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.

Now that we're no longer linked to lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works we can't subscribe to their communities any more.

How affected were your subscriptions? How many of your subs stopped working?

My subs were mostly beehaw and lemmy.world so I'm looking for new stuff. :)

Do you have some tips for interesteing communities on other instances?

I don't think I subbed to anything on those two instances, so I'm not affected at all. I only recently switched to subscribed on the front page too as default so if I missed anything from them, I haven't noticed. Beehaw have grown large and active enough to make up most of my front page at this point.

I think out of all the federated subs I have, the active an interesting ones to me are coming out of programming.dev. I also sub to a few fediverse related ones, one of which actually posted about Beehaw's decision to defederate from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.work. There were some takes that miss the point. There were also those who defended Beehaw's decision too. It was interesting to see the interactions unfold.

Can you tell me how you switched your default to "Subscribed"? I can't find the option.

[–] mifuyne@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure!

Go into your Settings, then scroll down until you see this section: A section of Lemmy's user settings. 'Type' and the options, 'Subscribed', 'Local', and 'All' are in a red outlined box.

I've highlighted the option that you need to change to see your Subscribed communities' posts

Hope that helps!

Don't know why I couldn't see it before lol. Thank you!

Honestly, it's understandable. Personally, I find it poorly labelled and it's wedged in between other options of nearly the same size.
