I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of
To be fair, I get what they’re saying. It’s awkward to find and subscribe to communities. I can find them on the web UI, but I can’t seem to sub to them, I can’t really find them on the mobile app, but I can sub to them if I happen upon them.
Other than that awkwardness, I like it.
To sub to them on the web UI, you have to search for them on whatever instance you’re logged into (using !community@instance syntax), click into the community, and then hit subscribe from there. It took me a bit and some googling to figure out. Also there may be some instances that aren’t connected to each other or something. I don’t quite understand that part yet.
You can only sub to them from your home instance. So you have to go to the communities section of your instance then search for a community, click on it from there, go to the sidebar and subscribe.
