I cant search for some communities that show up in newcommunities, and I hear that thats because no one on my instance has been to them yet. Well, how do I be the first one? I cant join by searching because it wont show up, and if I click on a link there it takes me out of the app to that communities instance, and logs me out, and I cant log in because I only have the option to log in to their instance which I dont have an account on.

    That doesnt seem to be working in Jerboas search bar, searching for communities I know exist that way doesnt pull any results. Is there a setting im missing, or am I searching in the wrong area? Im using the button second from the left on the bottom, looks like a bulleted list to search.

    • Same here. I always have to search for and subscribe to new communities through a browser. And after that, I have to kill the app and open it again for the new community to show up in my list. There might be a different way to reload the community list, though. Just haven’t found it, yet.

        Yah, I couldn’t get it to work either. Tried several times. Quite frustrating.
