Searching for posts and joining communities (lemmy.world)

Might be missing something but how do I search for posts on Jerboa? I see a Search tab at the bottom but there's no field for me to enter what I want to search for.

Also, I've been able to join some communities successfully, but on others I see a "Pending" status. What needs to happen to change this to "Joined"?

Have you tried the left search tab? idk why there's two of them but the left one is working for me.

[–] Iwasbornaramblinman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that one works but only returns entire communities for me

Are you logged in?

!jerboa@lemmy.ml or !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml are the right comms for this kind of post in the future, btw :) This comm is intended for open-ended questions

Edit: Regarding the pending status, it's most likely lemmy.ml comms you see that status on, it's simply because there's a delay on the server because of its heavy amount of users. Sometimes you end up subscribed by itself, other times you need to try again at a later time
