  • Welcome and I hope you enjoy interacting in this space!

    One thing to note is that communities across the instances (lemmy.ml being an instance) will have varying content and vibe, and may differ from what you might expect of an instance. So if you’re selective with the communities you subscribe to and typically only scroll through your Subscribed front page, filtering out lemmy.ml might not be necessary.














  • Assuming you’re viewing on mobile, at the top of the page, there should be a Sidebar button. Click that and it will expand the sidebar. There should now be a Subscribe button for you to subscribe to the community.

    Note that the URL should look something like <local instance url>/c/<remote channel>@<remote instance hostname>. For example, my local instance is Beehaw too and I’m trying to view AskLemmy on lemmy.ml, so it should be something like beehaw.org/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml



  • In the search bar in the side drawer, you should be able to search for something like connect or lemmyconnect. Give it a few seconds to search and load up the search results. One this community shows up, you should be able to click it!

    The screenshot you’re sharing is the raw markup of Beehaw’s custom error page. I think it’s getting rendered because it’s a different result from what other “typical” Lemmy instance would return in an error - either a status code or a specific error string. You can swipe it down to return to the previous view I’m pretty sure.
