    I did the following on Jerboa

    • save this post (we’ll be revisiting this a few times)
    • go to the search function that is indicated by the bulleted list icon
    • enter the community name (without the @… part)
    • there’ll be a few results
    • tap on them, see the posts if you want, and tap the subscribe button and see that it shows joined
    • go to saved posts, repeat until subscribed to every community you want

    Having said that, there’s probably a simpler way to do this. Still early in the learning process.

      Overall, this is the biggest issue with jerboa. Not being able to get to other communities on other instances makes discovery next to impossible

        Just use the upper left menu to switch to “all”. That’s what I am doing right now in jerboa.

      +1 Thanks for sharing this information! I know that there’s going to be a bit of a learning curve for the new platform and I appreciate you helping us all out!
