is affecting things today on the 12th.
Just a general question, on a mobile device is using your browser or an app the better experience? And if using an app is Jaebra the one most people use?
girthero ( @girthero@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoI’m actually impressed it seems to be holding up rather well from what I’m seeing. Is there anywhere to view the uptick in traffic?
BrainisfineIthink ( @BrainisfineIthink@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoWas just wondering about that. Jerboa pushed a major update today so I thought it was that, but on desktop I am getting 403’s and timeout galore today. Just try to be patient - growing the platform is a GOOD thing, but real people host these instances in most cases, and fixes take resources!
I prefer the browser to apps personally, this is actually one of the main reasons I like Lemmy over Reddit and it’s unusable mobile view. You’ll find plenty of mobile app users here too and it sounds like it works fine, I’ll just caution that some (all?) of them sound like they’re feature-incomplete, so if you ever think something is missing from Lemmy, double-check on the website first, because it might just not be added to the app yet.
BrainisfineIthink ( @BrainisfineIthink@lemmy.one ) 6•1 year agoYeah, most of them are still in Alpha. It’s fun to see them grow and change with each update, but you are correct that many features are either broken/incomplete or just missing from them at this point. They’re doing a terrific job with Jerboa, for anyone looking for an android client. It’s very usable!
nLuLukna ( @nLuLukna@lemmy.one ) 11•1 year agoTheres some sciencey ones on Mander.xyz :
Mander has a list that is really long of many different disiplines so I just grabbed the ones that I thought would of intrest

nickajeglin ( @nickajeglin@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year agoHave you seen a good general math one yet?
nickajeglin ( @nickajeglin@lemmy.one ) 4•1 year agoSelf replying to say: I just joined !math@lemmy.ml
ojmcelderry ( @ojmcelderry@lemmy.one ) 10•1 year agoI’ve also found this post to be really helpful:
The growing list of subreddits going to be dark, but these are Lemmy or /kbin equivalents
redditrefugee ( @redditrefugee@lemmy.one ) 1•1 year agoWhat does 30+M, 20+M, etc mean, subscribers?
xffxe4 ( @xffxe4@lemmy.one ) 3•1 year agoI think thats the number of subs that the subreddit had.
Prox ( @Prox@lemmy.one ) 1•1 year agoYes. “30+M” means “over 30 million subscribers”.
Melody Fwygon ( @Melody@lemmy.one ) 9•1 year agoWe’re open for all!~
Ratboy ( @ratboy@lemmy.ml ) 9•1 year agoWork Reform & Unionizing! - !workreform@lemmy.world
helloworld55 ( @helloworld55@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoJust wanted to say, thanks for hosting this instance! I’m a reddit refuge and this Lemmy instance has been really straightforward on how to get started.
Percy ( @Percy@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoTime to wait for the cat ones
GuyDudeman ( @GuyDudeman@lemmy.one ) 4•1 year agohttps://lemmy.one/c/aww@lemmy.ml you mean?
hemmes ( @hemmes@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year ago
ctrl_alt_cheat ( @ctrl_alt_cheat@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoI am using the Jerboa app for Lemmy, and I am able to subscribe to communities via the search tab. How do I then view posts from my subscribed communities within the Jerboa app? Anyone know?
Not sure if I am using the app right…
Edit: looks like updating the app fixed it. Subscriptions now showing up in the left menu.
ObliviousOwl ( @ObliviousOwl@lemmy.one ) 8•1 year agoThanks for the great list and comments! Has anyone found communities for any of these?:
- onebag
- barefoot(running)shoes
- bodyweightfitness/calisthenics
- degoogle
- minimalism
- lifehacks
- gtd(Getting things done)
HSL ( @hsl@wayfarershaven.eu ) 3•1 year agoOnebag has been created! https://wayfarershaven.eu/c/onebag
overby ( @overby@lemmy.one ) 4•1 year agoLink should be createde relative with servername in the format:
[communityName](/c/communityname@server.name)
So linking to Onebag would be: Onebag
Hastur ( @Hastur@sh.itjust.works ) 2•1 year agoBarefoot has been created. Feel free and welcome to add. Greetings from a fellow barefooter.
GuyDudeman ( @GuyDudeman@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year agoHopefully you don’t get any foot fetish weirdos in there.
Ratboy ( @ratboy@lemmy.ml ) 1•1 year agoThere is a degoogle one, I think it’s !degoogle@lemmy.ml
Hhffggshn ( @Hhffggshn@lemmy.click ) 1•1 year agoI wish someone would start a minimalism community.
khoplex ( @khoplex@lemmy.one ) 7•1 year agoI appreciate you taking the time to share! I’ve only messed with Mastodon briefly and the fediverse is a little challenging to navigate at first (in my opinion).
I’ve been a lurker on the subreddit for ages and when I saw your post I decided it was time to check Lemmy out. Thanks for taking the time to set up an instance to keeps the community alive as Reddit implodes. Hopefully this works out or at least can act as a temporary home until we can figure out what is next.
mercan ( @mercan@lemmy.one ) 3•1 year agoyes, very much appreciated!
Sooperstition ( @Sooperstition@lemmy.one ) 7•1 year agoGlad I figured out how to log in. Can’t wait to join the fun!
headie_sage ( @headie_sage@fanaticus.social ) 7•1 year agoJoin us for all your sports talk over at https://fanaticus.social! We’ve got communities for all the major sports and their teams.
I also spent the past week forking the popular game day bot, redball, in order to bring game bots to lemmy! There are still a couple of kinks I’m working out but I’ve begun rolling them out to the teams’ communities, starting with the baseball communities.
Check out:
- !baseball@fanaticus.social
- !cfb@fanaticus.social
- !nfl@fanaticus.social
- !nba@fanaticus.social
- !hockey@fanaticus.social
- !fantasyfootball@fanaticus.social
- !fantasy_baseball@fanaticus.social
- !fantasyhockey@fanaticus.social
And all the teams-specific communities!
lauha ( @lauha@lemmy.one ) 1•1 year agoIs there a community for language learners? More specifically I am interested in learning Swedish.
headie_sage ( @headie_sage@fanaticus.social ) 2•1 year agoI think you replied to the wrong comment. My instance hosts communities for sports :)
lauha ( @lauha@lemmy.one ) 3•1 year agoApparently. I am quite new to Lemmy and still learning the ropes. Probably clicked the wrong reply button :)
Aardonyx ( @Aardonyx@lemmy.one ) 6•1 year agoDoes anyone know if you can hide posts in Jerboa? This post and a lemmy.one welcome post are pinned at the top of my feeds, and they take up a lot of room visually. I’d also like to hide posts I’ve already seen, as on smaller communities I only want to see the occasional new posts, not see the same post from 3 days ago every time.
harelu ( @harelu@lemmy.one ) 4•1 year agoGo to your user settings and uncheck “show read posts”, I just recently found it so I dont know how it works exactly, but im assuming once you open a post it will be considered read, and hidden on mexr refresh
Aardonyx ( @Aardonyx@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year agoThank you, that worked! Although I would prefer to be able to manually hide any posts that I don’t want to see as some posts do have repeat value - but I suppose I can just comment on them or save them (I presume?) for reference.
harelu ( @harelu@lemmy.one ) 1•1 year agoYep, saving works good for that. But yeah, once you open or upvote it, theres no way to undo that, so they will get hidden with that setting off.
