I just made a Piefed.social account today. I’m very familiar with reddit, but after the API changes and all the bullshit that’s been happening with the site lately I want something different. How do I see which communities I’m a part of, the equivalent of subreddits I guess? Where do I go to find new ones? Do I need to be in a singe instance to participate? I’d really like to find the Lemmy equivalent of my favorite subreddits from reddit, but I simply don’t know how to do that.
I’m using Lemmy Explorer to search for communities. When I find them it says “Subscribe from Remote Instance: Enter the instance you would like to follow this community from.” I type in piefed.social because that’s what I’m on, but then it gives me a black screen and a not found notice. Most of these are lemmy.world communities so I should be able to subscribe to them, no? Or am I typing in the wrong thing?
