Lol I just created a post with the same question... because I couldn't search to see if it was asked already XD

This is a must have feature

 

I see how to search FOR communities, but how do I search a specific community for posts or comments?- -

I'm like a 99% mobile user, and the support for that isn't really there.

This jerboa app is not fully functional, community searching is too difficult, and the ones I do try to subscribe to get stuck on pending.

I'll definitely give Lemmy another try after it gets better features and a stable android app.

I just want to say thanks for this discord analogy. It is way more accurate and effective than that "email" analogy I've been seeing

What are you using to browse lemmy?

I'm not a fan of the official reddit app myself, but Jerboa is even worse

This seems like a devisive topic.

The fragmentation is not a feature to me, but something I view as detrimental.

How will this help the posters reach the fragmented communities? Will they just pray that everyone is using the the aggregator?

Yeah I this is my biggest problem, and there's always like 30 people saying "it's not a problem, it's a feature!"

Either they are in denial or I'm just completely incompatible with federation.

Why would I want 100 fragmented communities for the exact same thing? If I wanted to consume content from all of them sure, I could follow all 100 but that is so tedious. Plus what if I wanted to interact with them? I'd have to ask the same question 100 times!
