Yeah I’m wanting to implement that into liftoff. That’s the main feature I’ve been wanting in apps.
To clarify this app is a resurrection of an abandoned Lemmy app, when this app was active Lemmy was not as popular and we didn’t have massive instances like Lemmy world. Working through this is a fun challenge but it’s also a user experience challenge. What instance are you having issues with?
Well, many, to be honest. I have a few accounts, 2 on sh.itjust.works and 1 on lemmy.fmhy.ml. Some communities appear in results on one instance, others don’t, and vice versa. If you try to open up the community via your instance (my.instance/c/community@another.instance), it just returns a 404 🤷. This happens on both lemmy.fmhy.ml and sh.itjust.works. For example, I can see and join the OpenBSD community from my account on lemmy.fmhy.ml, but not from either of my accounts on sh.itjust.works. I can see other communities on that instance just fine, but that particular community, no.
And this happens with a lot if other communities as well, the OpenBSD one stuck in my mind cuz I really wanted to be in that one with all of my accounts, but I can only be with just 1 account.
Oh, and the pending thing 😒. The pending communities show up in my feeds, yet they’re still marked as pending. Cancel pending, subscribe again, wait a few days… yep, still pending.
It’s buggy, I know, but it’s new and all new things are, so I don’t really mind. I was meaning to make a bug report regarding some of these bugs on Lemmy, just haven’t gotten around to it.
PS: All of the searches regarding the communities were done in the web UI, so it’s not a Jerboa bug, it’s a Lemmy bug.
