CmdrModder,

Hey Guys. I'm trying to subscribe to an external communitu (battlemaps@lemmy.world), but i'm not sure what the syntax is for such a search. Manually inputting fedia.io/m/battlemaps@lemmy.world to the URL doesn't seem to help either. Am I missing something?

CmdrModder,

Thanks for the assistance everybody, i'm now successfully subscribed to battlemaps.

The Fedia.IO copy of it is showing no threads, but I assume federation isn't a back porting process and i'll get new posts over time. If anything, there's always the original instance if I want to browse it's history.

Thank you for the help.

That's correct - kbin doesn't tend to drag in old posts, however Lemmy does appear to do this.

CmdrModder,

I see, thank you for the clarification. Maybe thats something that'll change in the future, but only time will tell.

64bitUser,

Try searching for “!battlemaps” with the bang in front

  1. Search for the community in this format on your home server so it indexes: !community
  2. Search for the community name again.
  3. ??? (You possibly need to interact in order to hit the subscribe button, such as a vote)
  4. Profit!!!

Lemmy is still a bit manual due to early development.
