Interacting on instances which are not yet discoverd and connected to instance where we are registered is pain in the ass. Copying URL into search bar? That is really repelling. I’m sure it was discussed before but I can’t find this discussion. How to make it easier? Do devs need to make changes to protocol or it’s enough and it can be done within the apps themselves? How close are we to the solution?
The easier way is to use lemmyverse.net’s search after you set your home Instance, then when you open a link, it’ll open it from your instance which triggers it to federate.
Dude try search any lemmy.word group in there. Either it doesn’t work or someone is filtering them off.They appear now.There was a bug that prevented instances running old versions from showing up, perhaps it’s back?
They’re back
Yay! Wonder what caused the outage.
They were still there a few days ago
They do not appear at the moment. Something is probably broken.
