Where's the magnifying glass? I'm very new here and all of this is pretty confusing. Can I get an ELI5? I was able to sign up and I'm not using the Jerboa app on Android and I don't see a magnifying glass anywhere.
Bottom bar. The list icon next to the home icon let's you search on Jerboa.
Unfortunately, searching for comms which your server doesn't know yet, is not yet possible in Jerboa. But things are improving quickly.
You should see it on the top right on the page, i take a screenshot if that doesn't help
New and also very inexperienced- I tried searching for [email protected] but am getting no results. Can someone explain to me like I’m an idiot 😂
What you want to do is search for
@[email protected], basically just replacing the exclamation mark (!) for the @ symbol.Why? Because kbin uses the @ symbol and Lemmy uses the ! symbol for the communities.
Edit: I'm working in an extension for chrome and firefox, it will basically convert the lemmy format
[[email protected]](/c/[email protected])to the kbin format so you just need to click on it.I'm not currently using kbin but this is awesome
Did the same for [email protected] and a few others. This fediverse thing is kinda harder than it needs to be.
