[Answered] How do I subscribe to communities of other Lemmy instances?
On another Lemmy instance, I saw that I was not logged in but could subscribe by putting "[email protected]" into the search field. However, when I put it into the search field of this Lemmy instance, it gives me a comment containing that string, but does not allow me to subscribe.
What is the correct way to do it?
You're viewing a single thread.
For the lemmy.world instance try: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected].
Thanks, that helps me for this. Is this a general way? So I don't put it into any search bar, but just write https://lenny.world/c/(everything without !) or is the emulation community a special case?
Our New User FAQ contains a write-up of exactly what you're trying to do. Hopefully it helps!
That's not the official way but that's how the URL for communities looks like, at least currently. If you want you can automate that with a bookmark on Firefox: https://lemmy.world/comment/332210 (see also my comment there about %S vs %s).
Wow, thanks, that helps a lot!
