Now that we’re no longer linked to lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works we can’t subscribe to their communities any more.

How affected were your subscriptions? How many of your subs stopped working?

My subs were mostly beehaw and lemmy.world so I’m looking for new stuff. :)

Do you have some tips for interesteing communities on other instances?

    Yeah, I’ve been exploring kbin a bit as well… I do miss having a dedicated app though.

    Plus I like it here so it would be nice to keep this as my home base!

      In case I was unclear, you can keep this as your home base, now - you can subscribe to kbin communities from Lemmy as of (I believe) yesterday afternoon.

        True but actually using kbin instead gives access to both beehaw and lemmy.world for instance.

          It’s pretty cool to have so many options. We can have one account that sees more instances, or several separate accounts that see all those instances, or create our own instance: population 1 that sees all.

            It’s like discovering the internet for the first time all over again. :D

            That’s how I went. Time will tell if it eats storage etc, but so far I’m loving the control I have over who to federate with.
