    I just joined after Apollo stopped working. I’ve been over at squabbles since the black out. No idea how this place works. Excited to dig in and figure it out though!

      welcome!

      edit: just realized this isn’t even my instance but w/e, welcome to the fediverse!

      2 things that really helped me: https://browse.feddit.de/ to find communities then search in the communities tab with name like [email protected]

      if it doesn’t pop up try typing [email protected] then [email protected] again to see if it comes up

      basically new communities wont show on your community search tab until someone else on your server has searched and subscribed or interacted

      If you aren’t sold on the interface then check out wefwef.app. No affiliation - just spreading the gospel. It feels like Reddit on Apollo, but here instead.

      Same—finally had to do the thing, and my god, finding communities to follow has GOT to get a lot easier if this is gonna work out
