Back in the day, using Reddit, I only subscribed to one or two subs and would just type the name in Rif search to go to another. Jerboa doesn’t allow that, and search doesn’t always find the community. So when I see a post from a community I want to return to, I’m subscribing to it.

  1. Is this a good idea? Is it causing increased load on the server end?

How are you managing communities?

Edit: thank you for all the replies. Very helpful.

    Could someone tell me what jerboa is? That’s the second time today I’ve seen that name.

      Literally it’s a small rodent kinda like a lemming, here it’s an android app for browsing whatever Lemmy instances/ communitys your apart of ✌️

      It’s sn Android app that makes using Lemmy look and feel a little more like Reddit and other similar platforms
