  • I think my biggest frustration is feeling like I am missing communities based on my instance. I have 2 accounts on different instances, 1 I created a few weeks ago and 1 I created a few days ago. On my newer account, I couldn’t find half the communities I was looking for unless I dropped a direct link into the search (looking just for the name didn’t turn anything up). And then when I did finally find them, the subscriber number was different (like 1 community had 100+ subscribers on my first account, but the same community only showed like 2 or 3 subscribers on my second account). Anyway I’m sure user error plays a role in this, but it is not intuitive to me, just yet anyway.




  • …the Beehaw users seem to be generally happy with the change.

    Maybe? I honestly don’t know, but it seems like it would be hard for them to tell…? If I understand things correctly, Beehaw defederates (what a word…) and now no one sees posts / communities from, say, sh.itjust.works, right? So no one really knows what they’re missing if they’re on Beehaw? Please correct me if I’m wrong, as that could easily be the case.














  • I just took a look at your instance and love the number of communities over there. I’m on shitjustworks and it’s good, but I definitely subscribed to a few on your instance. What was odd, though, is I couldn’t seem to find them with a simple search…? I had to do an “all” search and use the web address to find them. Probably user error on my part, but I seem to be subscribed now.
