Thank you!
Why not? What error do you get?
Says have to log in, even though I am already logged in.
Federation takes a little bit of getting used to. Based on your username, you are logged into shi.itjust.works. If you go to any community from that instance you will already be logged in. If you want to be logged in on another instance you have to visit it from your instance. https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected] you will be logged in. https://ttrpg.network/c/rpg you will not be.
oh and when I try to search for those communities - they don't show up. I have to go directcly to their instance. Are they defederated? Is that why?
Not likely. try searching [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) WITH exclamation mark and no filters in the search settings. Give it 5 secs even if it says no results. Refresh if still nothing.
still nothing :(
Try searching with the full url https://ttrpg.network/c/rpg. That's worked for me once when !community@instance didn't.
