Gotta plug my instance :)
PopHeads and fans of pop music rejoice, I have an entire instance just for you. Come and post all of your pop music theories, favorite tracks, costumes, memes, snarky comments, and all other related things. Hell, create a new community if you like!
Will be creating more as interest demands, or create one of your own, we know there's already a few fans of Camila Cabello there and I know I love CRJ :)
Oh, and to ease the stress, my registration is currently open for any lurkers
Sounds fun! Looks fun! However I am having trouble subscribing. Nothing is found when I search. Now, I know you aren't tech support but pointing me in the right direction and telling what I am doing wrong herr would be amazing.
Interesting. You can also try
https://poptalk.scrubbles.tech/c/popheads. On the website I know there's a bug where it doesn't show a loading spinner either, so it may take a few seconds after clicking search for it to show up even though it looks like it's not doing anything.Lemmy.ml is also inundated with new members right now, they're actually 404ing for me right now, so they may be having issues connecting.
Thank you for the fast response. It's really appreciated. When I follow your link I still cannot subscribe. I get "not ogged in" whe. Trying to subscribe through the communities tab. Or I get the enter thing into the search bar prompt.
Hmmm, I haven't done it through the app before, let me get back to you on this. I've been having some troubles with the app too....
And also thank you and take your time.
Of course! This is new to me, we're all just getting started. There are going to be growing pains all over the place, hell maybe I didn't set something up right. It's new, we're having fun :)
I heard "were having fun" in a very Troy Lavallee voice.
Not on an app, mobile on android here.
Oh don't go to the link, paste it into the search bar from your logged-in instance. (The other one should also have worked, but again lemmy.ml is a bit slow and may be having issues).
This is how it looked to me from the website, make sure "All, All, and All" are selected
No Bueno. If I paste the link I do not find anything.
In the search dropdown can you select "All" instead of Communities? For some reason that's been working for me
I can, and that finds results, but they are all post that Include the link. No actual ability to sub. If I find my way to the community it leads me back to the process that started my discussion here.
Thank you for all the help, you're great and awesome and productive ;), but if it's this difficult for me to sub to thing that want, then lemmy may not be for me. Keep up the amazing work and do what you do. It is appreciated!
Oh it's in your last screenshot, the Subscribe button, it is very hidden away for sure, I may open a request for them to add it to the main screen there next to Sidebar. Glad you found it though! Those are some of the pain points I think they're working on solving, some of those things you don't think of until you get some users on your app
Edit: Opened an issue for it, hopefully your pain will make it easier for future users!
The subscribe button just tells me that I am not signed in. Once again thank you for all of your time and effort and help. You rock.
