I think you’re looking for https://github.com/LemmyNet not /c/Technology.

I think it’s getting to be about time to unsub from here until people start to realize this isn’t /c/techsupport /c/reddit /c/ihaveanopinionithinkeveryoneshouldhear etc… This community is meant to be about “Rumors, happenings, and innovations in the technology sphere.”, not whatever issue you are having with whatever app, or whatever latest bs reddit has pulled or worst yet, peoples microblogs about crap they think others should care about.

There are so many proper places for things like that, yet people keep cluttering up this community instead.

Thank you for that

I’m very out of the loop here, what’s going on with beehaw and lemmy.world?

I’ll be honest, the federation thing is very confusing for new users. I have set up my own instance and have pulled a few instances into it (I think that’s the correct terminology), but I still don’t quite understand it all.

One thing I do find frustrating, is most of the content that shows up is from 1 instance (beehaw) and 1 community in that instance (Technology).

I found a few things I’m interested in and added communities to my instance, but all that seems to show up is the one instance and one community. It kind of seems to defeat the purpose. I should have just joined beehaw and stuck with whatever communities they have. Which again, seems to defeat the whole point.

I’m technical enough to set up my own instance on my own server (with a few other federated items on it) but this in particular has proven frustrating. I’m sure someone will come along and tell me I’m doing it wrong, but that’s the point. It shouldn’t be this frustrating or confusing if it wants to succeed.

In fact, I had to log into Beehaw to comment here, as attempting to comment from my instance, just times out.

I’ll be completely honest, I’m still not sure how to see content from other lemmy instances on my feed. Or how to subscribe to them on my chosen server if they haven’t already been added, let alone adding things from kbin.

Relevant username I guess.
