Yeah its all a bit confusing.
Say, you find an entry in https://beehaw.org/c/creative that you like and you'd like to subscribe to the whole community.
IF someone in your home instance (lemmy.ml) has already added ...creative, you can just search for it in "communities" and you can then open and subscribe on the righthand side.
IF however you are the first in your home instance to access it, then you have to add it manually.
I do the following (someone more experience may enlighten us if there's a better way):
-
Use https://browse.feddit.de/ to find the community or just copy the link of the main community (in this case https://beehaw.org/c/creative)
-
Be logged in in your homeinstance, click on the magnifying glass top right to search and then paste the link and search. The community will show up as a link and you can go there and subscribe.
Edited for some clarity.
Heck, I might even quit the lurkin' life if the trend stays that positive hehe.
It all reminds me a bit of the good old times of early reddit. People who are ready for conversation, relatively few trolling (and worse) and just a community or rather communities in the truest sense of the word.
But also I dont know how it is from a mods perspective.
I am enjoying it so far. I usually tend to lurk but the community is, as many have said, very welcoming and it creates an atmosphere where it encourages you to contribute (not just with up/downvotes but also comments).
Dont know why you are downvoted. The issue with porn is basically moderation.
You can make a porn sub right now if beehaw.org allows it. (if it doesnt, there are others that allow it)
But it will get flooded with bot spam, loli shit and other illegal and NSFL stuff. That you should remove almost immediately or otherwise it becomes a legal concern for all involved.
You could also set up a whole new instance as well (as far as I understood the whole federation thing) but that would add additional costs for server resources, especially if people shall be able to upload pictures & videos themselves for example.
But if you can do it, more power to you! I might even stop by ๐
The most pathetic performance of an AMA in the history of AMAs. Maybe ever.
already exists, but only 3 subs and no content. you can search for it here: https://browse.feddit.de/
I've got my politics, I've got my world news, techstuff, gaming & memes. I'd like to see picture subs like earthporn more populated. They're currently pretty empty. Also missing content in my regional Austria sub but that will solve itself if the reddit exodus continues.
In all seriousness: I am trying. Hard to break the habit of lurking. But on the other hand I'll often upvote something, so thats engagement right there :-)
edit: also since someone said "less memes" - I'd recommend you this watch on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
If you want me to comment, there will be SOME memes. Heck, look at OP's handle, how did you expect me NOT to do it? :O
You say a lot of sad truths there.
Of course it is not Trumps responsibility that our planet goes to shit. That people get more alienated from each other in general. That hate and fear spread like wildfires while empathy and humanity is in short supply.
But what IS Trumps accomplishment is that he is responsible for giving all those hateful, ignorant people a voice. He normalized saying shit that you'd only dared to share in the company of a few close friends in the past. He normalized the complete lack of empathy towards adversaries. He normalized acting like a complete moron against all evidence. He normalized distrust in science. He normalized abusing a political responsibility for selfpromotion. ... I could go on.
But what is really grinding my gears behind that context is, that he normalized all that shit not only in the US, but basically worldwide due to the insane reach he had as US president. Parties in my home country are beginning to do exactly the same shit, not on full-removed level yet but we will get there.
/rant sorry
Honestly I didnt expect much else. The AMA announcement alone was downvoted to hell.
Why he even did it, knowing already that he wont change his mind, is a question for smarter minds than me. There was nothing to gain as far as I can see.
Doubling down on defaming the apollo creator was just the cherry on top.
What a piece of human garbage. I really wish them (reddit) to fail hard at this point.
