no problem!

put the URL in your browser - for example if you wanted to subscribe to [email protected] it would be https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/[email protected]

then just click subscribe!

I have found this community browser to be the best.

Agree. I had to do some reading to fully understand the fediverse. If there was a portal that just assigned users to a random instance and then put them directly into a community database for them to sub across multiple instances it would be a much easier on boarding.

kbin is having some issues with the influx of new users. will all smooth out over the coming days / weeks as servers scale and stabilize

There is a list of 300+ subs that are staying dark indefinitely. Some have tens of millions of subs. I expect that list will grow as more of this stuff comes out.

There will be spam bots promoting their IPTV services, similar to what would happen on reddit without automod.
