I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of
To be fair, I get what they’re saying. It’s awkward to find and subscribe to communities. I can find them on the web UI, but I can’t seem to sub to them, I can’t really find them on the mobile app, but I can sub to them if I happen upon them.
Other than that awkwardness, I like it.
You can only sub to them from your home instance. So you have to go to the communities section of your instance then search for a community, click on it from there, go to the sidebar and subscribe.
To sub to them on the web UI, you have to search for them on whatever instance you’re logged into (using !community@instance syntax), click into the community, and then hit subscribe from there. It took me a bit and some googling to figure out. Also there may be some instances that aren’t connected to each other or something. I don’t quite understand that part yet.
